It appears that Bob and company have done anything but
what the subject line asks.

Every post from his team seems to take a shot a
Ortega, either directly or through the ol' "its not
what 'I' said, it's what the Mayor said", line. 

>From Ortega side its been Dennis Hill. Only after he
was called out by Bob. 

This GSE thing must be a some kind of thorn to
generate the return fire I've seen.

What I got out of the letter from the Mayor? 
"Chris Coleman is Kelly-Lite. Why go with him when you
can have the real thing?"

Ortega can draw distinct, clear contrasts between his
record and focus than that of the Mayors. The choice
beween those two won't be muddled in middle. 

I look at the long list of names supporting Ortega's
bid. It's very diverse in its make-up of race,
geography, economic class and political philosophy. To
me that says a helluva lot. 

People who count out a three time winner must be
putting in another factor outside of money that they
won't admit.

Ortega is a proven winner and strong candidate.
