From a recent Kevin Johnson for Mayor campaign email, listing the recent activities of the campaign:
3. Thought you knew everything there was to know about “The Dunk”, Kevin’s infamous thunder-dunk on NBA Hall-of-Fame center Hakeem Olajuwon — one of the most famous NBA clips of all time? Think again, and check out an amazing video where Kevin tells — in his own words — how it really went down…see the “Recent Videos” section at our homepage http://www.kevinjohnsonformayor.com, or email this link (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8kidpegzfFc) to your friends.
As always, from The Simpsons, “Brother’s Little Helper“:
Bart: But why, Mr McGwire?
Mark McGwire: Do you want to know the terrifying truth? Or do you want to see me sock a few dingers!
Everyone: Dingers! Dingers!
(Mark McGwire socks a dinger, and as everyone looks at the dinger, he takes the info from the satellite.)
Mark McGwire: Yoink.
Do you want a mayor who talks boring tax stuff? Or do you want a mayor who can dunk over Hakeem freakin Olajuwon??!! You decide, Sacramento…
The Sac Rag 
I think the preferred nomenclature for the campaign is the hipped up “KJFM” rather than the spelled out “Kevin Johnson for Mayor.”

I like to say “K.J. for May-May.”

The question: do you want an ineffectual, boring and not especially charismatic mayor who pretty spends half her time wasting money on “environmental” junkets, or do you want a rich guy endorsed by one of the most corrupt pro-developer city councilmen / past mayors of all time?
YOU BE THE JUDGE.

(OMG, I would totally vote for Kevin Johnson, but we live in the unincorporated part of Sacramento County. I will still write him a check, however. He seems like a nice guy, and Lord knows we need a change in this region!)

Not being terribly fond of either candidate, and a legal resident of the City so I can vote in the mayor’s race. (Early and often, as they say in Chicago.)
I’m wondering if perennial candidate/bail bondsman/bounty hunter Leon Padilla will be running? (I don’t think he’s declared to date, but don’t imagine that he would disinclined to mount a well-financed write-in campaign.) Oh, was that a double negative??? ;(
I think it’s time we had a bounty hunter run the town…heck, we have a former action star as governor!

Yes, Leonard Padilla is a candidate, as are Muriel Strand and a few others. There’s a quick & dirty look at each of them in this week’s SN&R.

I love Dick Jones’ ringing self-endorsement:
“I feel awful that this is the best we can do, to have people like me running for mayor”
Errrrr…. Yeah! Huh?

I’m just surprised that Dick Jones was able to to shrug off the taint of the whole Robocop scandal.
