4. The Bright Side: mayoral positions are not truly partisan. Which sucks because.....

here in TX, the ONLY Dem representation I have until presidential level is our Dem mayor!

Mayors don't write laws.

Just picture your new dude carrying around an oversized pair of scissors, opening up the new strip mall. ;)

5. Tough break man, it always hurts when the good guys lose....

I speak after living decades with some heartbreaking political losses....It never gets easier.
