This got us to wondering who else would be likely to endorse Mike Farmer, and who would not be likely to endorse Mike Farmer.  After thinking about it, we came up with these two lists:

THOSE NOT LIKELY TO ENDORSE 
MIKE FARMER FOR CITY COUNCIL

1.  Bernie Madoff
2.  Paris Hilton
3.  The LVL Gang Members
4.  Fidel Castro
5.  Prince Charles
6.  Ruth Madoff
7.  Rev. Al Sharpton
8.  Carol Stone's mother
9.  Nancy Pelosi
10.  Osama Bin Laden

THOSE THAT ARE LIKELY TO ENDORSE MIKE FARMER FOR CITY COUNCIL

1.  The Pope
2.  Captain Sully Sullenberger
3.  Bernie Madoff investors
4.  Nancy Reagan
5.  Tiger Woods
6.  The Mormon Tabernacle Choir
7.  Heirs of John Wayne
8.  Rudy Giuliani
9.  Angelina Jolie
10.  Sarah Palin (if she finds work)

Seriously though, Friends of Sunnyside, the primary ballots are coming in our mailboxes right now, and there are many reasons to vote for Mike Farmer in the District 2 Primary.

When Mike Farmer was on the Council in the past, he voted for balanced budgets, keeping taxes low, and supported law enforcement in fighting crime.  This is the kind of leadership we need from our City Council.

With Mike Farmer on our City Council, we can once again have a budget that is sound.  Remember when we had lower taxes, and also Parks and Recreation?  Remember when the City Council was adding police officers instead of cutting them?

We can change the direction of Sunnyside government for positive outcomes.  

Vote for Mike Farmer in District 2.
