2011 IN REVIEW: More booing Gaspar

Logan Jenkins of San Diego Union Tribune
January 9, 2011.

"A soft brick — the Bonehead First Play award — to freshman Encinitas Councilwoman Kristen Gaspar for failing in dramatic fashion to live up to her campaign pledge to bridge, not widen, the bitterly personal schism on the Encinitas council."
"By nominating her political supporters (and likely mentors) — Councilmen Jim Bond and Jerome Stocks — for mayor and vice mayor respectively, Gaspar, 30, demonstrated one of two things about her political character:

She’s either naive or she’s secretly spoiling for a fight while pretending to be Ms. Sweetness and Light."
Another alternative is that she is the hand selected spokesmodel, a "seemingly" non-threatening, young, white, female, family-friendly delivery system for the majority talking points. This is only effective with the wrong-headed, thick-headed or heads up the ass sheeple.
