I've never been a big Steve Brown fan and I'm pro-TDK. You guys are idiots for not going through with it.

I'm leaning toward Brown in this race. Doug Warner has done a lot backdoor stuff to make everyone turn against the people in real estate development and Ramsey is in tight with Doug.

Harold Logsdon was my choice for mayor and I'm sticking with him. I don't run out on people.

I had a lot of disagreements with Brown on local issues but I think we need to shake things up at the state level. He works hard and I'll say he's honest.

I supported Harold Logsdon as a bunch who know me on this site will tell you, but I had the guts to come out and admit the error of my ways. The stuff Steve Brown said was true. I believed the suck-ups like Bob Lenox, Hollis Harris and Joel Cowan, and look what we got: Harold Kick Us In The Teeth Logsdon.

Captainsarcasm is complaining about what? His blogger name truly fits.

Hey, great job Steve Brown and company. Compared to Captainsarcasm’s pick, Harold Logsdon, Steve comes off looking like George Washington and Ronald Reagan wrapped into one.

This is what Captainsarcasm doesn't like about Steve Brown:

1. Our council pulled the city out of the biggest budget shortfall (across the board pay increases of over $750,000, excessive spending, added 14 new staff positions and roll the millage rate back at the same time) in the city's history in the midst of the worst economy in the city's history. Took bold steps and showed fiscal discipline by making immediate budget cuts in 2002 in excess of $1 million and cut over $10 million of city projects in the public improvement program.

2. Created the strongest environmental protection ordinances (tree preservation, stormwater) in the city's history.

3. More funds appropriated for roads and cart paths (a record $66 million with an additional $11 million from SPLOST) than any other time in the city's history.

4. City's Livable Centers Initiative (LCI) program won nearly $2 million in grants and was given regional recognition.

5. The city's bond rating was elevated to the highest ranking in the city's history with only two local governments in the entire state ranking higher.

9. Created the city's first ban on smoking to protect the health of the citizens. Our ordinance became a model for the state ban.
