ok, so let me get this straight.....
only a few months after almost becoming mayor of the City and upending local politics and damaging the local Democratic party and promoting green, green, green party crap
Gonzalez has decided to completely abandon city hall

ok, whatever, very strange indeed, especially since he only recently fought to win the presidency of the board of supervisors, and again, almost became mayor

but the real big news story to me is how the Chronicle got scooped on this major news story by the little-paper-that's-really-turning-itself-around, the Examiner. I mean, the Chronicle doesn't even has this story in today's paper or on it's website (and it's almost noon on Monday), and yet it's front page in the Examiner today. I know the Chronicle has prioritized local news lowly of late, but this is pretty bad reporting on their part. This is major news, and the Examiner got it. I've been thinking and saying this for a while now, the Examiner is really getting its act together and turning in great news, especially on the local front. The Chronicle better not get too complacent.

and again, Gonzalez is leaving City Hall after all the last year and everything? whatever.....
