Interim San Francisco Mayor Ed Lee's mustache featured in current campaign...


Click here for NY Times article.  Key quote:

"It's a reflection on how little we pay attention as voters that what we note is facial hair," My Jaye said, "and also how much time and effort is spent trying to brand people"

A local example, last night a Lake Worth friend and voter came up to me and asked who to vote for in this coming election.  I told him Triolo and Amoroso.  He asked me to repeat it, and I did two or three times.  He tried repeating the names and finally said, "So, I will vote for T and A."  I said, "Yes, you should vote for T and A." He said, "Great, easy to remember."
