An open letter to Dave Rollins

Dear Dave,

Hi, we've never met. I'm BlueDiegan. As you can tell by my name I am Progressive, Liberal whatever. I like your magazine and read it almost every week. It's funny and you have some great reporters working for you. However your recent editorials have caused me to speak out on some things you have said lately about the Mayoral race and the Democratic Party.

Now I wished we lived in a perfect world but we don't. Especially when it comes to policies that can help people with Health Care coverage or to ensure there are enough public safety in our streets but we don't and sometimes you have to remind the people on your own side not to trade progress from some phantom of bipartisanship. I wished Republicans would actually reach out and work with Democrats but they don't. Just look at what's happening in Washington, in Sacramento and even here in San Diego. Republicans will not reach out and there is no such thing as non-partisan races anymore. I mean if Dems had taken Max Baucus to the woodshed maybe we'd have a public option on Health Care Reform and maybe if Dems too Tony Young as well maybe he wouldn't be voting so much against his own constituents.

In regards to Donna for Mayor, well I would like to reference my previous post here.

Anyways thanks for reading and maybe layoff the political stuff for a while.
