"And it will be from Brendas new downtown diner. Wait, we may be on to something here, maybe she could be the new economic gal." After the non producing Ferry took a hike, and before the Mayor did an apparent favor by hiring the ex-alderman's son in law with zero experience in this field, it was being rumored that Brenda stepped up to the plate ready and willing to fill this position and get this city moving. I heard the Mayor refused to even consider her for the position, and turned around and hired this preacher that did EVEN less for the salary, than his predecessor (if that's possible). I don't know how this Mayor can look anyone in the eye after hiring this unqualified, accomplishing zero, sheepish preacher. Adding insult to injury, allowing him to stay in this position for years drawing a salary for doing absolutely nothing! It's really aggravating and frustrating to think of the possibilities and opportunities our city may have missed out on, all because of the Mayor's insecurities preventing him from hiring Ms. Whitaker while it was possible. If the truth was known, he felt too threatened by her abilities, and feared she would end up running in the Mayor's race against him. She would have won by a landslide!
