What a schmuck. I know it's all nonsense but thought some of you might add a bit of humor to the article. Problem is that his lowly servants (us) within the city are going to re-elect him.

you'd think that out of all the people in seattle, someone better than that idiot would get elected.

Seattle politics are so messed up! They keep electing what jobs like Nichols and McDermott! Ughh!

He wore out his knee pads to get appointed.

Most liberal towns all a good liberal needs to do to get re-elected is keep the parks safe, potholes filled and the roads free of snow. Nickels is 0 for 3 yet will get 80% of the vote. Doesn't say much about the city folks does it!

But he means well

The only real problem is that if you think Nickels is bad, you should have seen the candidates on the previous ballets.

NOfukingway am I gonna vote for Mike the Mover, or some other retard that got themselves on the ballet.

I haven't looked at who is running against him this year, but I sure as hell hope there's a normal, sane, competent person.....

I'd be willing to vote for ANYONE other than this toole in the coming election.

We're about to open a light rail line from almost downtown to almost the airport that cost billions. He pushed it HARD. Finally we get a tv news story that there is ZERO parking at any of the stations or anywhere along the line. Who's going to get in a bus to make it to the station, get on the rail, and then transfer to another form of transit to make it to the airport? It takes 12 minutes to DRIVE from downtown to the airport.

$0.20 per plastic bag.....? The SLUT....? If he gets re-elected I'm going on a serious bender. Maybe long enough so I can get one of the rooms the taxpayers are paying for in which alcoholics get their booze delivered to them at the door step.......

James Donalson is running. I bet he's able to drive his own car to city hall. That right there would be an improvement.

Whatever doesn't work in Cal we make sure it doesn't work here also. We're usually about 2 years behind. How 'bout them self cleaning toilets? Hahahaha!

I agree! He should not have crossed the Firefighters Picket Line. Nickel's will always find a loop hole that allows him to take a sh!t on us, whether it's the million dollar toilets, forfeiting the $30,000,000 that Clay Bennet was to pay for him allowing the Sonics to go, or the billion dollar Sound Transit that doesn't deliver us to the desired destinations, the Airport and Downtown. Another money hole is the Lake Union trolley. Do you know anyone that has used it? I don't! Get this......he want a 3rd term. Absolutely Amazing........
