Recently it was made public that "the Honorable Mayor of Memphis, Dr. Willie Herenton" (I had the fire extinguisher ready, for I was quite expecting the keyboard to catch fire at that statement), has is considering running for Congress against Steve Cohen, in TN's district 9.
King Willie, Congressman? There were tons complaints about it in the paper... but seriously, King Willie is a democrat, Cohen is a democrat, therefore it doesn't matter which is elected, because District 9 is a Democrat district. Democrat either way, so I don't care which of them is elected, because if district 9 elects a Republican, I'd expect that the Apocalypse is coming.
If King Willie is elected to Congress he WILL HAVE TO VACATE THE MAYORAL POSITION. This opens up, for the first time in almost 2 decades, the possibility that Memphis will get a decent Mayor who will work to put it back other the map for something other than crime, and scandal.
No way. He is going to be in Congress AND the Mayor. It's just not happening. The only way we can get rid of King Willie is a stab through the heart with a stake, a splash of holy water, cut his head off, shoot him with a silver bullet, and burn him, then bury the ashes in holy ground. Otherwise he will be a lonesome wander on the earth for all eternaty.
