Down Goes Sammy!

Don'tCryForHe
SammytinaVille



There were no green buses circling the Marriott Pinnacle hotel in Downtown Vancouver Sunday night.

Which was unfortunate in the extreme for the current, and soon to be former, Mayor of Lotusland, Sam 'NoWards' Sullivan.

Because the man who attempted to patent the term 'EcoDensity' is done.

And Lotuslandians won't have him to kick around anymore, all for want of 80 lousy membership votes which, apparently, couldn't be bought for all the love or money (ie. $500K?) in his massive campaign war chest.

Heckfire!

That coulda been a whole lotta green* for a few lucky contenders if they'd played their cards and/or Yaletown pied-a-terrista condos right.

As for Sammy himself - what did he get?

Not sure, exactly.

But there is one thing we do know for sure.....

....This time around Sammy didn't get much of that vaunted 'homeless vote' (watch the clip/skip to the end)**.

Oh boy.

*Rumour has it that the 'green' required for the original bus was a pittance in comparison.
**Not that there is that much of it to get in far flung CremeVille or at their hotel of choice. Ha!
Mr. Sullivan says he will now back Mr. Ladner all the way.... Sure thing....Regardless, any and all council meetings between now and the election are sure going to be interesting and any fireworks are even more sure to make Quinn's Quiz on the (only?) high point of theCluffMaster Flash's Thursday morning show).
