Hugo Chavez's worst nightmare to step down

Possible contenders
Michael Pahre lists people who might run for the seat.
Glad to see the back of him
I'm sure that McDermott is a lovely man if you know him personally. And I hope that he has decent constituent services. But in terms of the public side of his job, I don't see how, in his time on the Council, he's helped anyone but real estate developers (and the handful who liked his pathetic anti-Chavez rant).
