by declaring he's the longest serving city councilor

Why isn't this viewed as a negative? Enough of these life long politicians. We need new people with fresh ideas.

If it's at large I'll even sign your nomination papers for the 2017 election. It's too late to get papers in for the 2015 election, I will write you in though, if you so desire.

With just one challenger he has a better chance of being replaced.

After September.

I'm hoping it's Andrea Campbell.

How would you compile an in one view chart listing all Boston City Council Candidates?

could this mean the return of a certain calligraphically challenged U-Hub favorite?

Doug just needs to cross out Sheriff and write Councillor.

Personally, if I failed at getting elected, I'd take down the signs with my name on them, but that's just me.

dvdoff, you KNOW you want that!

it would be kind of fun watching him flounder around here again.
