Danger Will Robinson Danger By Matt Rexroad on Thursday, May 31, 2007 @ 10:56 PM :: 2 Comments :: Blog   The political folks in Woodland are all talking about the potential City Council candidacy of former County Supervisor Frank Sieferman.  At this point Sieferman is just one of several candidates that are former office holders considering a run for Council in 2008.  The list includes: Mayor Dave Flory Councilman Jeff Monroe Councilman Art Pimentel Former Supervisor Frank Sieferman Former Mayor Mel Losoya Former Councilwoman Martie Dote That would be a wild field if it were to come to fruition -- it won't. Sieferman has several thousand dollars in the bank left over from our little tussle in November.  Good for him. As I understand it -- Sieferman plans on running against corruption in City Hall.  Good luck. Here are the problems with that -- Grand Jury reports during his time on the Baord of Supervisors were slightly more tilted toward the county. Sieferman would have to make those charges personally against Flory but not Monroe and Pimentel.  Hard to do. Woodland is just about to get a new City Manager.  New adminstrations get a honeymoon period. There are a couple City Councilmembers, one former City Councilmember, and  a newly elected County Supervisor that is a former City Councilmember that are not on the ballot.  They would likely not take too kindly to being called "corrupt" by a City Council candidate.  Expect a prompt response from some or all of them. The voters continuoulsy have shown confidence in Woodland city government. Take a look at Mesure E results. Sieferman should consider this move very carefully.  I think it would be a very bad move for him -- but that is just my opinion. I have yet to find anyone that thinks he would actually win.  Several have said he would be close -- but all think he finished fourth or worse. I will be with Flory and Pimentel for sure.  Open to a third candidate.

At least they are fitting the diverse critera required in a WWF Smack Down....should be cheap entertainment.
