Like RICHARD MILHOUS NIXON on election night 1960, failed mayoral candidate KRISTENE PHILLIPS never bothered to call to congratulate the successful candidate, Mayor Nancy Shaver.
No phone call.
It's been six (6) days.
"No class."
That's what JFK said about Nixon: "same way going out as when they came in. No class." (Expletives deleted by the late Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr., who wrote the introduction to my 1989 biography of President Jimmy Carter for Chelsea House Publishers).
By the way, has anyone seen the for-sale mayoral candidate estimable erstwhile weather girl, Hate Radio station WFOY owner KRIS PHILLIPS? Is the weathered weather girl still in St. Augustine?
Is KRISSIE doing the weather from Alaska?
Will she be nominated by President DONALD TRUMP for one of 4100 Schedule C appointments?
Will she join equally jejune and unqualifed candidates working for a crazy president?
Will KRISSIE be named Ambassador to the Seychelles? Then we might say "she sells Seychelles by the seashore."
In secret, behind locked gates, our Nation's Oldest City dumped a landfill in a lake (Old City Reservoir), while emitting sewage in our rivers and salt marsh. Organized citizens exposed and defeated pollution, racism and cronyism. We elected a new Mayor. We're transforming our City -- advanced citizenship. Ask questions. Make disclosures. Demand answers. Be involved. Expect democracy. Report and expose corruption. Smile! Help enact a St. Augustine National Park and Seashore. We shall overcome!
