Re: Ron Kaye for City Controller

Great topic.  How the Republican Party needs to change to grow.  No problem shaking up the status quo.

Bob Huff just called to say he won't be able to speak on Tuesday night 9/2 since he will still be in Sacto in budget negotiations.  Do you want to speak on 9/2?

Hmmm...any suggestions?

I do have some ideas on how the Republican Party needs to change to grow, but I might be shaking up the status quo (Just like McCain-Palin).

By the way I first wrote about Palin as a potential candidate over a year ago.

We can do that.  Send me the topic you want to cover and how long you want to speak.

Sure! In Sept or Oct maybe? What day do you guys meet again?

Between you and me, Ron was aware of my "plans" and has privately given me my blessing.  Walter Moore is encouraging him and I believe if there were enough people pushing Ron he would run.

 I sure will.  Ron is liked and admired by members of our club.

Did you still want to speak to our group?

Gary,

Today I announced on the Mayor Sam Blog an effort to convince former Daily News Editor and the Founder of Saving LA - Ron Kaye - to run for City Controller of Los Angeles.

You can read more about the effort to get Ron to run and sign our vitrual petition at:

http://ronkaye.mayorsam.org/

Ron has covered LA politics for 30 years.  No one knows the ins and outs of City Hall more than Ron.  No one is more qualified to be the taxpayers' watchdog.

Would you let your group know about this? I am sure many of them would support Ron Kaye over Wendy Greuel.
