Cliff Borofsky resigns....

Well this is absolutely interesting. Good Old Cliff Borofsky decided to hang up his hat and move on out of San Antonio. Lets read on to the Express News Article by Elizabeth Allen....

"Bexar County Elections Administrator Cliff Borofsky resigned today to take the same post in Williamson County.
Borofsky, who submitted his letter to County Judge Nelson Wolff today, said “nothing in particular” led to his leaving. His resignation is effective Aug. 11.
“I’ve been eight years here,” Borofsky said. “It’s been a good stint. I think it’s just time for me to move.”
Williamson County is north of Austin. Its county seat is Georgetown.
Since 2001, Borofsky has overseen an office that made the transition from paper ballots to electronic voting. He was elections manager for County Clerk Gerry Rickhoff before county commissioners resurrected the elections administrator post.
Borofsky came close to losing his job in 2002 after problems counting a two-page ballot meant it took nearly 30 hours to tally 277,000 ballots and forced Wolff to apologize publicly for the delay.
But Wolff and the rest of the elections commission kept Borofsky on, and Wolff said the parting is friendly.
“This is a very difficult job, no matter who’s doing it,” Wolff said.
He said he suggested a year ago, once he was confident that the elections office was in good shape, that Borofsky see what other opportunities are out there.
“I feel you’ve got limited life in a job like this,” Wolff said. “It’s pretty politically charged.”
Borofsky said the political pressures that come with the gig are all right with him.
“It has its challenges, obviously, for the world to see, but it’s good work,” he said. “I’m not going to be rich, but OK.”

And did anybody think to ask him why he thought it was so important to move to Williamson County? Why go from such a large City to such a small place? When people leave for small towns often it is because they are trying to escape what they did where everyone knows their name. This begs the question, "Just what is Borofsky's real motive in moving to small little Williamson County...?" This seems to me to convenient of a move for him and it seems it was done in backdoor discussions that usually mean no good. This story was too perfect to be true. Borofsky resigning and Wolf saying, "Sure no problem good buddy, have a good time." It doesn't sound right to me and I don't buy it. I just think that it is rather convenient that it is after the closest election San Antonio can remember in recent history. Lets all remember...3800 votes, Stone Oak Parkway voting at 9:30p.m when the polls close at 7:00p.m,. the switch to paper ballots last minute for the runoff. I don't buy it and I think it deserves more analysis.

Three championships!! How many more?

To those who are still Spurs skeptics...I'd like to say, "Who is your Daddy?" Spurs fans don't give the Spurs enough credit for their championship play. Let's be honest...these are the beginings of a dynasty. With Manu and Duncan locked down for a while we are ensured many more good times come around June of each year. I personally believe that if Parker doesn't improve over the next couple of years...that it will be his turn to move on to another championship caliber team. Manu plays the point better than Tony can. Now before everyone hates on me because I pointed out what we don't like to hear...I would like to offer that I have been one of Tony's biggest defenders against Jason Kidd and trading of any kind. Let's face it though Tony--You need to work on your jump shot Man. And on top of that you need to not be scared of the ball. Tony needs to become a go to guy for the Spurs. If he does...then it will be a nonstop party for San Antonio when the kids get out of school. If he doesn't, Steve Nash is sure hungry for his first championship.

I'm back.......

Hello everyone,
Back from vacation and I would just like to let you know that the fight is not over for Latinos. SA Observer has written many interesting posts that have yet to be answered by the Hardberger elite and their protectors. I will be joining forces with the SA Observer in that I will NOT allow Hardberger a free pass in his two year term as other bloggers might. Too bad I couldn't get a copy of that map from the Express News that shows how San Antonio voted. It really puts this city to shame that the majority of anglo voters can't bring themselves to vote for a latino.
