Remember Sam Crump, our Sebastopol Mayor of a decade ago? At one point, he had the highest number of votes of any City Council candidate in <?xml:namespace prefix = st1 ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:smarttags" /><st1:place w:st="on">Sebastopol</st1:place>. Not sure if that record still holds. He aligned himself with self-described liberal/moderate Democrats such as Kathy Austin and Ken Foley who were all too eager to join with him to defeat the progressives.<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

Of course, when he was here, he didn't talk much about his anti-choice, anti-gay, anti-immigrant, anti-public school views, though, to his credit, he was very much upfront about being against taxes and so-called “big government.”<o:p></o:p>

<o:p></o:p>

He is running for one of the two Arizona State Legislative seats open in his district. Check out his website https://www.samcrump.com/ (https://www.samcrump.com/) and maybe you will appreciate our current City Council a little more.<o:p></o:p>

That fact that he wasn't upfront about his orientation was the worst part.
