Video from Oct 11th Sebastopol Candidates Forum

Here's most of the evening on video! It was an excellent and informative evening. It was unfortunate that Colleen had laryngitis. I thought Robert Jacobs was particularly well spoken. I think he as a bright future in politics! John Eder was also quite eloquent. Kathleen was, well, Kathleen. Kathy Austin's prior experience on the council showed, and is clearly thoughtful, though her support for the CVS/Chase project along with a more development friendly orientation does resonate with me. Colleen's heart (if not her throat :wink:) was in the right place, strongly aligning herself with Occupy and the 99% but much of her attention was focused on national level issues, sometimes using John Jenkel's rhetoric.

No! I meant: "Kathy Austin's prior experience on the council showed, and is clearly thoughtful, though her support for the CVS/Chase project along with a more development friendly orientation does NOT resonate with me."

Thanks for catching that! :waccosun:
