This one's not pregnant pigs
While Florida's constitution continues to defend the basic inalienable rights of pregnant pigs and paramutuel gaming establishments, someone in Hillsborough is hoping to amend the county's charter in a potentially significant and - wait for it - progressive way.
(Via Sticks) Mary Ann Stiles has established Taking Back Hillsborough, a PAC promoting an initiative to create the office of a county mayor in Hillsborough. It's actually not that progressive an idea - in Florida both Miami-Dade and Orange have them.
If you ask me - I know you didn't, but still - this is a pretty fantastic idea, a pretty necessary one for a large and growing county. Whether you agree or not, why not at least put it up for a vote?
I just ask that no one suggest Ronda Storms for the position.
