The character indicator here Chuck or Brian, oh I mean Dan, is the means by which the furniture and art collection were acquired or in Graham's case looted from Whitman Walker Clinic.

Which is interesting, because Aravosis has never had a meaningful role in any political campaign in DC, ever. He's a superb gadfly blogger on nat'l issues, and used a blog to take some bites out of former Chief Ramsey back in the day, but zero campaign chops, zero. Probably couldn't name all the DC council members to save his life, nor ANCs in W1, nor top issues in each 'hood. Nonstarter.

I say - go for it.

Let's groom some more leaders in Ward 1. There aren't enough.

In the absence of any evidence to the contrary it would seem that Loza's plea deal is still being negotiated. Odd that negotiations about a simple %1500.00 pay off would be so complex. I'll second that bet that Graham does not see another term and raise you one. Graham will not serve out this term.

From his Facebook page it would seem Weaver has John Aravosis on his side who has a considerably stronger intellect then Chuck Thies. Aravosus is credible. Aravosis knows how to play smart and he knows how and when to play tough. Thies only knows how to play dirty. Aravosis is disciplined, Thies is angry and reactionary. Cream of the crop versus bottom of the barrel. Let the games begin!
