personal attacks not helpful

It seems a bit premature, misguided, and uncalled for to attack a guy for announcing to run for Council. It could be, and should be, a chance for residents to serve the City, even a civic responsibility in some peoples eyes. I mean, you could question his support for a new gym, annexation, and any of a dozen other projects he supports that are in close agreement with the Mayors, Garcia's, and the City Manager's agendas, those would be fair game, and he could explain his positions and rationale behind those decisions. Its not clear how personal attacks of questionable validity are helping move the discussions forward, toward a resolution regarding any candidates qualifications or hopes and dreams for the residents of Miami Springs.
