That's the headline on the editorial by Marcos Breton in the Sac Bee.
Breton uses the example of West Sac Mayor Christopher Cabaldon running for Assembly as an example of a 'best mind' 'fleeing local politics'.
When you add the exodus of people such as Cabaldon, what's left is a passel of plodders, unproven talent, a few good eggs and some real stinkers.
I like Cabaldon. But I sincerely hope our local politics is the shithole Breton makes it out to be. Shouldn't local politics be a trying ground for people to move on to bigger things? Isn't that how it's always been?
