His heart is in the right place, but he offended many Cinti Dems when he changed his vote re building of a streetcar immediately after being elected to city Council. ( He was against it before the election, as was the majority that was elected, and for it after the election. There are some long memories around here.

However, he has access to many donors and potential donors, and, hopefully, has a future in Ohio Dem politics.
