Several of us have gotten together over coffee and have agreed that we are "tired" of Ed Shadid claiming the "Progressive mantle". Now I define the word "Progressive" pretty loosely because I know many politically conservative people who are progressive on urban issues and issues of positive progress in our city.

Therefore, we are launching our own initiative of volunteer support for Mayor Mick. We think that he has earned it.

Please join this facebook group here- www.facebook.com/progressivesformayorcornett

We will use this page to help organize volunteer opportunities and make sure that the word gets out about the Mayor, his accomplishments, and how our city is poised to continue to move forward.
