Open thread: Two years in, England says he'll run again.

The Tribune's Daniel Suddeath provides a midterm review with Mayor England while potential challengers bivouac on the periphery, sizing up their mounts for what's sure to be two upcoming years of overweight, overwrought position jockeying.

Thoughts thus far?


TWO YEARS OF REIGN: Mayor England reflects on 2008-09, anticipates last two years of term, by Daniel Suddeath (News and Tribune)

Halfway through his return term to office, New Albany Mayor Doug England is committed to seeking re-election in 2011.

England will be 67 years old by the time his position is up for grabs again, and he’s coming off neck and back operations this year. But the Democrat said there’s unfinished business to conduct.

While I do not think Mayor England is doing a bad job, I think I would be more inclined to vote for some "new blood" in the primary election (of course pending who is on the democratic primary ticket, our choices may well be limited to England and Denhart!!)

I have nothing at all against Mayor England, I just think we need some sweeping change in the political stock pile in this city.
