Today, on this 12 blogoversary of HorsesAss, we find the editorial board unleashing a blizzard of opinions over whether or not Seattle Mayor Ed Murray should run for Mayor. Not all opinions & geographies have been heard from, thus far. So this faction of the HA Editorial Board finds it necessary to weigh in. We call upon Seattle Mayor Ed Murray to NOT run for Mayor of Redmond. Seriously, Mayor Murray has not yet made any public statements, written or verbal, on whether or not he will run for Mayor of Redmond. We call upon Mayor Murray to clarify his intentions in this regard and then just not do it if he decides to do it. Thank you.
