Are there going to be six more years of “ineffective and unfair?”

Oh this is classic Supervisor verbiage. It is consistent with what I wrote in the “What did he say? What did he say?” piece. We have to thank Sandra Tan of the Buffalo News for sharing her interview material with the public. Here is part of it:
Q: You originally said you would only serve for one term. Do you still feel that way?
A: I still very strongly feel that way.
Q: So in two years you won’t run again?
A: I’ll see. If I’ve been really ineffective, and I see I’ve been unfair to the people, I might run once more. But as you can see, this is not a job for me. I’m not looking for a job here. I still have a job at the university. I can still retire and enjoy my life.
All the time, my children are saying, “Dad, what are you doing? Quit. Because, Dad, you’re so old.” And I say, “Guys, you do not know the passion in me. I came from a country with zero money, and in four years I did my PhD., and within 10 years we built a house, two cars; I sent you guys to colleges. I couldn’t do it in India. So this is a great society. We must keep it as good as we can.”

Is it just me or is it like listening to the old “Who’s on First Skit”.
If I’m reading this right, he says he’ll run again if he has been totally ineffective? Now that is a true politician!
