Jennifer Gale Is Lost Without A Map

Everyone's favorite transient, transgendered Marine who tried to Keep Austin... Austin, but managed only 6.7% of the votes in the 2006 mayoral election, has left our town in a fresh attempt to Keep Dallas... Dallas.

We're used to seeing Gale on street corners asking us for signatures (or money for the bus), but if you listen to the video above, you'll recognize her agenda is just a tad bit recycled from her 2006 Austin campaign. And, we admit, we may not know much about Dallas politics, but what great irony if they also have a problem with protected ecosystems and relocating tech forms: "I want to maintain our aquifer by making sure our microchip companies don't locate over the aquifer so we're not polluting it."

Not only did she recycle her campaign slogan and many of her main campaign positions, but she still advertises her website jennifergale.com for campaign info, but has yet to clarify that she has moved out of Austin. Whether she campaigns here or there, it's still the best bad website we've ever seen.

While we're all pretty tired of Jennifer Gale, the populace of Dallas is just now getting into it. Yawn. Wake us up for the live television debate.

It's just not the same without the MLK t-shirt. God speed Jennifer Gail.

I agreed with pretty much everything she said in the video. Whether she has the know-how to actually bring them about (perhaps she does) is debatable. But either way, at least her objectives are in the right place.

At least she won't be singing on my damn bus anymore.

She is still more electable than Brownback.

Have you ever noticed that you don't see Amy Babich and Gale in the room at the same time?

(S)he want "more circuitous bus routes" so people can ride the bus "directly to work"? No thanks, Jennifer, I'll stick with my "non-circuitous" route.

Boy, Dallas city council members are in for a treat when this wacko belts out one of his/her bizarre songs during a meeting.
