15 Thoughts on “Ten Haken Launches Mayoral Video an hour before his Press Conference

    For a second I thought I was watching someone sell me a self help program. But in all fairness Ill listen to what he has to say before making a choice.

    Ugh.

  3. He wants to ‘Develop’ people?!!!! That line right there should scare the living Sh*t out of you!

    I heard he served Soylent Green and Kool-Aid at the presser.

    You get Ten Haken for the price of one. Nobody can offer a better deal.

    Young, attractive, successful, Republican but not in a creepy old guy sort of way, and most importantly, does not currently carry the stench of your highly dysfunctional city council.

    He’s going to win, and it’s not even going to be close. It helps that your mayoral field is currently terrible. Maybe that’ll change, but I doubt it.

  6. Just great, Ron Popeil for Mayor, I haven’t been this impressed since the brief shining moment of the Mooch…

    To plow streets, maintain roads, and sweep them better doesn’t require personal development, it merely requires appropriate allocation of resources and personnel…

    But oh well, we live in an age where image is often allowed to trump substance…. Paul Thune, I mean, Paul Ten Haken for Mayor!…..

  7. Horndog, I’m afraid you are right. Only 8 years ago people fell for Huether, and now a younger Republican version is rolling in, and they’ll cave again. Hell, I would even vote for Diamond Jim before Paul!

    This also made me chuckle;

    Paul, I wasn’t confused, but I actually comprehend how names work. Doesn’t matter anyway, because I wasn’t voting for you.

    Fun fact since Paul is sharing. The real spelling of my last name is Ehrismann, but we all dropped the extra ‘n’ 60 years ago.

  8. “Hell, I would even vote for Diamond Jim before Paul!”

    Amen to that……

    I’m a senior citizen, you know one of those people who follows local issues closely and always votes.

    The last thing I want is 4 more years of a ‘marketing guy’!

  10. Imagine that, Pitty got an exclusive interview with Paul. Wonder if it was some kind of trade agreement with Pitty and the whole musical servers?

    Macho erection logo at the end. So, he’s naive?

  12. Is the arrow a middle finger?

  13. Waiting for better candidate on August 30, 2017 at 12:41 pm said:

    I want a common sense candidate who is fiscally grounded. So far, none of the announced candidates make the grade. And don’t be naive. Diamond Jim is a Huether clone on a motorcycle.

    I also want a candidate who has some experience and time under his/her belt. As I observe the current council members, although smart, several of them simply have not lived long enough to experience some of life’s hard knocks. These hard knock experiences are great teachers which bring forth humility and understanding and the ability to actually relate to the common citizen with empathy.

    Empty rhetoric is simply empty rhetoric! I am tired of it.

    I’m with Clause. Ten Haken’s tireless self-promotion could make Huether blush.
