Lately it seems everyone wants to have coffee with Detroit Lewis, and boy the stuff I have been a hearing.

One person told me this last week, “Erica Beck is NOT a consensus builder.

My first reaction was a small giggle, because I already knew this.

Like Duh.

Anyone who runs a closed government like she does (she is running the city, not Poops) is NOT into hearing someone else’s opinion on the matter.

The statement wasn’t from a current or former city employee but someone who knows Beck professionally.

I got the feeling this person was NOT to keen on her running for mayor.

Neither am I.

Now that the Dakota Scout has become the city’s state media I have a feeling more folks are going to want to buy me coffee. I’m all ears!

  1. I can’t agree more, she is no good. No good for employees or the city or really any municipal job

  2. Just what this city doesn’t need is another smug Mayor with a super sized ego. Who will provide the largest campaign donation, Matt Paulsen, Lloyd Properties or Poops himself?

  3. “Say, Beck makes a great N/A import beer…. Better than Heineken Zero…. just saying 🙂 ….”…..

  4. “… but, but, but, OneSiouxFalls, Paulie’s kumbaya coalition … and, and …. collaboration?!?!”

  5. 215,000$ a year salary plus all the crooked kick backs and scams, NO need to have INVESTMENTS on paper when you can appoint your friends to make 1.5 to 2MIL dollars… like mayor poops did
