I haven't followed Ken a lot as I largely didn't take him seriously all this time but what I have heard/read makes him come across as a guy who thinks that because he was successful in business that he knows how gov't should work and can fix that. He seems to be the classic Conservative who believes that gov't should be run like a business or the college football coach who gets hired by a NFL team only to find out that he's totally outmatched.
I've never gotten the sense from Ken that he's in this due to a desire to perform public service - he's barely knows his policies and barely knows how bylaws and processes work (his 3x3x3 plan for permits is laughable).
I hope I'm wrong and/or that his councillors (many of whom have experience and some of whom have good ideas) are strong enough that they do the heavy lifting as I fear we get a George W. Bush type of mayor.
