The Ann Arbor News editorial page today tries to goad local Republicans into naming a mayoral candidate, already, though the filing deadline is more than a month off. One local R says the party "may be on life support."

Too bad there aren't non-partisan elections in this hard-core liberal university town (it's where my parents met, by the way). The News notes this'd mean...

.....candidates advocating positions Republicans favor could more easily get elected. But that's not about to happen anytime soon.

Hmmn. Wonder why?

It's not as though the current Democratic city administration exactly has its act together, as The News points out in this editorial on a botched local election.
