Would have won if it was just a "campaign against locals."
cry me a river of donkeys...
Posted by diatriber on Wed., Sep 21, 2005 at 8:33 AM"We knew that it was going to be tough because we weren't really running a campaign against locals," Bauer said. "We were running a campaign against Channel 2, the Journal newspaper and the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Bauer forgot the Riverfront Times. Mike Seely's pieces were particularly damning...simply by virtue of being fair. :-D

Posted by anonymous on Wed., Sep 21, 2005 at 9:45 AMBauer has been a candidate many times: State Rep, Alderman, Comptroller. He is the sort of fellow who might in his lifetime run for every local office. He will run for something, though perhaps not alderman as an Independent or State Rep. since he has been there and done that. 2006 options: State Senate, License Collector, Collector of Revenue, Recorder of Deeds, Circuit Court Clerk. It's time to get serious about Bauer. He's no longer just a 24th Ward problem.
Posted by Howard on Wed., Sep 21, 2005 at 10:28 AMDon't forget the possibilities of Bauer for Congress or Bauer for Auditor in '06. Even if he takes a pass in '06 we may see him make a run at one of the statewide offices in '08.
Posted by Bauer4President? on Wed., Sep 21, 2005 at 10:50 AMI think he will run to repalce Gordon Baum at the Council of Conservative Citizens. Thats a good office for him.
