Sam Adams always looks like a fish out of water no matter what he does. Oh for the days when Bud Clark was mayor! Adams reminds me of when Dem Presidential Candidate Michael Dukakis was seen riding around in an Army tank, his head sticking out of the turret hatch, wearing an oversized helmet. At the time, people commented that that image alone may have cost him the election because he looked so much like snoopy. My objection to Adams has nothing to do with his being gay, it's with the fact that he seems such a marshmallow. Our next gay mayor should be a leather bear.
