Here’s a fun bit of Sukhee slush, harvested from an old Register editorial in 2011 when Suke had decided to run for Congress – not in our congressional district, of course. And of course he eventually lost badly.

Here’s the gem: “The mayor says his years working in customer service (he managed a Circuit City) will help him ‘work both sides of the aisle.'”

Presumably this means being able to play nice with everybody, and not just demonstrating a knowledge of both toaster ovens and computer peripherals.

Still, there is something telling here. Salesmen have to be nice, they have to agree with the disagreeable and they have to push a product. This is not leadership this is retail marketing.

And here’s a disturbing quotation that seems to confirm everything we already know about the Sukester:

“Mayor Kang always has a smile on his face and scripted line about any topic you can bring up. But voters prefer conviction to platitudes, even if they disagree with what is being said.”

The vacant smile, bland platitudes, and an underlying belief that what is best for Sukhee is what is best for all of us – the unpleasant aroma of the desperate, perpetual candidate emanates therefrom.
