Why this outsider insurgent is getting traction in the race for mayor

Early in this mayoral election campaign, I chatted with Anthony Furey, who had then just announced he was running for mayor. He blamed me for that.

He said that after reading a column I’d written about Mike Layton wrestling with whether they could balance being a good parent with being a good mayor, he’d spoken with his wife about whether you could be a “dad mayor” and she told him that he had to run.

God help us if Chairman Chow gets in.
