So long, Mr. Mayor

December 31st, 2007 by Erik Deckers · No Comments

Bart Peterson, the now-former (as of Jan. 1, 2008) mayor of Indianapolis, was interviewed by Brendan O’Shaughnessy of the Indianapolis Star today about his accomplishments and plans for the future. He was optimistic about the future, and not bitter about his time in office or his loss to Greg Ballard. But I think some of his true feelings leaked through in one of the interview questions:

Q: What’s still to be done in the city?

A: The greatest challenge facing the city, in my view, is that the legislature is about to reconvene.

We’ll miss you, Bart.
