Congrats to the City Council in Cambridge Ma

For taking only ten ballots to elect Henrietta Davis Mayor.
Hell it took forty four ballots for the democrats to nominate James Cox for President in 1920, and One Hundred and Three ballots for them to nominate John W. Davis in 1924.
Lets hope things work out better for Ms. Davis, of whom I hear good things.
Granted its a mostly ceremonial post (the City Manager shoulders the truly thankless tasks) but it is also a pulpit and well...any pulpit in a storm I always say.
