Luke Ravenstahl, the “oops” Mayor who got his job by dint of parliamentary happenstance, is heading for a fall. Big time.

From the start, there were hints of his hubris, but most people (for good or ill) were willing to “give the kid a chance.” That attitude may now be shifting; downshifting.

His statement above, in which he flares out and announces he’ll do it “His Way” is very Sinatra. Very Brat Pack. But it is not very smart. And the Allegheny County Democratic Party had better wake up and smell the beer. This kid is out of control and he’s a major embarrasement to all Democrats within shouting distance. Luke, if he keeps stumbling at his current rate, may single-handedly hand Grant Street to the GOP.

Admittedly, it won’t happen this round….but four years from now, can you imagine how much trouble this punk will have gotten into? I know it’s out of favor for this generation, but Luke needs a spanking…and good.
