      <![CDATA[The property values in Fayette and Desoto counties just went up. With four more years of Willie, Memphis will be a shell of a town, hollowed out from the inside with the middle class and wealthy majorities living in the suburban and rural perimeters.

      <![CDATA[After hearing Mr. Morris' encouraging concession speech, I was looking forward to all of us "working together toward a better Memphis." When Carol Chumney said "We deserve better," I was hopeful to work to make that a reality.

      <![CDATA[I really don't know what's more depressing, Herenton winning or the absurdly under-qualified CArol Chumney getting within 10-15,000 votes of winning. Note the turnout: estimated at less than HALF of 1991's, when WWH first won, and everybody talked about voter apathy.
