This is the city: Los Angeles, California. I work here. I'm an ex-mayor. Los Angeles is a magnet for people from all over the world. Some of them run for public office. Inevitably some of them stray from the golden rule and rule for those that have the gold. That's when I go to work. My name is Yorty. I'm a dead pol.

AV has a special captioning device on his TV that cuts everything said on the tube down into single syllable words.

His daughter did not look happy. Wonder what she was thinking of this spectacle? Come to think of it his whole family didn't look like they liked being props in a future campaign commercial.
I can't believe they picked someone with such poor spanish skills to talk. Padilla speaks spanish much better. They should of gotten him to speak. He's young and photogenic.

Anon 8:22 P.M.:
I hope that the managers of this blog will not only take your uncalled for comment off, but also bar you from posting here.
That is a viscous attack on a young man that has no place here or anywhere.
Have you no shame?

8:22, come on now. A blog lets you be anonymous, but is that really necessary? or enlightening? or funny? or just plain cheap!
Go after the Mayor, not his family!
Lord knows, we got plenty of ammo to go after AV- which just makes 8:22 post, even worse.

...I usually just read the comments and chuckle every once in a while. You, 8:22 are way out of line. Props to Phil and the others who have called you out. AV is the public official - and therefore fair game -- not his kid. You get to hide behind the cloak of anonymity, he does not.

Ok Corrina Villaraigosa I'll not attack your son next time.

Padilla does not have better spanish skills than AV. They're both iffy, but Padilla flat out sucks when he speaks in Spanish.
AV received props from Spanish-language media, which is not easy to come by.

I hope you don't read MayorSam comments looking for shame very much.

It's like in court, if you introduce it, it's fair game. AV introduced his son and family so they are fair game.
That's why Jimmy Hahn kept his kids at home in Pedro.
Ask anyone in Detroit about playing politics with the mayor's family. They will tell you it's fair game once you introduce them.

BODY LANGUAGE people... look up the "meanings" - you could write a dissertation on this family photo.
Crossed arms (guarded, defensive, excluding others nearby).
Crossed legs (away from, not into each other).
It goes on and on. There's a high profile Oprah or Dr. Phil episode awaiting here.

Rumor has it that viagra and Ameriquest shared the expenses for his trip back east. That way the gulf stream was sure to get up.

SCARY!!!!!
The Mexican version of the ADDAMS Family.
AV will never fit into the elitist circles and, certainly, his family must be aware of the vast cultural and intellectual differences between the whites and mexicans.
I feel sorry for the family...they are WAY WAY out of their element (unless you count the immigrants).

Sorry, but being white today doesn't inherently make you superior.
Sh*t! Doesn't competition suck?
Can't simply rely on the good ol' standards of race criteria.
