The Embrace ......................., or Kiss of Death?

Who is strategically place to greet Mayor Antonio Villar upon the conclusion of his last "State of the City" Speech? The answer and the chance greeting (more like choreographed) will always be known as ............... "The Embrace".

"The Kiss of Death (or the Embrace) Video" as uploaded by Ron Kaye.

In the ideal political world of choreographing and promoting the Mayor Antonio Politico Brand, there is nothing left to chance that would tarnish negatively the City Terrace native.

Thus, what longtime, intuitive former newspaper editor, turned discerning blogger Ron Kaye uploaded on YouTube from last night's Mayor Antonio Villar "State of the City Address", could have a pronounced impact on the 2013 Mayoral Elections ........., and this moment was not by chance.

Many local scribes, bloggers and self-styled commenters, have speculated whether Mayor Antonio Villar would "bless" either Eric Garcetti or Wendy "The Villar Greuel" with his endorsement before the May 17 Election Day. 

Last night, the former Tony Villar did not endorse, but chose to admonish the duo for not engaging the subject of Education, more extensively in their respective campaigning. But while challenging the two to commence a dialog on the topic, what happen after the conclusion of his speech and today's campaign action, leave us wondering whether the mayor was interceding on the behalf of the "Villar Greuel".

First, Mayor Villar expresses his dismay at the supposed lack of dialog on education, notice the camera pan away to a shot of LAUSD School Board President Monica "Gorda Boo Boo" Garcia as Kaye isolates in his post. Today, the Villar Greuel follows instructions and attempts a campaign stunt by challenging Garcetti to a instant debate on education. No dice.

But most telling is what happen after the end of the Mayor's speech ............. and that did not happen by a John Shallman over-priced chance. 

Your thoughts ..............
