Charlie Sheen's Cabo Drinking Buddy Mayor Villar to endorse Assemblyman Mike Feuer for City Attorney

Fresh back from his alleged Cabos Drinking Misadventures with Charlie Sheen, Mayor Antonio Villar will announce his endorsement of AB 109 Prison Realignment supporter Assemblyman Mike Feuer this morning in Boyle Heights.
 Maybe Charlie Sheen will ponder whether his alleged drinking buddy's supposed endorsed candidate for City Attorney's support of AB 109 Prison Realignment, has increased alcohol-related crimes in Los Angeles?
Mayor Villar and his supposed choice for City Attorney Assemblyman Mike Feuer, make eye contact.

Mayor Sam has learned that Mayor Antonio Villar will endorse Assemblyman Mike Feuer in a 9:30 AM presser at the Variety Boys and Girls Club in Boyle Heights. Intuitive political observers may question the timing and why the Feuer Campaign would seek the endorsement of the outgoing mayor, especially coming on the heels of the nationally discussed Mayor Villar's alleged "Cabos Drinking Misadventures" with Charlie Sheen.
Further, local residents may want to question Assemblyman's Feuer's support of AB 109 Prison Realignment which has been responsible for a spike in gang crimes in the immediate area around the Variety Boys and Girls facility just northwest of Cesar Chavez and Mott Street.

** Update: The Trutanich Campaign has the following response to Mayor Villar's endorsement of Assemblyman Mike Feuer, which you can review in whole after the jump. An excerpt below---S.J.

We think Mayor Villaraigosa is making a serious mistake by endorsing a career politician like former Assemblyman Michael Feuer, who last represented Beverly Hills and Bel-Air and learned the ropes on how to create a fiscal mess in Sacramento - the capital of dysfunctional and incompetent government.
Fortunately the polls show the people are not fooled by the Feuer campaign. Two polls (one by Loyola Marymount's School for the Study of Los Angeles and the other an internal poll commissioned by the campaign) show Trutanich as the clear frontrunner. In fact, our internal poll shows Trutanich trouncing Feuer after the pollster told voters about the good, the bad and the ugly about each candidate. 
The Trutanich campaign will accept the approval of the voters over the endorsement of City Hall insiders any day

For Immediate Release
Trutanich for City Attorney 2013


TRUTANICH: THE FRONT-RUNNER WITH VOTERS

ALERT: TRUTANICH WILL HOLD NEWS CONFERENCE @ 11 AM TODAY, CITY HALL EAST, SIDEWALK MAIN STREET SIDE 
City Attorney Carmen Trutanich's campaign is surprised that Mayor Villaraigosa is showing such an interest in the City Attorney's office. Over the past four years, the mayor has cut the City Attorney's budget from $117m to nearly $75 million. 

Under normal circumstances, such devastating cuts would have seriously jeopardized public safety. 

Fortunately for the public Trutanich was at the helm during this painful period and he did more with less. Trutanich cut the use of expensive outside attorneys, saving millions for taxpayers; he won 134 of 147 civil liability lawsuits against the city, saving the city and taxpayers $285 million; he went after tax deadbeats who owed the city money and squeezed big settlements out of those who polluted our environment and ripped off our consumers. In short, the City Attorney's office, despite the cuts helped pay its own way. Thanks to Trutanich the City Atttorney's office - despite losing 125 attorneys - was able to keep up with a caseload that includes filing 70 percent of all the criminal cases coming out of the LAPD.

We think Mayor Villaraigosa is making a serious mistake by endorsing a career politician like former Assemblyman Michael Feuer, who last represented Beverly Hills and Bel-Air and learned the ropes on how to create a fiscal mess in Sacramento - the capital of dysfunctional and incompetent government.

Fortunately the polls show the people are not fooled by the Feuer campaign. Two polls (one by Loyola Marymount's School for the Study of Los Angeles and the other an internal poll commissioned by the campaign) show Trutanich as the clear frontrunner. In fact, our internal poll shows Trutanich trouncing Feuer after the pollster told voters about the good, the bad and the ugly about each candidate. 

The Trutanich campaign will accept the approval of the voters over the endorsement of City Hall insiders any day

The voters appreciate Trutanich's record of winning for Los Angeles. It's a record that has protected the city's most vulnerable populations, its taxpayers and its neighborhoods. Take a look at Trutanich's exceptional record of accomplishments on the League of Women Voters website.*

"The only thing we've heard about Feuer's record as an attorney is frightening," said Trutanich chief strategist Rick Taylor. During a recent debate, Feuer had no answer when he was asked if he had ever - ever - tried a single civil or criminal case before a jury. "Michael Feuer is a career politician," said Taylor. "Mike Feuer would be lost in a courtroom. The courtroom is Trutanich's second home. The voters get it."
