Wilder decides 1 term's enough as Richmond mayor

No loss, I am sure he was just as useless as mayor as he was governer.

He cleaned up crime, provided for successful schools and lowered property taxes. A Black hero for the ages. Just like Barack - loves White people who work for a living and loves America.

HA! You took the words right out of my mouth.

Sorry, my opinion of him is a tad different.

Richard???? Taken your Meds today? Heck of a reverse psycology.

Yeah! The man who should be remembered for locking the Richmond School Board out of their offices will be gone soon!

Hope he doesn't think he is going to be Obama's Vice President, that is reserved for me!

Barack is NO hero, and is as black as Vanilla Ice. HE didn't clean up crime, the chief of police did-who happened to take a new job in Charlotte NC. Reality sux, doesn't it?

Douglas Wilder the citizens of Richmond thank you for your service. Don't listen to these stupid white racist comments; you did an excellent job as Governor of Virginia and an equally great job as mayor.

You have opened doors that were previously closed to the Black people of Virginia. You have inspired a younger generation to achieve their dreams.

You will be missed sir!

Those doors are open for all that "chose" to work for it, and not just when a democRAT is in office. Nice try!

I thank and feel sorry for Mr. Wilder, because he tried to improve Richmond, but that's about as possible as trying to keep the Titanic afloat. Way too many chiefs unwilling to make change.
