The way in which a nearly unanimous Worcester City Council and its behind-the-curtain handlers (e.g. Jim McGovern) hired Ed Augustus - whom I respect and admire greatly, but also who had no background, training and experience as a municipal-government administrator prior to being hired as short-term city manager last January - as long-term city manager was truly remarkable and Machiavellian. Prediction: Sometime after this falls midterm congressional elections - a binding referendum will be placed on next Novembers citywide ballot - no charter commission need apply - calling for approval of a strong mayor city charter. And the proposed charter will result simply from searching-and-replacing the phrase city manager with the phrase mayor. What do you think?
