Gray Could Beat Fenty, Poll Finds

Photo by KCIvey Yesterday the Washington Post asked a number of local political watchers, myself included, if we thought Mayor Adrian Fenty would be re-elected in 2010 . Some said yes, others said no. I stressed that without a credible challenger – and none has yet stepped forward – Fenty would cruise to a second term. Well, if that capable challenger ends up being D.C. Council Chair Vincent...

DPR Hearings Continue, Kind Of

Deputy Mayor Valerie Santos, courtesy EOM With relations between Mayor Adrian Fenty and the D.C. Council as strained as they are, you'd think the city's chief executive might do what he could to make things just a little bit better. But if a hearing today before the council on the ongoing Department of Parks and Recreation contracting scandal serves as any indication, that doesn't seem to be the case....

Rhee Gets Carats While Everyone Else Gets Sticks

Will Adrian Fenty sacrifice himself in the next election to hold on the Queen of Pain, Michelle Rhee, who is arguably the divisive character to ever come to life from the corporate education planning boards of Eli Broad. The underlying question, of course, is does Fenty even have a say in the matter, when his political career is owned by the Oligarchs? Some questions for Michelle Rhee, as reported...

View more news videos at: http://www.nbcwashington.com/video . D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty appeared on WRC/NBC4 this morning to take questions from Barbara Harrison on the whole cycling team police escort / WTOP brouhaha.

WTOP Report Provokes Anger Among Area Cyclists

Law-breaking, wasting public funds and an elected official who's increasingly unpopular -- the story had everything you would want in an exposé. So when WTOP's Mark Segraves reported Monday that D.C. Mayor Adrian Fenty used a police escort and clogged up area roads on his daily bike ride, everyone jumped on it. Including us .
