I read something about that but haven't really taken the time yet to see where he is politically. It sounds like he's still farther right than I'd go, but from what I read he was able to admit some things he was wrong about, and that's something I can seriously respect!

Any politician who publically admits they were wrong and they're trying to re-educate themselves on divisive topics is worth another look.

Say what you want about Farkas (I haven't ever really been a fan) but he does seem to love this city.
