Alex Padilla is president of the LA City Council and is mayor pro tem when Jimmie Hahn is away. When I worked in LA City Hall many moons ago, the city council was referred to as "the Cave of the Winds." Probably much worse now.

Beats the sh*t out of me. I live in La Crescenta. I can't keep up with these things. Maybe Sacto.

Looks like Hahn is going ot be stuck out in DC for a while since the flights aren't going to be flying.

I was actually thinkingthe same thing when I saw the news conference yesterday with Padilla.

I saw an article last week in the LA Times last week about "Mayor Padilla" getting carried away with his authority, particularly agenda setting, during such times. I didn't really read it -- I wish I had.
