How San Jose’s suffered under Chuck Reed
A once fine city now gone to seed
No A’s, no cops, no libraries open
From the Merc, not a word of dissent is spoken
AND SAM DOESN’T GIVE A DAMN
Reed’s buddies got millions that could have fought crime
While the firefighters can’t reach the blazes on time
There aren’t safe parks for a family to play
And the potholes will swallow a whole bus one day
YET SAM DOESN’T GIVE A DAMN
Increasing crime rates are scary and steep
While the crooks are laughing and the victims weep
And mothers and fathers just can’t see
Why their kids should be worth less than Measure B
STILL SAM DOESN’T GIVE A DAMN
Reed promised reform, but he’s twisted the rules
And his allies just sit there and bray like mules
But change is coming on a powerful wave
And the voters are calling- “It’s time for Dave!”
YEAH, SAM SHOULD HAVE GIVEN A DAMN.

This article is wrong on so many levels…the problems San Jose is currently suffering from began under the Gonzalez administration (or, if we’re really being truthful, with the governorship of Gray Davis). I voted for Oliverio for mayor and now I’ll vote for Liccardo.
