The New York Post printed FERRER: AX 'PARK DISS' COMMISH, this morning; giving the impression that Ferrer was somehow calling for a firing squad; but I have here the audiocasts that will paint a better picture of the incident.

Fernando Ferrer's Call for Accountability

Mayoral Candidates Follow-up on Ferrer's Call for Accountability

The podcast, raw and unedited, is a whopping 9+ GIGABYTES.
Daily Gotham's audiocast of Parks1 26 July 2005 Mayoral Forum

Oh, and just in case you wondered, I signed the pledge too

Now, the question you've all been waiting for me to answer : Who came out in front?

And the answer is ...

Ferrer, no question about it.

When it came to actual, concrete policies, he was the one with the clearest and most realistic plans for re-vamping the Parks Department. This race, though, if Miller gets any way into the November ballot, will be an interest one. He is a formidable adversary.

And by the way, I've been a big critic of Ferrer these fast few months. So I'm happy to have seen him do so well in the forum.

Miller was funny and a total ham but Ferrer, as mayor? He would definitely kick ass.

Update I forgot to give kudos to Ognibene. CAN SOMEONE PLEASE HEVE THIS MAN RUN AGAINST BLOOMBERG!

Run, Thomas, run!

I'd switch parties if that got him into the ballot. I swear!
