Poorest US Cities Are Democrat Controlled
An interesting correlation between America’s poorest cities and their overwhelming control by the Democrat Party can be seen, with some cities never having elected a Republican mayor.

Here is a breakdown:
City, State, % of People Below the Poverty Level (pop. 250,000+)
(U.S. Census Bureau, 2006 American Community Survey, August 2007)

1.Detroit , MI 32.5%
2.Buffalo , NY 29.9%
3.Cincinnati , OH 27.8%
4.Cleveland , OH 27.0%
5.Miami , FL 26.9%
6.St. Louis , MO 26.8%
7.El Paso , TX 26.4%
8.Milwaukee , WI 26.2%
9.Philadelphia , PA 25.1%
10.Newark , NJ 24.2%
Democrat Party Rule in these Cities

1.Detroit, MI hasn’t elected a Republican mayor since 1961
2.Buffalo, NY hasn’t elected one since 1954
3.Cincinnati, OH …since 1984
4.Cleveland, OH …since 1989

I've always thought the same thing about commissions and so-called blue-ribbon panels no matter who convenes them.

Obama is a serial abuser of that @ss covering system.
