What party is he? #11

News from Memphis
When it comes to landing City Hall subcontracting jobs, Reginald French has a golden touch -- a $1.4 million touch.

A close friend of Mayor Willie Herenton, French has been paid at least that much, and possibly much more, for a variety of jobs, including a particularly fortuitous deal to install fiber-optic cable at two city police stations.

Newly disclosed records tell how French, a onetime prison guard, landed the $68,000 cabling job in 2006 despite lacking experience or equipment for the work.

Once again, no where in the article is Hereton's party mentioned.

This is a slam dunk. The mayor of Memphis, another falling down dump of a city.

It has to be run by democrats.

What's so "progressive" about corruption?
