Another thing that plays against Higgins is this isnt the 80's or 90's. Local news viewership has been declining for alot of years and maybe I havent lived here long enough but she doesnt seem to have the cache' of say a Ron Burgandy in San Diego.

The thing is that the people who watch local news (ie, the older generation) are probably more likely to go out and vote then the ones who don't (ie, the young ones more likely to vote for someone like Nenshi).
