MMS a/k/a The Well Paid Shadow Mayor

With the Albuquerque mayoral election less than four weeks away, our Eyes are pouring information into us at a pace that we can barely keep up with.
 

Over the weekend, one of our Eyes provided us with the following spreadsheet. As you can see from RJ Berry's campaign finance report he's been very busy spending money.

A lot of money. Over $238,000 in fact.

And this money has been spent by RJ Berry, the current mayor of Albuquerque, on the marketing services offered by none other Jason McCleskey and his company, McCleskey Media Strategies.

We have to wonder, if RJ is so secure in his election bid as the local paper asserts, why is he spending almost a quarter million dollars on campaign propaganda?
 

$238,000 is almost ten times the per capita income a single Albuquerque income earner makes here in the city according to the US Census Bureau!! And given that Intel just evaporated by relocation 400 high paying tech jobs, we are very concerned about RJ's seeming spare no expense hunger for power while his citizens continue to move backward.

$238,000!!!
 

With our city's police department so understaffed even the AFD is highly concerned about it. Click (HERE) to watch the video...

It's no longer a questions of if a tragedy will befall upon us but when. Faced with tens of millions in lawsuit costs and an ever widening gap between what reality is and what RJ thinks reality should be, perhaps Berry should double expenditures to MM$!
 

After all, after the Albuquerque Journal, MM$ does a great job "Berrying" the truth and distorting reality. But our Eyes also uncovered some blasts from the past regarding Mr. McCleskey (Stay tuned!).

Perhaps our federal representatives would care to comment on the matter unless they are OK with the state's largest and most influential city falling into decay. Surely even Heinrich, Udall, and Lujan-Grisham recognize their ambitions on select committees and favorable legislation will fall on deaf ears if the city continues on its course of implosion. After all, who really cares about the federal representatives of a state whose population is smaller than a borough of New York and is headed on the fast track to the where it came from: a "Barryed" territory.
