Drescher's Endorsers: Establishment - Check

We finally got a clear look at John Drescher's website today, and still could find no hint about his position about whether Newcastle should be annexed by Bellevue or not (if anybody sees something, please, contact us).  Mark Greene has been unequivocally against annexation ever since Councilman Bill Erxleben brought it up as an issue and proposed talks with Bellevue last September, but there was a list of all of Drescher's endorsements, and Erxleben was on it (that's a red flag right there if you want and insist that Newcastle remain independent, like we do).  Also, almost everybody on the Council, one councilmember excepting, endorsed Drescher (hint: N.P.R. will be endorsing Carol Simpson for mayor next Winter if she runs).  An unchecked, nearly unanimous like-minded Council that is quick to act in the interests of real estate barons and gentrification may need an extra dissenter.  Drescher also has an endorsement and a testimony, practically headlining the home page of his website, from fellow Planning Commissioner, Rob Lemmon (have readers, here, heard about Lemmon's anti-apartments spiel?).  We will not go over the whole list of Drescher's endorsements, but Mr. Drescher may not even be the status quo candidate if Erxleben gets his ear about Newcastle being one of Bellevue's neighborhoods.

P.S.  There are indications that Mark Greene has the support of some of Newcastle's city officials, but in the interest of circumspection, we will not name them.  It is understandable, seeing that they're appointed officials and not elected, that they would probably prefer to remain anonymous.
