I dropped by here after a discussion at
WP:COIN, which anyone involved in the article is invited to join. I have trimmed 17KB of fairly obscene puffery, promotion and coatrack items. I am not sure how a local politician got to be a 47KB article. Some kind of reality check is in order. Some of the items trimmed included a sentence on his many positive qualities as identifed by a search committee for a new job. I am not sure what is going on here, but the article is a huge advertisement overall.

What is going on, and has been going on for years now, is that user Hunter Kahn has been adding this puffery on a regular basis. He has never posted a single edit that demonstrates any critical perspective whatever on Cunningham. He also fights indefatigably to delete information/citations that are even remotely embarassing to the man, and he will say almost anything to justify his policy of protecting Cunningham from his own policies and statements. To all appearances, he is either a hired flack or a very close friend of the great man. The really remarkable thing about Cunningham concerns his local op-eds, in which he seeks to defend his economic development policies by ridiculing the area residents who criticize them. That is not something many politicians would ever do. Hunter Kahn has deleted those citations every time I tried to add one to the article. — Preceding
