Harmon is playing the role of spoiler in mayor’s race

You’ll note in my column today that Republican mayoral candidate John Harmon has no campaign contributions, meaning that he has no real campaign.
I believe that Harmon is in the race merely to try to get 10 percent of the vote from diehard Republicans to either help elect Doug Block or dilute Larry Morrissey’s victory margin. With a Block mayoralty or a weakened Morrissey, the stage would then be set for a Dave Syverson mayoral candidacy in 2013. By then, Dave, a Republican state senator since 1993, will be fully vested in his pension. As a GOP member in a Democratic Senate, he has no clout and is looking around for a new gig. Harmon is a member of Syverson’s army.
