I would never want to be a politician. Pretty much every single decision you make, some one is going to hate you for. You can not appease the entire population. The best you can do is find a balance of sorts. There are a lot of good politicians doing great work because they are passionate about their constituents. For example, we have a great major.
I tend to agree with you, but this story, it's only the media side of things intended to sell news. I wouldn't think that this woman entered politics to do bad...as most politicians intend to do good like your Mayor.
Your mayor made the "world" news for all the good things he did.
Unfortunately, most individuals in the political realm have the negative things associated to them published, hence why most of us would never take on the task of such leadership.
