Mayor Bill Foster's Growing Self-Importance
Back when Bill Foster was on the City Council he always attracted a lot of attention, which he even admits resulted in a lot of criticism of him. But when he became Mayor, that self-promotion was supposed to be a thing of the past, with quotes like "It isn't about me." on election night, and saying that attention makes him feel "embarrassed" after one year in office. Well, Mayor Bill Foster seems to have forgotten, or changed his mind, as his drive to self-promote swung into full gear recently with his trying to take all of the credit for saving the St. Petersburg postmark, which in truth was an effort that had a whole cast of dedicated St Petersburg citizens working towards it. Also, he even went so far as to claim that he is St Petersburg with this dozy of a quote when talking about the Pier: "I am not going to be the only major city in Tampa Bay without a Columbia restaurant", Does he really think that much of himself now that he believes that he is the city? Has his ego really gotten that bad?
