On Tuesday, I awoke to the face on Fox News of North Las Vegas Mayor John Lee, who was announcing that he was changing parties from Democrat to Republican.
This was a very exciting interview, which I hope is a harbinger of an expanded role for this natural born leader in the political world.
I can tell you from firsthand knowledge — having lived in North Las Vegas — that Lee and his leadership at City Hall dispelled the gloom and doom surrounding the city and thrust it into a highly successful operation and a dramatic turnaround for NLV residents.
