About Steve Widmyer, Candidate for Coeur d’Alene Mayor

The bottom feeders at Huckleberries Online are stirring into a frenzy over Steve ‘Eagle Eye’ Widmyer’s announcement to run for CDA mayor.  Since Liberals and their crazy antics make us laugh, we thought we’d take time to look into this mayoral candidate and his affiliations.

To begin, the CDA Press made mention Steve is a business and property owner, but they leave it at that. What is the extent of Steve’s business holdings, and how can that help or hurt his chances in the mayoral race?

To begin, Steve owns at least 31 properties south of I-90 in Coeur d’Alene, having a total appraised value of $14,752, 404.00 according to the Kootenai County Assessor.  Most of his holding are commercial buildings, with nine of them being apartment complexes.  In addition to this, he owns two women’s beauty boutiques and a popular close-to-downtown restaurant.  His extensive portfolio makes him possibly the wealthiest mayoral candidate CDA has ever had.  Of the four current mayoral candidates, Steve stands to win or lose the most of any candidate. Win, and, we believe, he will continue to funnel money into the LCDC Urban Renewal company, of which is headed by his good buddies, who will spend more tax payer money to improve the downtown area, and will promote tourism hard and heavy. Wouldn’t this fatten his wallet, and improve the value of his properties? However if he loses he can’t guarantee the future of urban renewal in Coeur d’Alene, which means his business would likely plateau.  The bottom line if Widmyer is elected we suspect he’ll be looking out for his interests and those of his buddies first.  The citizens of Coeur d’Alene…not so much.

But it’s not just Steve’s portfolio that’s concerning, it’s his affiliations. Stevie-boy was the Controller for the Duane Hagadone empire at one time, and, we’ve heard, has a good relationship with Duane.  “Everybody knows” or at least suspects that Hagadone has been manipulating Coeur d’Alene mayors for decades, now he stands to get one of his undering/cronies in office–will he be able to get anything he wants?

But his affliations don’t just stop with big money and urban renewal. He’s also on the board of directors for Balance North Idaho, the Liberal den of wolves responsible for the recent hijacking of the CDA school board election. This group pretends to be neutral and non-partisan, yet they’re closely affiliated with the “Don” of Liberal media  David “DooFo” Oliveria, out of state liberal political activist Thom Phaedrus George, Queen Mayor Sandi Bloem, Mike Leprechaun Kennedy, Sgt. Christy Cupcake Woods, and every Liberal of any stripe in North Idaho. Even Balance’s president Eden Irgens is a proud Democrat.  They claim they’re bringing balance to the conservative landscape of Kootenai County, yet everyone knows that their sort of balance is only brought by a healthy shot of Liberalism.  So Stevie-boy is on a board trying to make CDA more liberal…can see where this is going folks?

Voters of Coeur d’Alene why vote for a guy that doesn’t have your best interest in mind, but, more likely, his own. Not just that Stevie-boy wishes to enrich your fine town with even more Liberalism than is already present. If he’s elected we’d bet you can expect more of your hard earned money wasted on fluff projects, and more ridiculous ordinances like the anti-sodomite bias ordinance that recently passed.

If you need further proof of how Stevie’s Liberal bent fly full mast, and what his interests are, check out his posts under the alias ‘Eagle Eye’ on DooFo’s site Huckleberries Online. He’d make a New York liberal blush.

That’s our opinion and we’re sticking to it!
