Tender Readers, we adore you all, but especially those amongst your sweaty masses who know what we truly like (chocolate, cussing, porn, etc.) and send us sparkling gems of genius like what we have here. Somebody named Loverloin must have enjoyed our absolute and unconditional disendorsement of all the District 6 candidates (we still stand by that by the way) and sent us the real, unadulterated campaign posters that should actually be out there as they speak any number of truths. We wanted to show them here just in case you were still making up your mind about who to vote for.
Oh, and once you’ve decided, don’t forget to vote in our epic poll. Then, feel free to hang a “Willie Brown” or “Chris Daly” poster up in salute of your own dis-endorsement or just to piss off someone across the street who might feel the opposite.

This is genius.
This makes me want to move to the TL just so I can say my neighborhood is cool enough to make hilarious election posters.
I’m a Kim supporter. I think she is awesome! This is freaking hilarious though..you got some ovaries…or cojones!
I’m voting for Debra Walker and even I think these hit the nail right on the head.
ANNA Conda is a drag name and has nothing to do with my penis but any free endowed advertising can only enhance my reputation.
The dogs name is Frida, I guess she could be my co pilot in the race. Very funny about all the candidates. I like creativity.
Dean Clark for District 6 Supervisor 2010
Nowhere but in San Francisco could this brilliant satire be created. Congrats to the creator!
This is absolutely hilarious! I’m in stitches from laughing so hard!
Dear TenderBlog,
I don’t find any of this funny. If anything, I find it all disrespectful and mean spirited.
Sincerely,
David Elliott Lewis
In all fairness, all D6 contenders could have been zombified…
Frida the Pooch for President in 2012 !!

it’s not san francisco until someone gets offended. kudos to the other candidates who were able to laugh at themselves.
Shouldn’t this be about who’s most representative of our community?
I’m holding out until we get the ‘red headed hooker’ (who wore a flesh colored onesy for about a month straight a few years back) on the ticket.
Either her – or the lady who gets in your face & yells ‘Can I have a Dollar!’
If you watch SFGTV I’m sure they’re up there speaking their minds to city hall on a regular basis too.
Considering how Debra’s supporters and staffers are rude to everyone who just might support another candidate or two, will she laugh at this?
@MeShow
‘our community’ meaning what, exactly?
@Rick
she already laughed at it: http://sfist.com/2010/10/22/day_around_the_bay_debra_walker.php
The only one I find rude is Rick. Yes, I know who you are.
Keys 1, Walker 2, Anna Conda 3.
walker 1, meko 2, h. brown 3.
Of course the candidates can laugh at this. Its the people who live here who cry their eyes out, or in my case… when considering the legacy of Daly…
Mis ojos son enfuego!
Anna Conda 1, Walker 2, Kim 3
This work is pure genius and it reminds me of repurposed bumper stickers we made back in college for that spectacular 1988 presidential election:
Bush/Quaalude
Ducaca/Bentshit

It’s fabulous,
Funniest thing of the campaign so far. But, we do have another 10 days. Is it true Tenderblog is hosting a Mohammed cartoon contest?
Go Giants!

It was so funny, I almost died. Since I am old school Chinese, could not laugh aloud or roll on the floor. I did wait until I had solitude in the bathroom and cut one loose.
Debra is by far, THE CANDIDATE.
Since I was labeled “mother of the transgender community” (go GOOGLE), I cannot in good judgement nor fairness vote for the carpetbagger Theresa Sparks because she is transgendered like most “TG sheep playing follow the leader” — too bad her followers don’t live in District 6 but nevertheless, the TG voters/residents will not vote for a person like Sparks. [NO SHARKS FOR SEX]
I get a bit amazed at the ‘carpetbagger’ label — seems to me that lots of our residents have lived here less than what seems to be a mandatory 25+ years. I would rather have someone who cares about our city and can weave District 6 into that fabric, and the only one I see doing that is Theresa Sparks. At the forum at Hastings one of the candidates said that Chris Daly could not represent some parts of the District because his plate was too full with TL issues. I could have sworn we were voting for someone to represent the entire District. No one should be ignored.
