I hate success stories. The success of other people only makes me realize that dominating the local blogosphere from time to time isn't really that much of an accomplishment and it's really just a way to pass the hours in my mom's basement.
Anyhoo . . . I would be remiss if I didn't point out that politicos all over town are talking about Kim Carlos coming up in the world.
Also, I refuse to call her only her first or last name because "Kim Carlos" sounds so cool with all those consonants. So . . .
Kansas City Political Insiders know that Kim Carlos is a cancer survivor, mostly because she won't stop telling everybody as much. More importantly (to everyone else) Kim Carlos is currently a juggernaut in City Council Campaign Circles.
Kim Carlos and Cindy Circo are hooked up and talking about more than just hair and nails. She's running the Circo Campaign . . . Probably away from all mention of Citadel Plaza.
Kim Carlos looks cute with Cathy Jolly . . . Those two are buddy buddy and might just reunite for another campaign.
KIM CARLOS IS A BIG PART OF MIKE BURKE'S MAYORAL RUN ACCORDING TO KICKASS TKC TIPSTERS!!!
Best of all . . . Kim Carlos pretty much owns John Sharp now because of a 2k in-kind donation. Check the latest finance reports for KC Consulting, she's the guy's biggest contributor outside of the Unions.
What does all this mean? First of all, it's rather inspiring that some broad can beat cancer and then go on to run a great many local Democrats.
Secondly, there is no arguing with Kim Carlos: She's a business lady, cancer survivor Democrat fixture with Council connections that run deep . . . She has a lock on "professional services" (heh) to the City Council and I guess it couldn't happen to a more deserving lady . . . The fact that KC Council Politics now resembles a Lifetime Prime Time Special shouldn't really bother anybody but the most sexist and insensitive people . . . Like TKC. Natch.
Just another parasite sucking the lifeblood out of KC. It doesn't matter - old boys club, minorities, women, they only seek to enrich themselves and their supporters while the city falls down around them.
ReplyDeletelet's see her ass...and tits or GTFO!
ReplyDeleteAgree on 1 and 2
ReplyDeleteI've known her a long time. People have always swooned over her but I've never been able to figure out why.
ReplyDeleteshe started with troy nash and after he represented his district so well went to work for zimmer co. she is bought and paid for. let's get a list of all the consulting contracts she has got from the current city council. they give these contracts out so it will be rebated back to the campaigns of the city council. contribute to play.
ReplyDeleteI like her. She's not quite a saint but she'll do.
ReplyDeleteDemocrats are running KC into the ground.
ReplyDeleteTony how do we get this kind of financial report for all the other council members?
ReplyDeleteMissouri Ethics Commission...
ReplyDeleteAnyway, where the hell is the money for the Prospect Corridor Project???? What the hell did she do to deserve such a BIG salary on the backs of 3rd district residents??? Many of us have had cancer, bfd. Going into my 6 year clean so I do know from whence I speak.
I know Kim and like most politicos her ambition far outweighs her intelligence.
ReplyDeleteFortunately in this town that will get you a long way as the average IQ in the KC business and political circles is fairly low.
Anyone who presents well is considered sharp even if what they say is crap.

Unlike many of the other political consultants in town (Pat Gray for one), Kim is one who actually does what she says and is true to her word. You don't find that very often. You always knows where she stands even if you don't agree with her. And she's a tough broad to be able to take on the good ole boys in the town. One of the very few women who've been able to do that.
ReplyDeleteIf you actually know Kim and then post anonymously about her in less than flattering ways, you are the very definition of a coward.
ReplyDeleteIf you are going to be negative, at least have the guts to identify yourself.
suck this james green! Bwhahahaha!!!!
ReplyDeleteI'd put Kim's IQ and intelligence up against most of the good old white boys in this town any day. Ok - she does have the looks (I will admit she's HOT) but she does have the brains too. That's a killer combo, especially when we lack that so much here in KC!
ReplyDeletepalin wannabe.
ReplyDeleteWow, you people have way too much time on your hands. Have you thought about spending it productively instead of criticizing others? First of all, have you ever been told "you have cancer" I would bet not!!!! Hearing thoes words is something most of use will never know and she should be proud to be a survivor.
ReplyDeleteSecond, it is nice to see that someone cares enough about the future of our city to get involved in issues and with canidates that will continue to move Kansas City forward. If you belive in something, you should get out there and work for it.
Lastly, Kim is very intellegent, confident and successful. Maybe YOU should try to do something positive with your time instead of negitive attacks working against the greater good!!!!
Kim is an intelligent woman that is all about her business. She is professional and has worked hard to achieve her success. I know it sucks for the good ole boys to have to think about sharing the wealth. Beauty and brains what a great combination. Go Kim!
ReplyDeleteYou go Girl... the good old boys are just scared... Never underestimate the power of a women... expecially the hot, smart ones!!!
ReplyDeletegeez. what a useless comment war we have going on here. Doesn't everybody realize we're the same 25 people sniping at each other every time?
ReplyDeleteI suggest Kim gets over her cancer survivorship as the chief means to sell herself. It's very opportunistic and manipulative.
Kim is a wonderful woman. She deserves her success.
ReplyDeleteGotta vote with Kim on this one. She has nice bones.
ReplyDeleteMake no mistake Ms. Carlos is a part opf the old boys network. That's how she makes her living.
ReplyDeleteI agree with James Green.
ReplyDeleteYa know, Tony Green, what the problem is?
ReplyDeleteYou never complain about the anonymous complimenters.
So let me get this straight, one is a coward when they anonymously criticize, but anonymous commenters who compliment are not cowards?
You're an idiot, Mr. Green.
Perhaps all of those anonymous complimenters are the same person -maybe they are all Kim Carlos?
But that wouldn't be cowardly, would it?
You're an idiot, Mr. Green.
One or two people can post all of the positive comments on this thread anonymously, and not receive your scrutiny.
You're a dumb shit, Mr. Green.
James Green, not Tony.
ReplyDelete:o)
Kim Carlos is all about the money. And did anybody notice she's changed her hair color? Again.
ReplyDeleteMust have cashed a check recently.
Kim is no Pat Grey and I don't even like Pat Grey.
ReplyDeleteWhaaa, whaaa, whaaaa!!!! Let's see those tits and that ass that gets her into powah!!! the rest of you ...Shut. The. Fuk. Up!
