Norman Mineta was able to be retained because he was less controversial and an industry expert. You could not say that for Gabe Klein. His background was in the rent a car business and he clashed with people who have heavy transportation background. In a city that has the highest congestion we need someone who has an extensive knowledge of transportation. Far beyond what Gabe Klein has.

Secondly, Gabe was one of the most controversial figures picking fights with lots of councilmembers, Federal leaders and organizations. With those two given things--he would be hard to keep.

If Allen Lew is in consideration for the Office of Planning Tregoning does not compare.

And this is extremely tacky process of forcing VG 's hand.
