Stand Up founder sounds off

In response to yesterday's unveiling of a new PAC targeting a better Greensboro, despite its subtle partisan undertones, Stand Up Greensboro founder Andrew Murphy tells Ryan Shell from Greensboro Politics:

I think Greensboro suffers from a leadership vacuum. And while some commentators have insinuated that Stand Up Greensboro hopes to create unanimity on the city council, nothing could be father from the truth. What we would like to see is city council members who work collaboratively together, and try to compromise to move Greensboro forward. Some of us don’t think that can be done with Trudy Wade and Mary Rakestraw on the council. While some people are of the opinion that firing Mitchell Johnson will help the council move on, others think that it will only empower council members to obstruct city business more until they get what they want.
