My take on this guy is he's arrogant and has all the indications of a bully in the making.

To throw bones to those who voted for him, he started off with an anti-fuel tax rhetoric.

His stated reason, as quoted this morning is so that more people from neighboring counties will drive to Volusia. Huh?

I'm sure that people in Sanford would bypass their mall and drive to Daytona Beach to save a few pennies on gas, right? Meanwhile, the fund for infrastrucute/road improvements will be left lacking, so why would those unidentified people want to drive on roads in need of improvement, with the added traffic that Davis is dreaming of?

Secondy we have his posturing about selling off public lands -- PUBLIC LANDS, get it? Our property -- including "20 acres of nothing." One would think he could hide his ignorance a little better than that. Maybe we can sell the beaches, too. That would bring in some extra dollars, cash and greenbacks which would make Davis drool with happiness.
