When Aaron Peskin first started dabbling in San Francisco politics, he saw himself as the kind of guy who could get along with anyone. Someone who would forge lasting bonds with everyone from the most stubborn downtown real estate agent to the most progressive person in the Bay Area who ever lived.
But the Downtown folks were standoffish and snooty. A business lobby group called the Committee on Jobs started airing its dirty laundry in the newspapers. Meanwhile, the progressive folks were fun and kept inviting him to parties.
At the beginning of this week, Peskin's events manager, a tall, chic woman named Hana Haber, prohibited—or at least strongly discouraged—Peskin from wearing a tie to the concert she was hosting to raise money for Peskin's mayoral campaign. 'You're taking a long time to learn how to dress,' she gently but firmly told him.
