San Diego isn't much different than a lot of cities who catered to the public unions. Unfunded Pie in the Sky pensions is the problem a lot of these Cities face. Doesn't matter what political stripes the Mayor wears. The city counsels are just to blame and San Diego has a fair mix there.
As far as Qualcomm goes yeah it's a POS down in a valley prone to flooding. The way I see the problem of getting a new stadium has more to do with the way the city alone would finance their portion of the stadium. IMHO the team and the stadium is beneficial to the whole county and I believe that if the whole county were involved the deal would get done.
