Of these candidates, the Wall noted that one has a blog! He's the one whose name is a hyperlink! Guess who we're profiling next! Welcome, Manuel Jimenez! He's a former bike messenger, a former Marine, and an attorney for the State Bar of California. Watch out, Chris, looks like he also has a cute son!

Also, Jimenez provides links to a children's book he's penned ("Timo's Tough Trek To School"), some supportive comments from his mom ("I'm thrilled you're running for office!"), his drawings, and excerpts from his novel. You can also check out his campaign blog (where he comes out against Daly's homicide task force plan) and his personal blog too. Wow, that's a lot of websites. We see a Bay Blogger Thursday profile in your future, Mr. Jimenez! Picture of Manuel Jimenez from his websites more ›
