Did you hear? Mayor Gavin Newsom will be your next Lieutenant Governor. (Who knew a complex city like San Francisco, one balancing precariously on a precipice, could also make for a perfect rung on the ladder to statewide success!) On Tuesday, Board of Supervisors President David Chiu will "introduce an ordinance that would outline the process for selecting an interim mayor." That person will serve until November of 2011.

Here are some names -- some random (Pelosi?!), some not so random (if the BoS cannot agree on a candidate, Chiu becomes 'acting mayor') -- whose names have been bandied about in recent weeks.
