Dot Reporter gets the scoop that Tomas Gonzalez has changed his mind and will run for an at-large seat on the Boston City Council. Gonzalez has been probably the single most-mentioned name since Council '09 rumor-mongering kicked off, and he'll be a major player. Gonzalez who lives in Menino's own Hyde Park, has served with the Mayor's Office of Neighborhood Services and Commission on Affairs of the Elderly -- both superb opportunities to become known to voting residents. He currently works for BU's Medical Campus.

By my current count, Gonzalez is the 876th male candidate in the race, and not one woman. Not one. None. Zero. Noooooo women.

Did he work for Mayor Menino? Yes. But his loyalty lies with his family and the city of Boston. I'm very excited to see him in this race. Tomas’ story is very unique, and I can’t wait for his campaign to take off.

I like him too, wasn't being critical, just pointing out the obvious.

For what it's worth - I'm contemplating a run. And I'm a woman.
