Could Chris Daly be that man?

"Among a lot of our members are people who don't get him, or are angry at him, or he makes them crazy. A lot of people barked back at us and said, are you crazy?" said Tim Colen, executive director of the San Francisco Housing Action Coalition.

But truth be told, "He's not a NIMBY. He's the one member of the Board of Supervisors who is able to deal with physical change in the built environment," said Gabriel Metcalf, executive director of San Francisco Planning and Urban Research, another group that supports more housing construction.

In other words, Daly's not a San Francisco progressive. I can think of no better qualification for public office in San Francisco.
