Deputy Mayor Kevin Sheekey (who also spent last year working on Bloomberg's possible presidential run) isn't that happy with The New Yorker's revelation that young mayors like Newark's Cory Booker and DC's Adrian Fenty apparently call Mayor Bloomberg "Papa Smurf." He Tweeted, "Mayors, can we go w/ @mikebloomberg as Obi Wan?" (and linked to a Washington City Paper post about what Smurf persona fit Fenty best). Clearly Star Wars is big in the Bloomberg administration—Deputy Mayor Ed Sklyer is a huge fan, too! However, @mikebloomberg himself has not commented on the Papa Smurf nickname. [Via PolitickerNY]
