"City bumbles in pitching rail plan"

Really?

THAT'S where you think "the city," Mayor Caldwell, and HART dropped the ball?  In the "pitching" of the tax increase?  

What about in the actual building of the train?  What about Mayor Caldwell's campaign promise to deliver the train "On Time​ and On Budget?" What about a year ago when Mayor Caldwell stood before the state legislature and promised that he and HART had finally gotten their act together, and if they gave him just one more tax extension then the project would be paid for?  And what about 6 weeks later when it turned out that the project was billions more over budget than the Mayor let on?  Not to mention the nonsensical route and shoddy workmanship.  

And what about the SA supporting this mess every step of the way and endorsing the Mayor at every opportunity. 

There is far, far more wrong with Honolulu rail than the latest tax increase "not being pitched properly."  Hey, you know you guys could actually help, right?
