By now, you’ve seen headlines: Marriage Ruling a Victory for Newsom. Which is fair enough.
But you might have missed this recent piece about City Attorney Dennis Herrera in glossy, fluffy San Francisco Magazine:

Bingo. She got it right. Three cheers for writer Susan Kostal as well as up-and-coming Dennis Herrera.
