I ran across this yesterday. Gene Goltz of the Houston Post won a Pulitzer Prize in 1965 in the Local Investigative Specialized Reporting category for his writing about government corruption in Pasadena, Texas that led to reforms. Now you know. _____ Early voting in person for the runoff starts two weeks from today. This past weekend,…
Read MoreE-Board Waste
The featured photo is the headline of today’s Chron E-Board take. A wasted take may I add. As long as the same folks are running the Texas Democratic Party like for a few decades now, Democrats don’t have a prayer of making gains. The current chair of the Texas Democratic Party has overstayed his welcome…
Read MoreNow and Then
Commentary didn’t watch the GOP debate on NBC last night. I saw the highlights. Former Gov. Nikki Haley called the Vivek fella “scum.” She went light on him. I would have called him a POS. _____ I was reviewing the election returns for the H-Town mayoral race. There was one East End precinct with zero…

Honestly, I didn’t think State Sen. John Whitmire would have a 7-point lead heading into a runoff. I don’t think you did either. Our campaign took on a ton of in coming. In reviewing the precinct-by-precinct returns, we did well throughout the city with the exception of African American precincts. Our opponent, the Cong. Sheila…

Yesterday, the Chron E-Board’s take was on the neo-Nazi infestation of the Texas GOP. See the featured photo. It was well put together and did a superb job of connecting the dots. There are a lot of hateful bad dots, err actors roaming the halls of the Texas GOP. Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick has viral…
Read MoreTop Clowns
No doubt about it, two of the top clowns in Texas politics are Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick and Texas GOP House Speaker Dade Phelan. Clarabell and Bozo take a back seat to these two. Here is what the clown Patrick said about his fellow clown Phelan: I don’t pay attention to you anymore and neither…

Texas Democratic Party folks don’t want to hear this. 47 years ago, today was the last time a Democratic candidate for president carried the state of Texas. Former President Jimmy Carter won Texas on November 2, 1976. I was the number two person in the Texas Democratic Party GOTV effort that year. _____ The Chron…

The following is the oldest story of the 2023 H-Town elections. We have been talking about State Sen. John Whitmire’s campaign cash since the very beginning. The Whitmire campaign didn’t get into this race, not knowing if we could spend the campaign money. Have at it from the Chron: State Sen. John Whitmire’s campaign war chest is…
Read MoreHalloween Today
This is from the Chron on last night’s mayoral debate that aired on Channel 13: U.S. Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee and state Sen. John Whitmire publicly clashed over the alleged audio clip of the congresswoman berating a staffer in an expletive-laden rant, as four of Houston’s mayoral contenders faced off in the final debate before election day. Jackson…
