Houston: The Democr@p cesspool of Texas. (Austin is donk, too, but it’s not a cesspool - yet.)

It is a cesspool. We have nothing but worthless candidates.

I dunno anything about the current candidates, BUT, from what I know about Houston, I'd guess that...
Whether the mayor
is straight or gay,
You gotta know
you'll pay to play!

Early voting If the gays could only get a 500 vote lead in early voting, Parker is probably going down.

What about Kathy Whitmire?I love Houston. I left there about 25-30 years ago and still consider it my second home. It was a great city with a marvelous "can do" spirit that was palpable and most appealing.
It was the election of Whitmire which made me decide to leave. With her the handwriting was on the wall. Houstonians had shown they wanted their great city to become just another Leftist dump along the lines of the Liberal dominated cities of the NE. This latest election just confirms my opinion and I feel very sad for a city I love.

I am a native of the Houston area... You obviously have no idea what you’re talking about.
While Houston has a vocal Democrat party, it’s hardly a cesspool. Austin is in fact much worse. However, if our police could do their jobs, our city would be nicer - but it’s light years better than Austin; the liberal mecca of Texas.

Here's some fresh (hour old) info from the Houston Chronicle. A recent Rice University opinion poll had Parker up 13 points. I think Parker is in trouble given that she only had a 500 vote lead in the early voting.
http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/nation/6767294.html A poll released by Rice University this week showed Parker leading Locke 49 percent to 36 percent. The poll, commissioned by television station KHOU and radio station KUHF, is based on telephone interviews earlier this week with 442 registered voters in Houston. It has an error rate of plus or minus 4.7 percent.
