Why Democrats (& Democracy-Loving Republicans & Independents) Can’t Trust John Whitmire for Mayor of Houston!: The evidence is clear: a vote for John Whitmire is a vote to cede our city to those intent on taking away what makes us Houston, our freedom, our diversity, our kindness, and much more. I always heeded my mom's advice that if one slept with dogs, one would rise with flees. Unfortunately, Whitmire didn't. [More]
