I expect Orlando Sanchez will be the next mayor of Houston, and he's a conservative Republican.

Let us hope so. Expect the downtown crowd to go for Bill White though, and Brown's thugs to go for Turner. I think it'll be a runoff between Sanchez and Sylvester Turner, in which case the Houston Chronicle will pull out all stops for Turner. They're they official henchmen of the light rail mafia and would never support Sanchez, who opposes rail.

Ken Lay won't be donating the big bucks to Turner, as he did for Brown last time around. That might make a difference.

We can certainly count on the Chronical to oppose Sanchez, though. You're right about that.
