"Rumblings" about Scotty's mother running for Austin, Tx mayor...(again)
Edited on Thu Jun-12-08 06:15 PM by rainbow4321
She was mayor at one point. Interesting how she may decide to run for mayor in the bluest city in Texas shortly after her son comes out with his book about the chimp regime.

I started to dislike the woman when I heard how she (as state comptroller) tried to deny a Unitarian Universalist church in TX it's tax exempt status, claiming that because the congregation didn't hold a "single belief" as a group, they could NOT be considered a church. She backed down only after the media and lawyers went after her.

While most of the speculation about next year's election has centered around current councilmen Lee Leffingwell and Brewster McCracken, they may not be the only prominent names eyeing the race.

Of course, we have reported before about the rumblings of Carol Strayhorn entering the race for her old job. Now, KVUE's Elise Hu has a video on YouTube that once again confirms OTG is considering the race.

1. I knew her dad, and supported her for mayor the first time.

She's terrible. She goes whichever way the wind blows. She stands for nothing.

Carol Keeton McClellan Rylander Strayhorn (I think that's all of them) is a demagogue who runs as whatever she thinks will get her elected.


Her old man was a helluva Torts professor and law school Dean.
