Mark White…For Mayor?
By Vince Leibowitz on Aug 20, 2008 in 2010 Texas Elections
So, is Mark White actually considering running for Mayor of Houston? The former governor says he is.
As with every story involving former governors of Texas, rumors and theories abound. Here are the two favorites we collected from a few calls we made in Austin and Houston:
1.) White has no plans to run for mayor, but does have some unfinished business in the governor’s office. He is actually testing the waters to go up against Rick Perry or Kay Bailey Hutchison in 2010. He’ll still be younger than John McCain is now.
2.) White is actually a stalking horse for an as-yet unidentified Democratic candidate for Mayor of Houston. White will be a prominent name to gather support and placehold until the candidate is ready to announce, at which time White will step aside.
