Rumors have been swirling for months now about the candidates lining up for the Mayor's race in Fort Worth.
The FW Weekly Static on this is excellent. Read it all! Be sure and read to the bottom about Fort Worth's animal control, Oprah and the Fort Worth Cheerleader.
We love when the citizens (even if it's "one woman") exposes the Fort Worth Way for what it really is.
You good ol' boys better pay attention, the women are on their way. You ever pissed off a Texas woman? Not recommended. Our advice? Run, Forrest, Run.
Thinking about Hirt’s candidacy reminds Static of a time in 2003 when Hirt and Mike Moncrief battled each other for the mayor’s job. Moncrief quit the Texas Senate and came home to Fort Worth seeking a job. Coincidentally, every gas driller in Texas was also honing in on Cowtown, angling to exploit lax regulation to suck the most money possible from the Barnett Shale.
“Government must be a partnership between the people and their elected,” he told Fort Worth Weekly seven years ago (he stopped talking to the Weekly once he got elected).
He’s become the least inclusive mayor in living memory.
When people disagree with him, he tries to remove them from the conversation.

We need a NEW and less corrupt superintendent of FWISD as well. What's wrong with FW citizens? Dallas folks would be out in force and raising all kinds of hell if they know that all these blatant corruptions and thievery were occurring in their city. We get what we're willing to tolerate. God help us.
