RE: NYT ON DALLAS MAYOR’S RACE

|

Love the cutline of the first photo Tristan wrote.

Dallas, long troubled by crime, scandals, racial polarization and government gridlock, as seen across wetlands in the Trinity River project.

As opposed to that bastion of safety, government efficiency and racial harmony known as New York City, huh?

Look, maybe I’m provincial but that’s for us to say, not some shallow Yankee hack parachuting in for a margarita. I defer to Rod for the rest of the critique, but let’s just add that given the folks who make up the city council, county commission and DISD board, how can anyone see local “government gridlock” as anything but a virtue?
