Municipal Elections, Max Grossman & Carlos Sierra

If you read Max Grossman's periodic musings he sends via email, which sound more to me like a manifesto written by some weirdo who lives in a small secluded cabin "off the grid", then you know that Max Grossman is now trying to elect himself some elected officials.

He uses some Houston billionaire to bankroll the little op and it looks like he will considering he already kicked in like $15K for the county judge's race. Just read finance reports, the proof is easily found.

So who does the Republican Max Grossman team up with? Well if attendance at a candidate's kick-off event for District 8's city council race, it appears to be another infamous Republican, Carlos Sierra.

Expect Grossman, Sierra, and probably at least one other political wanna-be to start fielding a slate of candidates. I've heard rumblings of them wanting to set up meetings with potential candidates so that they can identify who they are going to support.

The problem is, they have a messaging problem. The minute Sierra's involvement is known, *poof* they have big problem on their hands.

The bottom line is the douchiest possible pairing of political personalities are going to use an out-of-town billionaire to try to take over local politics. Special interest money is gonna be all over the place in this cycle.

This is probably one of the best arguments to move toward partisan city elections.
