I was pretty sure Bill White would be able to raise a ton of money for whatever office he wanted to run for next. So far, that's true.
Houston Mayor Bill White raised more than $640,000 in his first 15 days campaigning for the U.S. Senate seat being vacated by Kay Bailey Hutchison, according to a federal campaign finance report filed Saturday.White, who announced his campaign in December, also donated $120,287 to his effort and began this year with $737,000 in the bank. All the money raised by White for his Democratic campaign came from individuals.
The only other Democrat in the prospective race so far, former Comptroller John Sharp, did not create a campaign committee until Jan. 2. He will not report any fund-raising numbers until April.
What is he going to do if Kay Bailout Hutchison doesn't resign her senate seat and she loses the primary?
He really is putting the cart before the horse. As is everyone else.
