Mayor Mike’s finest moment

Mayor Mike

I was not a big fan of Mike Rawlings when he was running for mayor. He didn’t stand out as "a leader" to me. But how that has changed since he’s been in office! I can’t remember the last time I was this proud of someone sitting at the apex of the Dallas City Council horseshoe. First it was his impassioned, reasoned plea for the passage of the Flow Control Ordinance. Then there was his speech, which I made reference to yesterday, on behalf of charter schools in the City of Dallas.

If you missed it, you can see it in its entirety here, courtesy Dallas Morning News city hall reporter Steve Thompson. Trust me, it is well worth the eight to 10 minutes it takes to view the entire clip.
