DMN profiles Mayor White

Bruce Nichols, the Dallas Morning News' man in Houston, has penned a glowing profile of Houston Mayor Bill White.

It's probably exciting reading for Dallas-area and state Democrats, who don't exactly have a slate of stars to celebrate right now; and the mayor's communications staff must certainly be happy to get the press after getting beaten up last week following MayorWhiteChiefHurtt's inadequate response to HPD's manpower shortage.

However, while the mayor is exceedingly popular, it is surprising that Nichols chose not to mention the mayor's occasional missteps, as reported from time to time by Chronicle reporters Kristen Mack and Matt Stiles (himself a former Dallas Morning News guy). Pardon our cynicism, but no pol can be quite as perfect as this profile suggests.
