A Warning For Mayor Pothole?

I wonder where editorials like this were when Mayor Pothole was going to the race card to hold off challenger Orlando Sanchez in the recent mayoral election?

This may actually be a disguised warning to Mayor Pothole from the Greater Houston Partnership. Mayor Pothole surprised everyone (probably even the Chron) by announcing during his inaugural address that he would be working to overturn term limits during this, his final term as mayor, something he did not mention during the bruising campaign. The final paragraph of the Chron op-ed seems like a shot across the inept mayor's bow:

The urgent and massive repairs needed will require Mayor Brown's enduring and focused attention. This is one job that cannot be delegated and forgotten.

It's unclear that Mayor Pothole understands such subtleties, of course. Perhaps one of his high-priced assistants will explain it to him.
