In her most recent column, the Chronicle‘s Kristen Mack focused on the Harris County treasurer position that will be filled by former City Councilman and failed mayoral candidate Orlando Sanchez. Harris County commissioners are on the record now for abolishing the office. Amusingly, Steve Radack had a pointed comment about the new officeholder:
Radack said Sanchez’s campaign focused on himself and not the position.
“It wasn’t about doing a better job,” he said. “It was about Orlando needing a job.”
Sanchez does seem to enjoy the public trough just a little too much for an alleged conservative. It will be nice if Radack and company follow through on eliminating this office and sending Sanchez back to the private sector.
