The hype is over the color of his skin, not over his qualifications. If it were the first white mayor in Shreveport, heads would roll.

So Matty.. I was with you up to that last sentence there ? I agree that yea, lets get past the 'hype' and onto business.. not that I followed mayoral business before :-) But I don't get that last bit ? if he were the first white mayor heads would roll ? Just curious.
