Parker is smart and competent. She managed well enough to get elected the maximum number of times. She still gets attacked by the far right crowd over nothing, though.
It's not as if straight white guys don't have a shot at being mayor of Houston. Bill White was one of the best mayors the city ever had, and everyone loved him, too.

How adorable. Firstly I'm the one who was told what I should believe, and then when I challenged it... now I'm the one foisting my "unfounded opinion on people" and apparently MILLIONS of them.
Your focus is on me, while the point is that the people of Houston voted down a horrible law which this "competent Mayor SMARTLY tried to pass through without anyone actually noticing", but they did notice and took her to court where she lost!!!
She may be "competent and smart" however she is also "cunning, devious, and dishonest"... but hey, she's gay so she gets a pass by people like you. Her gayness is far more important to you (and your ilk) than it is to me. Just like anyone who makes a negative statement about Obama is a racist.
Many of you should be ashamed of just how shallow you, as a whole, have become. Unfortunately, you see it as a virtue.
