I have just learned that Kelly Siegler will support Mike Anderson in his bid to oust the disgraced current Harris County DA Pat Lykos.
Siegler's goal is to restore integrity to the DAs office and she had only planned to run, I am told, if no other candidate of merit stepped up.
Anderson is qualified..........the question is whether or not he will have the fortitude of "David" and the political savvy to crush Goliath.
It will be interesting to see who Lykos gets to serve as her Jim Leitner throw down to insure a run-off and avoid the uncertainty of the general electorate.
Good luck and God's speed to Mike Anderson in this endeavor.

Go Mike! Putting Kelly back in a Harris County courtroom should be a top priority!
Mike needs to distance himself from Johnny Holmes and Chuck Rosenthal if he is going to beat Pat Lykos. Chuck Rosenthal has tainted the reputation of the pre-Lykos HCDAO. Ask Kelly Siegler how that worked out for her and ask Johnny Holmes how his legacy was also pissed on by Chuck Rosenthal. Shaving a moustache is insufficient to distance Mike Anderson from the good old days of whiskey and beer chasing skirt on the 10th floor in the old building. The CJC is a different place and a different time than what Mike Anderson remembers.
'Twas the night before Christmas,
When all through the CJC
Not a troll was stirring,
Not even Pat Lykos;
ADA gonads were hung
By the throne of Lykos with care,
In hopes that Judge Mike
Soon would be there;
The prosecutors were nestled
All snug in their beds,
While visions of no Lykos
Danced in their heads;
And witch Patsy on her broom,
and Jimmy in her crap,
Had just settled down
For long cold ass nap,
When on the the 6th floor
there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from my desk
to see what was the matter.
When what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniture Escalade,
and 8 tiny Jimmies.
With a dirty old driver
as she hacked and spat,
I knew in a moment
it must be Judge Pat.
Now, Jimmy! Now, Roger!
now Hannah and Joni!
On, Rachael! On, Stevie!
On Johnny and Joe!
To the top of the potty,
to the top of the stall,
Now dash away! Dash away!
Dash away all!
...................................
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL;
THE TROLL'S GONNA FALL!
JUST LIKE CHUCK ROSENTHAL;
AND HIS UNMITIGATED GALL.
How much weight do you think Chuck Roenthal's endorsement has?
Anon 10:59,
I assume you meant the endorsement of former disgraced DA Chuck Rosenthal and the answer would be zero.
No one cares what Rosenthal thinks except for Rosenthal himself....so who cares what his input is,if any?
I just hope Rosenthal hasn't reduced the impact of John B. Holmes' endorsement.
Political campaigns tend to reveal one's character.
What a candidate does, not says, is determinate as to how he will perform in office.
It is one thing for Mike Anderson to have received an email blast endorsement from Chuck Rosenthal and not posted it on his website for obvious reasons.
However, to seek and applaud the endorsment of a political whore by the name of Terry Lowry and brag about it on his campaign website is enough for this voter to withdraw his support of Mike Anderson.
As the Harris County DA campaign begins, Mike Anderson's conduct reminds me of Hugo Chavez critisizing the behavior of Fidel Castro–I really thought Mike Anderson was better than that.
Dear Devon Anderson:
Can you please explain to your DWI clients DIVERT is not for you because my husband is using this as a campaign issue? Maybe her partner Brock Thomas can explain it to her and stop getting DIVERT for his DWI clients also. Geeze politics is something else.
It is very disturbing for Judge Mike Anderson to label DA Pat Lykos' highly successful DIVERT program illegal if his criminal defense attorney wife is obtaining DIVERT for her criminal clients.
Mike Anderson and his wife remind me of Michelle Bachman and her husband---willing to say and do anything for their own personal advancement. Do as I say not as I do. LOL.
Black Ink you need to edit your profile---claiming "to support common sense values and ideas with the political independence to do what is right because it is the right thing to do" is a joke just like you.
Your blatant hatred for Pat Lykos does not allow for objectivity.
The Andersons are opportunists and hippocrits, period.

It's one thing for a spouse to properly represent a client and quite another for a standing DA to offer a program that goes against everything on the legislative record and law books. It simply isn't Devon's place to turn down the best offer made for any of her clients that can afford it (and that doesn't make Mike culpable for anything either way).
So, if you are supporting Lykos for whatever reason, using goofy little side issues by someone other than the opponent and failing to recognize that Lykos was the one to come up with the unconstitutional program, please opt out on voting in the primaries and on election day.
Anon 9:54,
Spousal behavior is impuned on DA candidates in Harris County and this time the poor behavior is actually true---were you living in a cave during the 2008 campaign?
Your defense of the Andersons' double talk is absurd and the public will see through it.
I will vote for Pat Lykos and so will the majority of voters.
And one more thing Anon 9:54:
"...using goofy little side issues by someone other than the opponent..."
REALLY??? What would you call the Rosenthal factor and emails falsly attributed to a candidate's spouse?
LOL!!!
XOXOXO,
