HOUSTON -- Dave Wilson chuckles as he talks about his unorthodox political campaign. Id always said it was a long shot, Wilson says. No, I didnt expect to win. Still, he figured hed have fun running, because he was fed up with what he called all the shenanigans at the Houston Community College System. As a conservative white Republican running in a district whose voters are overwhelmingly black Democrats, the odds seemed overwhelmingly against him. Then he came up with an idea, an advertising strategy that his opponent found disgusting. If a white guy didnt have a chance in a mostly African-American district, Wilson would lead voters to think hes black. Wow this is a damn shame.
