PORT ISABEL, TX - The bar is alive with the sounds of enough yapping to drown a freakin' airplane crash. It's a mellow Tuesday night and people are out for a fight. Everybody's up for something or another, Life included. The night is young. The moon is out. The place is buzzing. I lean back on my highchair and take it all in. There's gotta be a Beat-Me-Woman cowboy song playing somewhere.

Can that guy half-hanging over the bar be right when he says all Rio Grande Valley politicians just want voters to kiss their ass? Or that woman sipping a juicy drink, the one who just said something about how voting around here is no different than doing nothing. She's got the face for anger, a rough-hewn lower jaw that surely cracked a few walnuts in her younger days. The woman is wearing a red dress, ready for war.
Is that fair? Do area voters merely pucker-up and kiss State Rep. Rene Oliveira's ass when he postures for re-election? For State Sen. Eddie Lucio (Lucchio to Obama)?
Does Cameron County Judge Carlos Cascos spread'em when he comes knocking for support? Same for Cameron County Commission candidates Ruben Pena and Ernie Hernandez? Do they do the Naked Limbo? Brownsville, old sport, how low can you go? In town, the politician's ass is the current attraction. Residents of this poverty-stricken county like to say they're lovers and not fighters, but will Commission candidate John Woods' ass do in a pinch.

Appears the boys and girls inside this hot & humid joint are onto something.
You think? I ask for a shot of whiskey...and get a double.
