Carlos Masso, The Perfect Choice to Lead the Unethical Democratic Party of Cameron County

For once I agree with Silvia Garza-Perez, who, according to El Rrun Rrun,  is relinquishing her unpaid post as Cameron County Democratic Chairperson to run for Cameron County Judge. Silvia's aunt, Herminia Becerra, the infamous politiquera, is a bit long in the tooth for the position and her counterpart, Margarita Ozuna, has been ordered to refrain from political activity for one year.

Carlos Masso, is a near perfect default choice to steer the sleazebag factory known as the Cameron County Democratic Party.  It's not just the brief

revival of his law practice to "defend" politiquera Margarita Ozuna of election fraud.  That may have been necessary to keep a proverbial lid on things. But, Masso was allegedly an organizational and financial player in perhaps the last Cameron County election to openly utilize politiqueras, the harvesting of votes from the elderly, mentally challenged and disabled and the abuse of mail-in ballots, the July 2012 Democratic Primary.  It was claimed, but never publicly acknowledged that the Erin H. Garcia campaign ran short of funds before that primary and was assisted by Masso.

We may never know that for certain, but, post election, Ernie Hernandez, Erin's father, was politicking fast and furious to create a new Justice of the Peace position for Masso in an obvious political payback.

Just think:  Gilberto Hinojosa, Silvia Garza-Perez and now, Carlos Masso.  Does anyone in the Cameron County Democratic Party even care about ethics?
