Austin's alternaweekly, The Austin Chronicle, just came out with its "Best of Austin" issue, and Austin Mayor Will Wynn won twice -- he was the voter's pick for "Best City Official" and the Critic's Pick for "Hunkiest Mayor." I guess this is like when Mel Gibson won his Oscars for Best Actor and Best Director (Braveheart) in the same night.

In the Politics and Personalities categories...
Critic's Picks include:
Best Political Theatre - Pat Haggerty's Quorum-Busting Walkout
Best Lobbyist Who's Not in it for the Money - Anne Dunkelberg, CPPP

Voter's Picks Include:
Best Elected Official: Lloyd Doggett
Best Capitol Character: Tom Craddick
Best Scandal: The Craddick Imbroglio

(Wait, essentially Craddick wins twice, too? Is it considered a "win" when you win for "best scandal"?)

See them all for yourself.
