Houston Mayor Bill White will host dinner in Austin tonight for about forty progressives who were part of grassroots group, Texans for Obama. White is seeking the US Senate seat of US Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, R-Texas.

"He has always struck me as someone who doesn't shy away from tough questions," said TFO Founder Ian Davis. "So I thought I'd get some smart people together to ask him tough questions and see how he does."

Davis (who has his own Wall Street Journal dot matrix picture) hasn't formally thrown his support behind any US Senate candidate, but says if White impresses him tonight, "That'll pretty much be it to get my support."

I wonder if there's steak involved in that dinner?
