See, this just shows how little merit you have.
You scream Abbott, Abbott, Abbott! He’s a conservative! Yet, you haven’t offered an ounce of evidence.
Well show me. Show some spine and defend his record instead of counterattacking. Explain why he’s the conservative solution, and why his record shouldn’t be discussed.
Abbott is your flying, spaghetti monster.
Besides, supporting Abbott is a good way to slam the loser Pauken and his wimpy troll of a son that ran away from FR after he was exposed.

see this. a rock solid conservative like stockman being attacked. a man *giving up a seat* to battle an absolute behmoth GOPe in the senate. he has little or no chance but he’s doing it anyway. it’s an absolute no brainer. have we seen this before: palin, bachmann, etc. that should tell you to roll out the big guns and support stockman. i’ve already written the check.
So how does being a good plaintiff/defendant translate into being a good governor?
There are lots of elected officials who are probably pretty good in court, but are terrible at legislating or leading.
The Governor of Texas has very little actual power, so the race isn't that important anyway. Lt. Governor is another story.

Ok so his principled decision on the merger says a lot.
His principled decision to support tort reform despite making millions from a lawsuit says a lot.
His decision to not take a stand against the practically criminal CPRIT says alot.
His silence about Douglas Karpen, the Kermit Gosnell of Houston, says a lot.
His paying tens of millions to private law firms for “legal services” says a lot.
His $30 million bankroll from just 200 sources, many Perry people, says a lot.
He only sued Bush twice despite Bush doing just as much unconstitutional government expansion as Obama says a lot.
That’s his record.

Ok, then set the facts straight, for the sake of everyone.

You don’t have to read the dallas news.
Go to the state’s own Texas Ethics Commission website or Texas Transparency to find out.
I’ve provided facts. You’ve provided empty diatribes.
Your whole reasoning for supporting Abbott is “Abbott is going to win the governor’s race.”
By that reasoning, it means you supported the “severely conservative” Mitt Romney because he was going to win.
” - - - He adds that on top of that, Dave Norman, the husband of Stockman staffer Bonnie Norman, filed to enter the race for Stockman’s congressional seat at almost exactly the same time the congressman filed to enter the senatorial race. Huls says he believes Stockman deliberately kept his entrance into the Senate race a secret so his staffer’s husband wouldn’t have much competition in the primary race to fill his old seat. - - - “
Are the financial backers of Dave Norman also the financial backers of Stockman?
Given that Stockman only has 32k and loads of debt, I wonder how many financial backers he really has lol
People can do their own research.
I support Abbott because he is a conservative, and as such, is being attacked by liberals.

Cruz is the exception that proves the rule.
Before Cruz, everyone complained all day long about how there were too many lawyers running everything and writing unreadable, bad legislation.
Now Cruz changes that mindset? He’s done a great job, but that doesn’t mean we no longer have a lawyer problem in Austin and Washington.
