I actually heard a Medina ad on the radio recently. It wasn't bad.

waste of time for any conservative when there are so many other real targets..

The problem with Medina is ‘no track record’. She has even less of a background in politics than Obama. Speeches and advertisements mean nothing compared to her background.

Has she been a lifelong, conservative Republican? Or is she a Democrat crossover?

Debra Medina is no Scott Brown.

Interesting article about Strickland in Ohio with Kasich already passing him up by 6 points.

Not so much in agreement here. If we are to nationalize a primary, it needs to be McCain vs J.D. A McCain loss would send shockwaves through the Republican establishment.

BTW, in another thread someone said Medina was for open borders. Does anyone have verification of where she stands on that issue? My feeling from the start is to oppose KBH and support Perry by default with room for a third party IF they are conservative and can show they won’t drain votes from Perry but enable KBH to win. But if she is open borders she joins KBH on my “anybody but” list.

" So far there are no signs that true reform is taking place in the GOP. The people in control of the party during the worst two consecutive election cycle defeats in GOP history are still in control of the leadership nationally."

I would love to have an upset in Texas. Someone I would really get excited about voting for.

But for me, Medina ain’t it.

She says a lot of things we want to hear...but can’t be done, IMHO.

Of course, Perry and KBH do the same thing. But I’m not jumping on the “throw them out of office” bandwagon until there is a viable candidate.

What choice do we have?

Medina ad:

“Who is going to think more about Latino families? Rick Perry, Kay Bailey Hutchison or me, who has a Latino family?” (Medina’s cultural heritage is German and Bohemian.)

She told a colleague last month in an e-mail. “Being married, however, to someone with a Mexican American heritage, I certainly embrace the culture.” But before she explained that, she told my colleage, who had asked her whether she considers herself Latina: “I’d not consider myself anything other than a wife and mother, a nurse and a patriot. I believe we too often get into race when it’s immaterial.”

No, Thanks, Mrs Medina.

She is also running Spanish ads. Hello Mrs.Medina! If they cannot speak English then they have no business voting IMO. When they learn English then let them vote. Assimilate. Learn English. Appreciate all America gives you.

So I’m sure she is blowing a lot of hot air just like Obama did just to get elected. Running those ads and saying what she has, tells me the border issue is just a try to get votes for herself.

No, thanks, I’ll stick with ‘ol RINO Perry. Texas has remained in better shape than almost any if not all of the states in the union under Perry's watch. As someone said, 'he's the devil we know'.

The motly crew running for governor is laughable; a MUSLIM, a trecherous RINO woman* (Hutchison) and a woman with questionable loyalties

*Feds Have Built Only 32 Miles of 700 Mile Double-Border Fence Originally Mandated by Congress “One reason DHS has been able to do this is an amendment that Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R.-Texas) slipped into an omnibus appropriations bill that Congress passed on December 18, 2007. Hutchison’s amendment put a loophole in the fence law that allowed the secretary of Homeland Security not to build the fence Congress had mandated the year before.”
