So I get a call this morning from a polling company. (I like getting these political survey calls; I like making the callers laugh.)
The questions all concerned the possible special election for Kay-Baby's Senate seat, which she swears she will vacate (I have my doubts). Although the poller asked about many candidates, the questions all seemed to center around Democrat John Sharp.
The list of possible candidates running against Sharp included:
The poller asked who I would vote for if given the choice between Sharp and Medina, and I told her I would write in Mickey Mouse. She laughed, and asked me why I didn't like Medina. I had to explain Trutherism, and the poller (who had a strong NY accent) seemed amazed to learn that such people existed.
I was amazed to learn that Debra Medina was considered a viable candidate for the Senate. Has anyone else heard this?
Won’t she need crash course about Federal issues before she’s considered qualified?

“I havent seen any indications that Dan Patrick has his eyes on the Senate.”
Yea, Patrick’s our next governor. He’ll have to clean up Perry’s mess though.
I take it Bill White's governorship campaign is intended to beef up his name recognition and he doesn't really expect to win against Perry.
You can call me whatever you want. But when someone is accusing our government and our President of killing over 3000 people when every expert on the planet has proven the "Truthers" wrong, I have a right to call her what I think she is.
She went on national television and made herself look like a complete fool.
I'm only familiar with the truther stuff because I really really despise Americans who are so hateful of their country that they are convinced that a government, that can't even keep the budget on task, would be behind the most horrendous event since Pearl Harbor? That ma'am is flat and simply disgusting.
Glenn Beck isn't the only show Ms. Medina has gone on, and I can say from the various You Tube clips of her interviews she has no business being near Austin's Governor's Mansion even as a tourist.
Truther crap doesn't sell well on Free Republic.
We lost 3000 people on that horrid day, and to go and spew this truther garbage spits on their memory especially the brave men who took down flight 93.
Which is why whichever Republican wins the GOP nomination should go negative on Bill White as hard as (s)he has been going on the Republican primary candidate as soon as the nomination is settled.
