... Bill White, who’s running for governor, has already announced he is running for senate. He even announced this before he started running for governor.

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.

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.
