I was able to only catch the last 30 minutes of the debate a week ago. I thought Debra Medina handled herself very well for a newbie. In fact, I liked her answers better than those of Gov Perry and KBH. Those two seemed more intent on throwing jabs at each other while Medina was hitting on issues more.
Did anyone see the whole thing? Is there another thread on opinions?
I like Medina but find myself wavering. I think KBH would be bad for TX and am worried that if Medina and Perry split the conservative vote then KBH will pick up the majority. I think there will be quite a few Dems voting for KBH so I can easily see that happening.
Okay, Texans, are we going to let the miraculous events in Massachusetts be lost on us?
Let’s take a cue from what we can see with our own eyes:
NOW is the time to stand for the courage of our convictions.
NOW is the time to act in faith that change is in the voter’s hands
NOW is the time to replace the politicians with “working, down to earth” citizens who are ready and willing to serve and lead our country.
Don’t falter, people. If you like Medina for governor, let’s make her our Republican candidate. “The only thing we have to fear is fear itself”...ya’ll know who said that, right? Let’s roll!
Here’s a thread from the debate timeframe. It may offer a little info for you. I think there are probably some videos either from PBS or C-Span that may show the entire debate and they maybe linked on the thread. I just don’t remember

I really don’t think the dems will cross over that much as they do have several local and statewide races to be concerned with. JMO...
Take a look at the latest polls. Medina made quite a jump after the 1st debate. Also, Belo is going to allow her to join the next debate. She will be a viable candidate and worthy of a vote, IMO.
