I know Eric Thode from his days as an RA at Texas A&M. I don't care for the guy. But I find it interesting that he seems to have positive things to say about Campbell. The only negative is that he is a virtual unknown against a popular incumbant. Who could deny that?

I'll be watching Campbell. He might be a good protest vote against DeLay. The other two candidates (Fjetland and the other fjemale) are jokes, and very possible Demcorats.

Sounds like an opportunistic troublemaker to me.

"We need to return some decency and civility to the way we conduct the public's business,"

True, which is why we need to crush those indecent and uncivil democrats.

DeLay is one of the best republicans we have. I actually like him much more then I like Bush, and I don't dislike the President. The GOP needs to get behind him, and re-elect him next year. Send a clear message.

DeLay is an attorney? I thought he was an exterminator.

I can top you . . . Eric, who lived two houses down from my grandparents, used to own homing pigeons, and he did a pigeon lesson for my Girl Scout troop several times. ;)

I don't much care for Eric either, but I don't see him saying anything other than what a County Chairman should.

This on the other hand Fort Bend County Republican Party Chairman Eric Thode described Campbell as a credible candidate but one with low name recognition taking on a popular incumbent, may be the greatest understatement ever made.

I've been active in Sugar Land Republican politics for 20 years and I've never heard of the guy. He has never done anything for the party around here and I put his chance as just below ZERO!

""We need to return some decency and civility to the way we conduct the public's business," Campbell said."

Hey bub, guess you hadn't heard of the dimocRATs.
