Well, Orion, I wish I'd previewed first. :-)

Hey, if this causes the exit of that feckless Scott McClellan then I am all for it.

The name I see is BRAD Not SCOTT ??

[daybreakcoming]

Brad is her campaign mgr this time around, yes. I believe Scott filled that position three other times. Other than that, not sure I understand what you mean with "The name I see is BRAD Not SCOTT ??"

[Bullitt]

I looked up a story on the Hous Chronicle site. Do you have another link where it says Scott Mclellan is her son? Thanks, I cant find it

[bpjam]

McClellan is her son and she also has another son working in the Bush WH. She is a solid citizen and one of the team and has been elected in TX a number of times. Ben Barnes I do have a problem with. Think 60 Minutes....

How many times has the lady been married. Her name is Keaton Strayhorn but she has a son named McClellan?

[daybreakcoming]

Strayhorn has been married 3 times and changed political parties 3 times. Her sons were from her first marriage.

[daybreakcoming]

One other note about the McClellan/Strayhorn family. The first husband (Scott's father) Barr McClellan wrote "Blood, Money & Power: How L.B.J. Killed J.F.K."

Always helpful.

From the begining of this campaign, when she was filling the radio air waves with her "One Tough Grandma" commercials, I was suspicious she was just a surrogate for the Democrats trying to split the Republicans while smearing Perry. Sort of a Ma Richards lite. With the background information you provide I now think she is just an opportunist, in more ways than one.

Thanks for the info. I couldnt find too much that looked solid. You know how the web is!
