Actually, Kinky has the best position of all four candidates on the abortion issue. You should have heard Kinky on Dan Patrick's radio show. Kinky positioned himself in a more pro-life stance than Perry or Strayhorn. Here's a good account by Lone Star Pundit (http://lonestarpundit.wordpress.com/2006/09/08/texas-gubers-on-abortion):
"Local talk radio host Dan Patrick — conservative, Christian and the Republican nominee for Texas State Senate District 7 — announced a month ago that if (when) elected, his first legislative priority will be to introduce a pro-life trigger law in anticipation of a possible Supreme Court revision.
A trigger law would serve to prevent costly litigation and delays in implementation of a pro-life environment in Texas. Upon reversal of the 1973 Supreme Court decision, abortions would immediately be banned with a trigger law. “When the Supreme Court puts a stop to the madness, I want Texas to be a state that protects life. With a Texas trigger law, we can save lives immediately,” Patrick said."
So Perry and Strayhorn have both refused to support this trigger law. But Kinky will support it:
"In a radio interview with Dan Patrick on Wednesday afternoon, Kinky was asked what he would do if (1) he were elected governor, and (2) Patrick’s proposed trigger law legislation were passed. Friedman’s first reaction was simply, “Well, I’m running for governor, not to play God.” But when pressed by Patrick as to whether he would sign or veto such a law, Friedman said that he would sign it."
