LOL.
Ah, the good old days, when politics was a profession for those glib people not smart enough to be salesmen.
“Patterson won’t jump into this race nor the Senate race”
We should try to get him to go for Lt Gov.
Alas, Dewhurst has bottomless pit of his own money.
Gov. Palin is the real deal.
Am glad to see you didn’t get into the liberal trap.
There will be more twisting of her views and smears,
The media and the left in general see her as their worst enemy
Sarah's even got me thinking of voting again for Guv Perry!;^) Maybe if she'd tour with him and come back to Live Oak Co.. You know she used to come down here from Wasilla for H.S. summer basketball clinics?
Gov. Perry is a very good governor, signs every pro-gun bill and is heads and shoulders above the sorry excuses for governors in other states. Manages fiscal house well.
Palin. Perry managed to pull slightly over 39% of the vote the last time he ran. He's managed to offend the rural conservatives with his land grab plan for the benefit of foreign corporations and New York moneymen, and he offended the social conservatives by his plan for forced inoculation of all teenage girls at the behest of a lobbyist buddy.
And some conservatives think that Kay Bailey can do less harm in Austin than she can in DC.
I thought Palin had a cluel Now, nope.
Just more White Trash RINO.
Sarah, you just lost Texas.
Rick Perry +RINO tag = Mark White
Same guy, just a clone
“It’s Rules for Radicals Rule #12, destroy from within,”
Perry had a head start on that rule.
BTW Glenn Beck retracted his statement from yesterday (that Palin favors the stimulus package).
Well..........
My only strike against Sarah so far is this.
Perry has been fairly conservative but more by expedience rather than conviction.
LOL!!! Too, true, my FRiend, too true!!
I did vote for Kinky even as a conservative. I thought it would be fun to watch.
Seriuosly, the Governor in the State has less power that some other Governors, so he couldn’t do much harm.
I figured he would be benign.
Him and Willy The energy Czar smoking cigars and Doobs late at night. At least we would have a cowboy hat and a guitar in the Gov’s mansion L0L
What stopped me was the thought that Chris Bell might win.
So, I voted Perry
:(
Had a similiar experience with Rick Perry in 1996, at Rice University, when he was running for Congress (he lost to Steve Stockman).
He was paranoid, worrying about whether reporters were in the room. He mentioned it several times. He was afaid that if he opened up, someone would “mis-quote” him.
I thought “Hey, if you are telling the truth, your own convictions, what are you worried about?”
Mark White?
Damn....... and I was having a good time until now. Pass the rolaids!
I’ll give yoy that but do you remember his “Immigration” ad on TV?
He said he’d be tough on the border but turned around 2 weeks after the election and said we were all dreaming if we thought a fence would be erected (or something to that effect).
He started his political as a “D” and changed to a “R” for political expediency.
So the choices are Perry, Hutchinson, or Houston Mayor Bill White as Texas Governor. I’d begrudgingly pick Perry, but maybe Kinky will run again.( Actually, White, for a “D” has some common sense).
It's the honourable thing to do ...
