Medina would make a terrific congressional candidate, though. She’s from Bee County, right? Bee County is in Hinojosa’s 15th CD, which is tough for Republicans but in which President Bush defeated John Kerry in 2004.
She was born in Beeville but now lives in Wharton county and chairs that county GOP. That is Ron Paul’s district.
Unless Medina is a Paulite, she could take on Paul in the primary, where she’d have a much better chance of winning than if she runs for governor.
