If she wasn't or didn't believe the truther line all she had to do was disavow it with her answer. Instead she tried the politician's two step and got bit.
Medina has/had no chance in this election. Her protege Paul got just over 66,000 votes out of some 1.3 million cast in the primary back in 08. That group just doesn't ring true with most of Texas voters.
Her statement did not require clarification — it was, unfortunately, entirely clear. She has made further statements on other shows, and appearances on the Alex Jones Radio Show. She is apparently sympathetic to an anti-American propaganda movement, and is disqualified from holding any public office ... she is the anti-American equivalent of an individual that is withholding judgment on whether the Holocaust occurred.
Her “clarification” was a typical spin ... political damage control by a politician that came to the realization that she had committed suicide-by-interview.
She has lost my vote permanently and irrevocably, and I am thankful that Beck outed her before she had the opportunity to damage the credibility of the Tea Party movement.

Either she lied to Beck about the Truthers raising excellent points and the government withholding information needed to ascertain whether or not 9-11 was an inside job, or she lied one or two days later in her press release in which she told us that Islamists terrorists were responsible for the 9-11 attacks and that these aren’t the droids we’re looking for.
I think that the likeliest explanation is that Medina knows that 9-11 is not aninside job but is so beholden to the Paulite nutjobs that fund her campaign that she didn’t dare contradict their kooky Truther delusions on the air. Talk about being in the pockets of special interests! Medina would be no one’s governor but Ron Paul’s.
Either that, or she’s a 9-11 Truther and she lied the second time and not the first time.
Medina has our vote also. We met her last Thursday night....the same day of the fateful Beck call. After the call I was very disappointed realized I would have to vote for Perry.
I’m glad I went to the meeting. After hearing Medina speak in person and meeting her my confidence was won again. How many posting here have actually heard Medina speak in person......how many have actually met her in person?
Never mind that Medina is not a Truther and clarified her statements.
LOL!!!
I was definately leaning more and more toward Medina before she Uzi’d herslf in the foot on Beck. No amount of “who you gonna beleive me or your lyin ears”, is going to “clarify” herself out of this.
