Actually there is a competitive congressional race that includes Galveston County (Ron Paul’s open seat). Democrat Nick Lampson is attempting to return to Congress and is facing Republican State Rep. Randy Weber. Bill Clinton campaigned for Lampson a couple of weeks ago. Galveston County is the conservative part of the district. Looks like it will be late before the outcome is known.
Randy has been my state Congressman for the past two terms. Great Christian Conservative. Really having an uphill battle for Paul’s Congressional seat. Pete Olson, our DC Congressman, supported Randy’s opposition - a RINO female - in the run-off. Just this last couple of weeks Pete decided to finally lend some assistance. If Lampson is re-elected, IMO the blame can be laid squarely at Olson’s shoulders. Believe Lampson’s major support is coming from East Texas and the Beaumont area. Remember the high school football band from Beaumont that had Big Bird knocking Romney off his feet???
