There is a lady who is a true Conservative running for Governor of Texas and, in the polls, she is closing in on Ted Kennedy's girlfriend, Kay Bailey Hutchison. Her name is Debra Medina. Check out her website:

Maybe on ronpaulforums.com? ;-)
LOL......I hope not !!!
You home or on the job ?
Hope yer well young lady !!
My point.....media darlings we avoid.
My votes are only for proven track records !
yeah, but did that help the school system in N.O! ;)
Actually I heard it did. :)
I got this off a radio report but Rasmussen did some polling and they found that if the election were between Perry and Democrat Bill White (former Houston Mayor), Perry would win by nine points. If the election were between Hutchison and White, Hutchison wins by 13 points. If the election were between Medina and White, Medina wins by three points. Taken for what its worth. I’m not sure White is going to beat Farouk Sham-wow or whoever the guy is but I just can’t see Texans electing a governor named “Farouk”. Of course, I couldn’t picture Americans electing a president named “Barack” either.
After listening to the latest ads from Perry and Hutchison singularly attacking each other, Medina’s ads ought to start
“I’m sure you’ve listened to Gov. Perry and Sen. Hutchison attacking each other in ads...and they’re both right. You shouldn’t vote for either of them!...” Her message should be “I’m the conservative none-of-the-above candidate.”
I'm home and heading back over there to work soon.
Very good possibility I will be in the 'Stan this spring.
Take care of YOU!
I will....family will be east of ya then. I am officially done with that now. Gonna fly a desk for a few more an retire .....again....:o)
Stay Safe !
She doesn’t have experience and she is not a leader. She is a loose cannon; does not work well with others.
You know what I like about Debra Medina?
1) She has experience in grass roots politics, and she
has never held an office. Just because someone has,
doesn’t make them a good candidate.
2} She is a leader
3) She is not a loose cannon
4) She works well with others
Private property is the foundation of freedom and capitalism.
If a person can’t own property then he or she is a slave to the state.
Property taxes are socialism/marxism/communism. Everyone is paying rent to the state so the state is the owner.
If Medina is for getting rid of property taxes then she is conservative and understands something about economics and freedom that most people have no clue of.
Eliminating Property Taxes: It CAN be done by Nelda Carrizales Skevington on Feb 01, 2010 WHARTON, TX, Monday, February 1, 2010 - In the race for governor, there is one candidate who is promoting ideas to secure private property and solve economic problems in Texas. Her name is Debra Medina and she is being met with friction from those who claim that the elimination of property taxes is not a realistic goal.
In true Medina style, she doesnt give up. She stands by her idea stating, “If we can lose our property to government, then we dont really own it

Agree. Medina is a Libertarian who is being pushed by Ron Paul supporters. She will only draw votes away from the two major GOP primary candidates. ....Like Obama, she has memorized some talking points and just repeats them every time she is interviewed on radio or elsewhere in the news. Her points on border control, gun control and property taxes, for example, are not doable; they just garner some votes.
No offense intended, but Medina’s Paulbot ideas would not happen. In Texas, the Governor is basically at the mercy of the State Legislature and only they can pass new laws. The Governor may possibly veto legislation at his/her peril, as the Legislators mostly represent “the people”.
Freepmail me or ping me from the original thread to get on/off the 2010 Texas Governor's Race ping list.
I am voting for Medina in the March primary. I am getting pretty tired of the REP-tards who keep attacking her. They are the reason we have RINOs in DC, as it is more important to them for Republicans to win than a principled candidate. Screw the constitution, elect a republican! Perry is a blah, blah ex-Democrat talking hero.
Not only will I vote for her but I donated $100.00 to her campaign. The Republican Party once stood for limited government, free markets, and personal liberty. It will again starting with Texas when Debra wins.
It appears that her proposals to eliminate property taxes, and gun registration do not make sense.
Yep gonna eliminate gun registration in Texas. Well do so say......... LOL
No Thanks, Not Ready For Prime Time!
Yes, thanks. She’s ready for prime time.
