Too bad you turned this into a negative. It’s not meant to be that way at all. If more people sought out good candidates rather than fronts; maybe we wouldn’t be having the problems we are.
Oh, I heard a good one the other day. Some PR bs about Medina going to speak at a meeting. Instead of being at the meeting ready to speak on time; she’s out in the parking lot chatting away because that’s who Medina is. LOL
If she were any kind of a leader she would be in that meeting ready to give her speech. That’s called respect.
So go ahead and elect another Arnold like idiot. That’s too bad because we will all have to pay for it.
It’s obvious you have no idea what a leader is. What a shame.
The Texas GOP Front Man, Rick Perry. The many faces of the Perry the showman fraudster:

He seems to be an actor just like Arnold.
I am so glad you decided who I am and you couldn’t be more wrong.

That's your response?
Some stupid unsourced anecdote?
Please, tell me the policy similarities between Medina and Arnold.
I'm heard another good one.
Some so-called conservative Freeper actually criticized a candidate for being "too combative". I'm nominating it as the most worthless, crybaby, establishment fellating whine of the decade.
Boo-hoo; she's combative. Let me wipe the tears away as another RINO bites the dust.
Hey Texan My response: Myself and others have already commented numerous occasions on our objections of Medina's run for office. I'll assume you have studied her as well and arrived at your own conclusions. We disagree. But all are welcomed to voice our opinions unless this thread is a caucus.
.....”Otherwise butt out”.....
Not a chance I'll butt out...just as I commented on other threads concerning other candidates So also will I continue to comment on Medinas threads. Furthermore one does not have to reside in the state of an election to affect that election....or the candidates that run. Medina is a candidate I oppose, and as much if not more so in Texas. Additionally I was in contact with her campaign office early on in her run in order to determine her stance on issues. So of course I will not butt out.. and you are out of line saying this...but of course you free to object.
Pretend for a moment that I only have an hour or two to scroll through threads on FR, and just tell me what those comments happen to be rather than making me run through your posting history.
I'll pose the same question that I've asked of other Medina bashers. What policy positions, with respect to the power of the Texas governorship, do you think would be detrimental to our state?
Waaa....Waaa....Waaa
Can’t take a reality check; can you?
.Medina is a Libertarian and knew if she ran as this it would not go over with Texans...(Ron Pauler)
.Her expanded sales tax from 6.75 to 14% or more will hurt the middle class and business, not to mention the poor.
.She’s against border fences except in urban areas heavily populated.
.She supports Latinos rights and does not support photo Id’s for voting.
.She wants to decriminalize illegal drugs.
.She does not believe in local gov. or police in helping to keep Texan border secure, rather Federal Gov. alone.
.She wants all hospitals to treat everyone including illegals.
Aside from just these there are surely others throughout this thread, and I could elaborate on that listed here.
Furthermore ‘she attacked Sarah Palin’ for supporting Perry not to mention ‘sued the Republican party’..which by the way the case was dismissed.
She is running her campaign just as Bo did and appealing to masses exactly the same...when asked a question, she has not “canned”, she has difficulty responding. She is trying hard to be ‘a Palin re-tread’.
And lets not forget that Hutchinson loves the fact Medina is pulling votes away from Perry...which means a vote for Hutchinson as all well know. It’s called splitting the party of course... and she knew this going in. Of course we can pretty much quarantee she’ll have a job on the Hutchinson team when all is said and done.
By the way I see you are a LIBERTARIAN yourself which then explains much of your support for Medina....figures!
I agree. H-gunner provides laughs AND great points (a little 'best of' the 'gunner):

Well thank you kindly!
Good Morning FR! A ping to a thread that gave me a laugh to start the day.
He and Eaker double ROCK.
So simple, even a caveman NURSE can do it!
I don't care that she wants to end the failed War on Drugs; that's a positive, and would spell the end of much of our federal authoritarianism.
Any true Texas knows that the sales tax rate is 8 and a quarter, not 6.75%. But I've seen this inaccuracy all over anti-Medina web material, so whoever you've copied this information from did you a disservice. Jumping from 8.25% to around 12-14% is an excellent way to finance ending Texas' sky high property tax.
You're right, it would probably initially effect the poor more, since they are less likely to own property. But like I had to explain to my liberal friends after Bush passed his tax cuts "YOU HAVE TO ACTUALLY BE PAYING TAXES IN ORDER TO BENEFIT FROM A TAX CUT". Libs never seemed to understand that.
All of your immigration criticisms of her are also wrong:
Calling sufficient numbers of Texas National Guard and Texas State Guard members to active duty to support local law enforcement particularly along areas in between legal ports of entry to combat drug and human trafficking;
Notifying Mexican authorities that the Texas Border will be secure and no entry will be allowed without proper documentation;
Insuring that Texas District Attorneys and Texas Attorney General exercise full prosecutorial power and have sufficient resources to enforce human slavery and child labor laws to their fullest extent;
Assisting local and state law enforcement in deporting individuals convicted of violating state or federal law;
Insuring that private citizens have the ability to protect themselves and their property without fear;
Insuring that the interests of Texans are protected by seeking legislation and enforcement actions that respect Texas sovereignty in the face of international treaties, like NAFTA, that violate Texas state sovereignty; These treaties create poverty in Mexico and Central America and benefit corporate investors. This poverty drives people to migrate north. Insuring that the interests of Texans are protected, Debra Medina will interpose, support nullification and declare unconstitutional all international treaties that violate Texas state sovereignty. We will not recognize those treaties or enforce their regulation or taxation.
Eliminating social incentives to illegal immigration by seeking legislation prohibiting use of state funds for service or benefit of illegal aliens.
As for "Latino rights" (I don't know what that is), and the photo ID bill, you've mischaracterized why she came out with that position, so I'll once again do the work for you and post her explanation:
What is your stance on the Voter Photo ID bill from the last session?
DM: Do not believe photo ID will serve to prevent illegal voting until and unless the issuance of photo ID is restricted to U.S. citizens and legal aliens. Texas currently issues drivers licenses to individuals who admit to being in our state illegally. We should work instead to tighten voter registration requirements and to insure that the voter rolls are accurate.
Lastly, I don't give a rat's ass what Sarah Palin says, as she deserves to be criticized for supporting the RINO in the race.
So nice try, but an epic fail on your part. Back to the drawing board for you.
Actually, why don’t you replace that with a McCain for President 2008 button?
