Go Gov. Perry – I am not in Texas but if I were you would have my vote (unless something changes between now and then). Gov. Sarah Palin is one of my role models, and with these facts as listed above it would be an easy choice for me – (pro-life, conservative, pro-gun, “Perry and Palin see eye to eye on domestic drilling and other energy issues, the two, together with South Carolina’s Mark Sanford, argued against increasing the country’s $10.7 trillion federal debt, the three warned that doing so risked collaping the U.S. economy”.)

Gov. Perry sounds like my kind of Governor ; )

KBH may be more liberal on abortion (which is a big, big, big issue for me!) one thing I would encourage Texas Republicans to do is figure out where the party is best positioned to win in November on 2010. She’s also pretty much conservative on everything else, fiscal policy, foreign policy and when you break down her scores from pro-abortion groups like NARAL and so forth, her scores are in the 20% range, meaning she usually votes for abortion restrictions.

This sounds like an 80/20′er, Sen. Hutchinson sounds like she’s on board most of the time and that on most issues, issues that really count, she’s reliably conservative.

Can Rick Perry win again? He’s a two term govenor. It could be in the best interest of the Texas GOP and the people of Texas to nominate Hutchinson.

Maybe I should just shut my mouth though. I am a Californian, and as you can see we know how to elect GREAT Republican candidates (last sentence dripping with sarcasm.)

Why is Hutchinson running against a sitting Republican Governor and leaving another GOP Senate Seat at risk? This is damaging to the party.

…with only 38% of the total vote. Many former GOP voters protest voted for the 2 independents Kinky and Grandma. Between the 2 they took about 30%. And the dem, surprisingly took 30% even though he’d poll’d in the low 20% range during the campaign. So Perry won by the skin of his teeth mostly because of his lack of action on the illegal/border issue. Continuing to allow the Mexican government to trump the voters. Like his buddy George W. Bush. That issue is important down here.

Perry and Hutchison are not as well loved in TX as people think. They’re both Bush style globalist/moderates. But then so is Palin, in my opinion. DD

Out of that whole state, the best you guys can come up with is KBH and Perry? EPU, Haystack, start your pac, boys. We need a Republican in Texas!

Proper grammar saves lives.

Activists Taking Action: Unified Patriots

repeatedly. Two of her votes were for TARP and for S-CHIP.

I was going to phrase that subject differently, but, site rules and all. Anyways: Ashley Judd is doing the typical liberal not understanding of conservation efforts and has teamed up with Wildlife Action Fund to take shots at Sarah Palin:

In a video premiering on the organization’s new Web site, EyeOnPalin.org, Judd takes aim at Palin for allegedly promoting the aerial killing of wolves in Alaska, and goes so far as to accuse Palin of proposing bounties for severed forelegs of killed wolves.

But not the good things.

1) His ill-advised proposal for mandatory vaccinations of all girls (which, by the by, would have had a huge financial benefit for one of his major contributors).
2) Billions of $ for a “virtual fence” that they have had to admit doesn’t work.
3) The TransTexas Corridor–a multi-billion dollar boondoggle to cut through the heart of Texas, on the back of heavy-handed eminent domain.
4) Worked behind the scenes to cut research money from Texas Tech because of his school, A&M. And, as I recall, actually vetoed the same.
5) Has not a single, major proactive policy initiative to his name–what he has done is after the fact, see #2.
6) Under his watch, Texas has seen more and more Democrats elected.
7) Like Bush, he is constantly assaulted with negative “news” stories, and–like Bush–never rebuts or attacks. This has lead to the same effect statewide as Bush saw nationwide–making the R brand toxic. (see #5).

To his defense, though: A) Texas is designed to keep the governor weak and impotent. B) The liberals here are really crazy–they don’t call Austin “Moscow on the Brazos” for nothing.

Really, I think he is a good guy, and I’m sure he tries hard–there’s just a lot of very entrenched interest in this state and he lack the charisma, charm or ability to go around them directly to the voters.

We call him “Governor Goodhair,” the former Aggie milkman (cheerleader).

is the conservative we need to put in the Senate. He is currently the RR Commissioner, has won statewide elections twice and has already announced his intentions to seek KBH seat.
Perry has been in office for 10 years and is 50/50 on winning re-election, IMO. KBH wins in a landslide.
