Do you mean former Governor of Alaska Sarah Palin v. former Wharton County Republican Chairwoman Debra Medina? This is an apples to oranges comparison.

BTW, I'm not anti-Medina, I just don't support her for Texas Governor.

Chas.
Agreed...I should have expounded upon my comment. It was more geared towards those who are going after Medina as a 'truther' while many think it's ok for Palin to write her "Top Concerns" on her hand...not necessarily those on this board, which is why I left it as a short question.

But to be honest, I do not see Medina and Palin as that different. But that's just my POV.

And the thing that annoys me is that some people this this is fair...you are essentially punishing people for doing right.

:iagree:

I know I've gotten at least 5 people on Team Medina. They are telling everyone they know and I'm glad she's gaining traction. It's time for the 'Good 'ol boy' club to go.

The reality? That is exactly the attitude that has us where we are, choosing between the lesser of two evils and furthering the power hungry machine; same song different verse. Perry is strong in CHL though he doesn't seem to want to change the climate making CHL an additional option but allowing the rest of us subjects to carry as well. The requirement of a CHL IS an infringement.

So by all means, let's not waste our votes in the primary. Let's not run the risk of letting the "more evil" ones have a chance. Let's all bet on the favorite and ensure four more years of imminent domain abuses, foreign levy's through toll roads and favored status to the pharmaceutical contributors foisting more and more dangerous medical practices on us in mandates...oh geez.

Hey, we'll still have our $150.00 privilege of CHL though.

BTW, notice I haven't posted Hutchison's or the Governor's response? Because they haven't bothered to provide one.

:iagree:

I hope she can do it and I have been doing all I can to convince voters that she's the way to go. You want change, she's change. Not arrogance.
