Wasn’t there a gent from TX who was once part of the TX Railroad Commission? He thinking of the Senate then decided against it.
Yes, that guy might run for the other seat or something though, in two years or so, right?
Michael Williams. He’s now running for Congress from TX-25. Frankly, he ought to be the Governor of Texas.
Yes. His name is Michael Williams, and he’s running for Congress instead, in the newly redrawn TX-25 (which will definitely elect a Republican). He’s the potential black Congressman from Texas that DJ mentioned. Michael Williams first has to win a tough primary, though, with former TX Secretary of State Roger Williams (no relation) being his main competitor. Michael Williams is the real deal, and I hope he wins his primary and joins the U.S. House of Representatives, where he’ll be a superstar; he can then run for the Senate in a few years (maybe in 2015 after incoming Senator Ted Cruz is named to the U.S. Supreme Court).
Michael Williams. He is running from Arlington, Tx now.
