Debra Medina Now Considering Senate Run?
phone survey | 02-22-2010 | Rose In Rosebear

Posted on 02/22/2010 10:14:16 AM PST by Rose in RoseBear

So I get a call this morning from a polling company. (I like getting these political survey calls; I like making the callers laugh.)

The questions all concerned the possible special election for Kay-Baby's Senate seat, which she swears she will vacate (I have my doubts). Although the poller asked about many candidates, the questions all seemed to center around Democrat John Sharp.

The list of possible candidates running against Sharp included:

There were three or four others, whose names I didn't recognize.

The poller asked who I would vote for if given the choice between Sharp and Medina, and I told her I would write in Mickey Mouse. She laughed, and asked me why I didn't like Medina. I had to explain Trutherism, and the poller (who had a strong NY accent) seemed amazed to learn that such people existed.

I was amazed to learn that Debra Medina was considered a viable candidate for the Senate. Has anyone else heard this?

Medina is a media whore. She just wants attention.

Right.

Medina is a joke and many of her supporters are as annoying as Lyndon LaRouche’s folks.

I haven’t seen any indications that Dan Patrick has his eyes on the Senate. Lt. Gov. Dewhurt has already talked about running for the seat if Kay leaves.

Medina is toast regardless of which office she seeks.

And John Sharp isn’t the only Democrat running for the Senate seat. Bill White, who’s running for governor, has already announced he is running for senate. He even announced this before he started running for governor.

Like running for a different office would help.

She is equally incompetent for both offices and has proven so.

Someone who can't seem to organize her thoughts to answer a question and spends days hedging on/explaining it is not ready for prime time.

Viable?............. lol

She may make an attempt but that’s about the extent of it, imo.

Sometime pollsters add names like Medina’s to test for name recognition and popularity. I doubt she would want to jump for Kaye Bailey Useless’s or John Crony seats.

Medina considered running for dog catcher but every time she went to the pound to try and find out what the dog catcher did she ended up locked in a cage.

Do you remember if this was Global Stragety Polling? If so they have done polling for Sharp in the past and did on in 09 basically looking at him versus Dewhurst with a few other thrown in.

She's a nutcase truther.

Does your statement mean you consider nutcase truthers fit to hold government offices?

Are you yourself perhaps a nutcase truther?
