Whatever happened to just staying neutral when it comes to having to choose between 2 candidates in your own Party?

In my opinion, he was governor for so many years, his ego, his sense of power became inflated. I believe that is a trend many office holders develop after many years in office.

The indictment Perry is under now, is abuse of power. “Grand jurors in Travis County charged Mr. Perry with abusing his official capacity and coercing a public servant, according to Michael McCrum, the special prosecutor assigned to the case.”

Texas doesn't have a limit on the terms of office of a governor. Perhaps we need to limit the number of terms one can be governor.

Perry was overall, a decent governor in that he was more of a conservative, most of the time, than a liberal.

Our present governor, Greg Abbott, is a true conservative all the time. He will likely be the best governor Texas has ever had.

If this is the same case I heard of, it is a ridiculous hyped up hypocritical case that doesn’t belong in the lap of my worst enemy let alone Perry. Why cite it.

I just see a difference between loyalty and a pledge of support given early in a race from stubbornly sticking with a good ol’ boy when there was a free choice. A man’s word has to mean something.

That’s just my opinion.
