I think Perry had the 11/2010 TX Governors race locked up a long time ago, but yeah, this military move certainly helps. As for DC, I saw a headline here on FR that said both TX Senators Hutchison and Cornyn have asked homobama for help, but I’m sure zero has yet to respond.
Good for my Gov. Now, if he’d kindly ask Kay Bailey to resign so he can appoint Mark Williams.
