No.

I don’t work (paid or unpaid) for any political party or candidate.

Do you?

Lord! I guess no one can just spend their own time doing something because they believe in it anymore.

[palmer]

He also has crummy friends

I am not happy with Perry's friendship with "King" Aga Kahn, but I'm not inclined to withhold my support based on just that. I am still in wait and see mode.

[palmer]

As a favor to the rest of us, please answer her question: are you a paid or unpaid worker for any particular presidential candidate?

[lentulusgracchus]

I don’t work (paid or unpaid) for any political party or candidate. Do you?

No, not unless you count my poll-watching on Election Day 2010 for one of the GOP judge candidates .... and for Cathy Engelbrecht and her King Street Patriots, who are baggy-core Tea Party people. "Got the shirt" too.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

On November 2, 2010, Perry handily won re-election to an unprecedented third four-year term in the general election. He carried 226 out of 254 counties and polled 2,733,784 votes (54.97 percent) to White's 2,102,606 votes (42.28 percent).

He had received no endorsement from any msm outlet.

[ncalburt]

Your the one making the accusations here.

BY the way the entire GOP in TX has to deal with owner of
H-E-B and his rich buddies.
But the fact that Kay Baily Hutchinson and the Bush family crowd are fighting Perry makes Perry a decent choice.
There is no one perfect out there.

WHO DO YOU SUPPORT ?

[palmer]

thanks.

[lentulusgracchus]

No, but now that you mention it, what a good idea. But I think I will wait on Sarah to declare ...... and then I'll prolly just send her a check.

[lentulusgracchus]

I was talking about the 2006 election, when the voters had a wider range of choices .... not just "Red Light Camera" Bill White of Houston, former Texas Rat Party chairman.

[lentulusgracchus]

"Accusations"? List one. I asked some pointed questions.

And I support Sarah Palin, the next President of the United States and our best shot at a Rushmore-quality president for about the next 60 years, unless I miss my guess.

[Cincinatus' Wife]

As a favor to the rest of us, please answer her question: are you a paid or unpaid worker for any particular presidential candidate?

Listen "palmer" if you don't like my postings get lost.

There are plenty of other threads you can post to.

You don't like Perry? Fine.

You don't like me getting information to the forum? Tough!

You voted for Bill White in the general election for Governor.

[hocndoc]

I’m not “pro,” and yet spend hours and hours promoting the Governor. Not everyone has some hidden agenda, some of us just like our candidate.

What’s really funny is that I could have easily gone for -— most likely would have, after seeing “The Undefeated,” — Sarah Palin if she had just entered the race earlier. I started defending some of our Texas laws and events — and opposing comments like yours — and became more and more certain that Governor Perry is the candidate I want to support.

[HerrBlucher]

and the only person it ever worked against was Barry Goldwater.

And that is only because it was a very unique election, one year after the assasination of a popular dem prez and the veep Johnson rode those emotions to a landslide. No pubbie even had a chance to win, it was bad timing for Goldwater. In a normal year he would have done much better.

[ncalburt]

I support Palin too and she is supportive of Perry too and likewise.

The two seem to have mutual respect for each other and may end up on a ticket together. These two have the GOP DC insider crowd like the Bush, Hutchinson, Rove,etc completely freaked out since they would completely be out of power and influence.

I agree the TX GOP has been held hostage by HEB crowd for way too long.

But if you want to see some employed posters just watch the Perry haters swarm here at night. It appears to be a mix of Ron Paulites and some Axelrod Obots and they are use this newly created Soros-John Thorton funded propaganda website called the “Texas Tribune “

[ncalburt]

That is very interesting.
Since the HEB owner along with a few other millionaires worked hard to stop the TX GOP from passing serious illegal alien legislation. They are serious contributors to the GOP in the past.

"Appears" indeed, because most of them will not state who they support, its like pulling teeth and they never fess up. So, yes, they either must be the Axlerod gang or the Paulistas, or both. They are extremely annoying.

[Ditter]

Everybody on the Texas board does NOT call him “Mr. Goodhair! Just you “baldy”. ;D
