[no dems]

All four candidates, one GOP, one Dem and two Indys will be holding the only debate for Texas Governor tonight at 7:00 p.m. Central time.

Gee, I wonder whose influence had this debate scheduled during Friday night football?

[justiceseeker93]

Libertarians object to the intrusiveness of the federal government into the lives of the citizenry.

...As well as the intrusiveness of state, county, municipal governments, etc.

[Eaker]

I didn't say I was voting for Kinky. I said that I think that he is behind adopting Mexico's immigration laws and I was wondering if you or COEXER agreed.

Cat seems to have y'alls tongue on this simple issue.

Especially COEXER.

[Miss Marple]

A lot of people can't draw the parallel between Kinky and Perot. They also can't see the resemblence between Kinky and Jesse Ventura.

I hope Perry wins. If Kinky wins, Texas will lose any clout in the 2008 election.

[deport]

I am 100% against amnesty.

Okay.... So I guess you disagree with Kinky.

[Iscool]

Ya...10:00 pm Eastern...Don't miss it...

[Dane]

Kinky is an entertainer, go ahead and believe him if you want.

Pt Barnum was correct, "there is a sucker born every minute".

[KJC1]

I'm not from Texas, but I'm here now.

I can't take anything Kinky says seriously. His platforms, ideas, whatever just ring hollow to me. He might say A then do B, or even C, or nothing at all.

[deport]

I hope Perry wins. If Kinky wins, Texas will lose any clout in the 2008 election.

Perry will win and Kinky will finish 4th is my prediction. He's alreay polling in 4th in a poll of the Dallas Morning News. His biggest support group is the college crowd.

[Eaker]

So you cannot answer my question in post# 62.

Yer little friend in all caps can't either.

[Richard Kimball]

He wants to appoint Willie as Energy Czar. Willie's already the drug czar.

[Miss Marple]

Thanks for the info. It's good to know that Texans have common sense.

Tried searching C-Span for the PA Gov. Debate video, but for two days all I get is this:

"Preparing search: checkError: -2147024770 helpContext:0 descr:006~ASP 0177~Server.CreateObject Failed~8007007e source:Server object:"

Am I wrong that this is a Microsoft IIS server error?

[Eaker]

He might say A then do B, or even C, or nothing at all.

I agree completely.

I was just trying to get the opinion of our resident immigration experts, Dane and COEXERJ145 on his proposal to adopt Mexico's immigration policy.

I guess I must have forgotten to ping them.

[KJC1]

Yer little friend in all caps can't either.

Did you mean me?

My point is that I can't take him seriously. He could say he would seal the border, but believing him is another matter.

[Eaker]

Did you mean me?

No, I didn't mean you. I agree with you.

[montag813]

Debate will be broadcast live on C-SPAN (1) at 9:57 pm EST. Be there or be stuck listening to a humming Negro.

Oh so it's personal to you Eaker, no matter the fact that everything points to that kinky is basically the Texas version of a hollyweird liberal.

[DrewsDad]

Kinky has been all over the map on immigration. He originally backed the amnesty plan, then wanted to give millions of dollars to Mexican Generals to prevent immigration, then he wanted 10,000 Texas Rangers on the borders.

I don't think he's made up his mind yet. What can he say tonight on immigration to get your vote?

[hocndoc]

That's captioned wrong. It's Foghorn, the Governor, the Joker, and the Dingaling.

[Dog Gone]

He can say "Governor Goodhair" and that will be enough for the malcontents here.
