that jogging pic looks like Halloween
The pic needs to be lined up with Obama hanging curtains, Kerry in his bunny suit and Dukakis in the tank.
Did something I’ve never done before. Voted straight republican. I hope millions of others do, too. With the exception of Colorado. I want Tancredo to win.
First CONGRATS and thank you for voting!
When you said that, I kept thinking of Nevada, where the complaint was that if you voted straight Republican on their machines, the ticket would automatically reset to select all democrats. Can you get over how blatantly they are cheating this year?
In a piece by BRADLEY OLSEN, Houston Chron:
But several problems have come to light since he left office.
The U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development faulted his housing department’s use of federal funds nearly 30 times, issuing findings that could require repayment of millions to HUD on projects worth more than $36 million.
The most severe issues have been at Metro, an agency that before White largely had been run out of City Hall and to which White appointed a majority of the board.
An FTA investigation found that Metro leaders failed to follow federal procurement rules, actions that cost the agency tens of millions and have significantly delayed a $900 million federal grant that was critical to the light rail expansion plan.
White has said he is not responsible for the actions of those Metro officials, noting that he did not meddle in matters of procurement as mayor and would have had no way of knowing they had botched the contracting process.

He also does a nice “What Me?” routine.
Goodhair will win because he has defied the EPA, and preserved the energy and manufacturing sectors in Texas. A ballsey move that has deflected teaparty ire.
I voted early in Texas. Straight republican with the exception of Governor. I voted for Kathie Glass over Goodhair. She’s more serious about the border. First time I ever voted for a libertarian.
I voted yesterday. It was tough, voting for Goodhair, but I had to do my part to keep the Dem out of the governor’s chair. Houston as a sanctuary city was the disqualifier.
White thanks you for that vote.
I’ve always voted republican. But there were always some local guy who I may have wanted to vote for. Maybe a libertarian. This year I said “To heck with it” and it took me about 10 seconds. I also noticed last Sunday that most people weren’t taking that long. I hope that’s a good sign. I also hope people do that in DE. Apparently islamabama and plugs are worried or they wouldn’t be spending so much time there.
Nice ‘jogging’ outfit! Street clothes and boots! This tells me he ‘jogged’ for about 10 yards for the camera shot, then sat down on that stone wall and asked the camera mope, “How was that take? Good enough? ‘Cause I’m getting tired and need to finish that bag of Cheetos I have laying on the coach.”
I don’t know why so many people have an antipathy for Perry. It seems to me that he has done a pretty good job of keeping Texas in a robust economy. In my county alone an average of 94 people a day are moving here. They aren’t coming for welfare. They are coming for jobs and a low cost of living. They are coming from the Rust Belt states and the northeast and are darn glad to be here in most cases.
I don’t see the Democrats doing anything to help this country. Why kill the golden goose here in Texas?
Yes, I remember when the Houston Chronicle was all giddy at the thought of White beating Perry!
A libertarian serious about the border-come on!
Occasional screwball statist things like trying to mandate the cervical cancer vaccine to 9-year-olds.
Yes, he does.
Note that here in Texas at least, you have the choice of a paper ballot if you wish.
Use it; it can’t reset when you turn your back.
