He doesn’t seem to be the idiot that his two most recent predecessors were.
Personally, he should have challenged Lyn’ Ted.
He’s a damn good governor, from what I can tell. And he was a damn good AG opposing Obama before that. Greg Abbot.
He had been a great governor. He will win with minimal effort and expense.
I was most amused when "Abortion Barbie" Wendy Davis his last democrat opponent suggested he was racist. Governor Abbots wife is Mexican, as mine I highly recommend them. To counter the charge Abbott said nothing. He just had his mother in law stand up and talk about her son in law, with a very heavy Mexican accent. The accent was not fake. That is just the way she speaks. Governor Abbott will be governor as long as he wants unless he decided to be President Abbott. Not a bad idea at all.
