Unfortunately, based on a contribution list, you can pretty well make any politician look like he’s on the take for one thing or another. The Gardisel thing is much more complicated than Perry took money from Merck or a Perry guy used to work for Merck. Like all state politics, there are competing and conflicting interests, make the final decisions much less black and white than are often portrayed.

True, but we need to win this time. I hate for things like this to derail our chances.

Politics is dirty business. We don’t have the media on our side.

My husband was trying to get me to see the reality that whether we like it or not, most people watch the MSM and pay attention to little other than clips or campaign ads prior to elections. There is no getting away from it.

I get my news here and mostly over the internet.

Hopefully this time the misery index will make people ignore the attacks and vote to save their skin.
