Race for Governor

(Community Matters) Gonna be mighty tough.  With 91% reporting, 1.4mm Texans voted in the Republican primary for governor; 643k in the Democratic primary – the difference (752k Texans) is more than all those who voted D for governor.  Steven and I are enthusiastic Bill White supporters.  Subject to a viable road map with milestones for success, I’m gonna jump in.  Any plan has to include turning out D voters – a very strong GOTV efforts in targeted counties – as well as enough money for major media – against Rick Perry and introducing Bill White to the rest of Texas.
