Some Goober news

Chris Bell blew them away at the SDEC in Austin last Saturday. Go read the entire speech.

One Tough Grandma raised $1.5 million in the first ten days of June -- that was before she even declared for Governor -- and has over seven million samolians on hand, as of June 20.

But she's going to have to spend all of it and more to beat God's Own MoFo'n Governor:

Texas Republican primary voters would support incumbent Governor Rick Perry over State Comptroller Carole Keeton Strayhorn by a two-to-one margin, according to a recent poll.

Since the summer of 2001, Montgomery and Associates, an independent research firm based in Austin, Texas, has been running surveys tracking statewide political issues and elected officials. This survey was conducted from June 27 – July 1, 2005 and tested 905 Texans who had voted in at least one out of the past two Republican primaries. The margin of error is plus or minus 3.3%. Montgomery & Associates conducted the survey independently, and has not been paid by any candidate or party. In partisan political races, the firm works for Democratic candidates.



Damn, this is going to be fun to watch...
