Evan Smith of Texas Monthly spots five Texans on the long list of people who have raised at least $50,000 for Obama.
At least five, as I recognized from a quick scroll through the list of names, which have no cities or other information provided: Ron Kirk and Cappy McGarr, both of Dallas, Mikal Watts, of San Antonio, and Kirk Rudy and Alexa Wesner, both of Austin.
Watts, who explored a senate run last year, had supported John Edwards before he dropped out of the race. Wesner was one of the masterminds of the $1 million Paint Texas Blue fundraiser a few weeks ago that will help Texas House candidates.
