| Bryan Daniel, the Republican nominee in House District 52, is spending a lot of money to spread a lot of misinformation about his opponent, Diana Maldonado, who recently received the endorsement of the Austin American-Statesman. Luckily for him, Daniel has friends like Speaker Tom Craddick to help bankroll his misleading attacks. After Craddick's Stars Over Texas PAC contributed $125,000 to Daniel's campaign, the Statesman's Laylan Copelin is reporting that the PAC has given Daniel an additional $100,000. Bryan Daniel is a guaranteed vote for the failed policies of Tom Craddick. He's been bought and paid for and has even adopted the same kind of "say anything to win" mentality that has run rampant in the DeLay-Craddick Texas Republican Party. Diana Maldonado will be a voice for all of Williamson County and will not owe $225,000 of gratitude to a single corrupt politician. Update: I forgot to mention that, as Phillip reported a few weeks ago, Maldonado had over a $250,000 cash on hand advantage over Daniel. When you only have $19,000 on hand and then receive $100,000 from Tom Craddick's PAC can you even claim independence? |
