| Gov. Perry apparently is ramping up the rhetoric in advance of the 2010 gubernatorial race. Today in the San Antonio Express-News an article highlights the harsh tones Perry is launching against the Feds to present his "tough for Texas" stance. Setting the Feds as the target essentially gets Sen. Hutchison in the sights, preparing the debate for who is really better for Texas. I'm sure he'll use this opportunity to start distancing himself from Bush as well, eyeing the Republican defeat as an indicator that pro-Bush is not a good banner to carry.
Perry appears to be in a tough fight for the Republican nomination for the governor's office. Unless the Ds launch a very credible candidate to match up against he and Kay this will shape out to be the real race. The question to ask then will be if the loser tries to launch an independent candidacy for the general election in November, 2010. I know we've talked about the candidates in here before so I ask the question of if this article brings to light any new information.
Also, have we seen any real challengers in the Democratic camp that can match the likes of these two in Texans' eyes (remember, I said Texan not Democratic Texan)? |
