AG Greg Abbot Sets Sights on Texas Governors Mansion

[TXARGUY]

I like Abbot, I like Perry, I think that they have made a bad ass 1 - 2 punch for the state of Texas. This could get interesting! Hopefully it doesn't provide a way for a f'n Democrat to slip in.

Abbot all the way

Eff yeah!

I'd support Abbot in a heartbeat. Perry has been a good Governor, but it's time for him to move along.

I really like Abbott, but Perry has done great for the state too. Hes done some dumb things like the land grab which would make me want to vote for Abbott. I just hope he would continue the same good business policies Perry has.

Why do politicians need to spend millions upon millions of dollars campaigning? Why not just keep it simple and say "I'm running for governor and this is what my plan is"

You do know who it was that opened it up legally for Perry to do the land grab don't you?

Yes I would support him in a heart beat, but he has been on of the best AG's a State could ask for.

He gets Texans. I'm down. As soon as he files I've got a check with his campaign's name on it headed his way.

Just hope it isn't a case of subtraction through addition....

 

[just jk]

i am not a fan of Perry at all

Perry has been alright about some things, however he certainly doesn't seem to mind selling Texas infrastructure (highways) to foreign corporations, to collect tolls for decades, and continuing with the Trans Texas Corridor, despite overwhelming opposition against it. He may seem alright to some people, when they look at a few of the pro-gun bills he has signed, but he's not without his faults. Under his office, there has been an unbelievable amount of corruption with TXDOT and a number of other people/politicians.

Perry is not nearly as pro-gun as he pretends to be. And, he embarrassed us all during the Presidential primaries.
