TX CFL Coordinator Debra Medina files to run for Governor of Texas!!!

Hutchinson, however, voted against this stimulus package ...........

It's reasonable to say she only voted against it because of the current politics. She voted for the bailout, with a very condescending speech about how all these people calling to tell them to vote it down just didn't understand the changes they'd made from the first House version.
 
from meetup email:

Dear friends and patriots,

we have a candidate! (if we make it happen. It is now up to us!) last week debra medina filed for office and appointed a campaign treasurer. This is not a formal announcement, it is just the initial ground work to allow things to get started. Debra has certainly caught our vision of what it could mean to have a governor of texas who is committed to the people of texas and committed to our constitution. She is willing to take on this challenge, but she needs to know that indeed, this is the desire of the people.

Many of you will already know debra medina. Debra has been a hard worker within the republican party and serves as the wharton county chairman for the republican party. However, debra has never put party before principle. For those of you who may not know debra, go to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p1zc26kgb5i and listen to her speech at the republican state convention last year in houston . While the republican party has tried to marginalize ron paul for years, debra has been a strong supporter of dr. Paul. She is currently the state coordinator for the campaign for liberty. Debra has helped form a group called operation come and take it, to build not only support for the idea of liberty, but to educate supporters on the fundamentals of liberty needed in order to effectively share this message with others. Debra has established her own educational organization called, ambassadors institute, which also offers instruction in the constitution and the fundamentals of liberty. Debra brings not only her political skills with her, but also business and management skills. Debra is a nurse by training and has run her own business for 7 years. She and her husband noe medina have a grown daughter janise and a son jacob, who is a sophomore at blinn/texas a&m. Debra is a native of texas and a 20 resident of wharton, tx. Debra is very proud of her heritage as a member of the daughters of the american revolution. She is also eligible for membership in the daughters of the texas revolution. Now, she is willing to be part of the current revolution, to return government to the people of texas!

When we asked her if she would consider running as the "people's candidate" for governor, she was shocked and a bit overcome. She stammered, "i have never thought about anything like this." we assured her that was part of her appeal. We are all tired of people who have spent their life time positioning themselves and cutting deals, so one day they would be "anointed" to office. We are asking her to serve the people. Understandably she said she would need to give it some serious thought and discuss it with her family. She immediately acknowledged that her plate is very full. Her daughter getting married in april, as well as her commitments for the campaign for liberty and to the republican party. However she did not give us a definite "no." indeed, she said she had spent her life trying to walk through the doors that were opened "where she could be of service to other."

while debra has been considering what taking on such a challenge would mean to her and to her family, now she also needs to know that this is not just the request of a few individuals. She needs to know there is broad based support for a "peoples candidate" and for her personally as that candidate. So friends, this is it. This is where we can make it happen. If you believe debra is the kind of candidate you would like to see as the next governor of texas, please let her know. E-mail her at [email protected] . Send this message to all your friends. Post it on all the blogs and forums and ask others to contact her also. Financial contributions will also be an important measure of support. Checks can be sent to the debra medina campaign, c/o mark vasek, 904 w. Montgomery ste, 4-506, willis, tx 77378.

There is no doubt debra can bring support from other republicans who, like herself, have been disappointed that their party has not lived up to its own platform. Now it is up to us to bring support from the volunteers of the ron paul revolution, who saw debra stand almost alone in defending our right to have a voice within the republican party. This is going to be a huge challenge and we will need each of you to continue doing whatever it is that your heart leads you to do to support a "peoples candidate," one who truly cares about liberty, freedom and our constitution and one who can be on the ballot for governor in 2010.

this is awesome we finally have our candidate!!!

wow!!!
 
I think she has an uphill battle. When she tried to win the GOP of Texas chairman position during the State convention she was soundly defeated by Tina Benkiser, who sladered her maliciously about the lawsuit we had here during the convention. She will now need to win over this same base to win the primary election. From my expirience this is the heart of the religious right who put the bible before the constitution. I think with the cities going more liberal she should run as an conservative independent but that would put her in with the likes of Kinky Friedman so she will need all the support we can muster fighting this.
 
Perry is slamming Hutchinson with the bailout already. Bad News: one of his campaign guys is already using " Kay Bailout Hutchinson."
 
Against Perry, maybe we can use that he wanted to force Texas teen girls to take those guardisil shots - now there are dead teens and very ill teens and the vaccine is suspected, I was reading about that just the other day.

Against Hutchinson...I was looking at her voting record, she voted with dems enough so there will be some goodies in there, I'm sure - haven't looked closely at the stuff yet, tho.

seems like she had a computer scandal of some sort back before she was in the senate, i don't remember though 'cuz that was probably more than a decade ago.
 
would "Funky Cold Medina" work as a campaign theme song? probably not, i'm guessing.


anyway, bump. great stuff.
 
Maybe my idea of hanging "effigy" taxpayers in trees in your front yard with signs below them that say "Texas Taxpayer, hung out to dry by KAY BAILEY HUTCHINSON, R, REPRESENTING WALL STREET" can find a use in this race?

:D

I hope your not joking. That sounds really good. Please do. I will be expecting pictures.
 
THere is a problem here.

The liberty vote will be effectively destroyed by dividing our votes between Larry Kilgore, Debra Medina, AND Kinky Friedman. Capitalized the last and because that is 3 ways...
