Medina greets enthusiastic crowd at TFRW Convention
I recently heard from people at the TFRW convention. They said that Debra got a great response after completing her opening presentation to the TFRW members. I am pleased that TFRW made this gesture and did not try to ostracise Debra. A remark was made to a Medina volunteer that the TFRW wants to give all candidates a chance to convey their views on the issues. I was encouraged by that since the TFRW is a major driving force (in my opinion) behind the RPT.
The Galveston News reported on the convention and made the article about the fight between Kay and Rick. But they sited the old Rasmussen poll numbers instead of the latest UT poll that showed Debra up to 7+ percent. I hope you will go on the site below and express your displeasure that Debra was not included!
At any rate, I am pleased that it went so well. It was reported that after her speech, tee-shirt sales at the Medina booth were up, up, up!.
I hope someone who attended the TFRW Convention will give us a first hand report of how things went. We know we cannot rely on the media. txlibertylady is correct that TFRW is the organization within the Republican party that does the work and gets things done. I have good friends who are dedicated to this organization and I am glad to hear they treated Debra with respect. I believe there are many dedicated Republicans (men and women) who are so disappointed with the conduct of the Bush administration to fail to follow the principles laid out in the platform of less government intervention and less taxation. They want to see the party and its leaders return to the principle that gave us the big wins and allowed us to control the White House, the Senate and the Congress and many governorships..
KBH supported the Bush administration in over 90% of her votes, so we cannot expect her to be committed to limiting government. Anyone that believes RP has abandoned his goal of building the TTC, is wishing on a star. He has only learned about the 10th Amendment and become interested in what the citizens want, once the campaign season started. If he is elected he will be more arrogant that ever, because it will be 4 more years before he has to face the voters again.
The only candidate who has been consistant in her views and dedication to our Constitution as long as she has been politically active is Debra Medina. It is up to us to share this message with every voter who cares about the future of Texas and of our country! Debra Medina for Governor in 2010!!
