Hmmm.
Looks just like all the rest of them to me. Looked the site over and he was 
just another suited up pol saying the right things, smiling and kissing all 
the babies. The Democrats need someone with a sharpness about them, someoen 
who will galvanize the voters, a hispanic/white guy who is black and talks 
like Humphrey Boagart, John Wayne and wears a white hat and is smart to 
boot. Kinky wears a black hat and he is my choice hands down becasue he is 
neither a Dem or a Elephant he's a maverick and we need more mavericks with 
monkey wrenches to throw into the ENRON cogs.

>The Democrats For Texas MeetUp at Scholz Garten Wednesday evening had 
the usual, reports, announcements, TX Rep. Strama, told some annecdotes 
about the DNC meeting before he had to get back to his House legislative 
duties. David Holmes was introduced, our Natl. Committeeman to the DNC from 
Texas.

>But the surprise of the evening, for me, was a dynamic speaker, Chirs 
Bell, a defeated Democratic congressman who got DeLay-ed, aka redistricted, 
out of his Houston area constituency. He is first announced Democratic 
candidate for Governor, and he is as impressive as any candidate I've seen 
in a long long time.
>
>He made a quietly impassioned speech about what Gov. Perry had come out 
of his office to say at a recent press conference: that it is not the 
function of government to offer Hope. He took this and made Perry seem like 
a rude Dickensonian Scrooge. He lamented that the Republicans are an 
uncaring party who only seek to represent corporate interests and the 
richest people in our society. By the end of his speech some 200 people in 
attendance, everyone in the room, positively jumped to their feet in a 
standing ovation that went on and on.

>He's gonna be one to watch--jumping in, off and running first, has 
cache. He was accompanied by an entourage of a half dozen fresh, bright 
young people with clipboards who quickly filled up pages of individuals who, 
like me, were impressed by his obvious dedication, indeed, passion even. One 
of his young people told me they were on their way next to a similar meeting 
of YD's on campus. Former Congressman Bell generously took time to speak 
personally with dozens of individuals magnetized by his obvious charisma, 
including me. See the link below for more on this promising candidate.
