<p>Every election cycle people ask me who I support for for various positions. I haven&#8217;t decidided on many of the offices yet but one Gov has one clear choice: Rick Perry. I have met him several times and while we don&#8217;t agree on everything one thing is for sure: he is <a title="Perry endorsed by Texas Alliance for Life" href="http://www.rickperry.org/blog/pro-life-community-solidly-behind-rick-perry" target="_blank">Pro-Life</a> and <a title="Perry endorsed by THSC PAC" href="http://www.rickperry.org/blog/texas-home-schoolers-endorse-rick-perry" target="_blank">Pro Homeschooling</a> and <a title="Rick Perry is Pro-Technology" href="http://scobleizer.com/2009/03/24/is-california-is-setup-for-a-brain-drain/" target="_blank">Pro Technology</a>. Unlike the pretend republicans (cough Key Bailout Hutchison cough) running against him.</p>
<p>Perry is one of the few conservatives who &#8220;gets&#8221; Twitter. He doesn&#8217;t just outsource it to young staffers. He uses it well and other technologies too. If we want to continue to thrive as a state we need leaders who are forward thinking without compromising their principles. I am thankful to have a governor with such a rare and special mix.</p>
<p>Perry is not a perfect candidate but he is by far the best pick. The perfect candidate does not exist so if you hold off for perfection you will never accomplish anything.</p>
<h1><strong>Kay Bailout Hutchison</strong></h1>
<p>Kay Bailout is a Pro-Choice and Big Government Rino (<strong>R</strong>epublican <strong>i</strong>n <strong>N</strong>ame <strong>O</strong>nly).</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://www.washingtonkay.com/tx-kay-vs-dc-kay" target="_blank">She talks like she&#8217;s fiscally conservative</a> but <a href="http://www.washingtonkay.com/bailout" target="_blank">she&#8217;s not</a>.</li>
<li><a href="http://www.washingtonkay.com/youneverknow" target="_blank">She talks like she&#8217;s pro life</a>, but <a href="http://www.washingtonkay.com/blog/what-kay-said-no-2-pro-life-or-pro-abortion-kay" target="_blank">she&#8217;s not</a>.</li>
<li>She brings home as much bacon for Texas as she can. Which might seem nice for Texas but it is bad for America. Pork for us is still pork and pork is bad. I am glad she is running for Governor but only because it will bring her home from Washington.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong>Debra Medina</strong> is another conservative running but she lacks the experience to do a good job. You must be faithful in little before you can be given more and she has yet to serve even as a State Representative. Perry has the experience and is clearly the best person for the job.</p>
<p><strong>I would like to ask you to support Perry.</strong> I&#8217;m not just asking for your vote. <strong>I&#8217;m asking you for $5</strong>. Below is a form where you can contribute to his campaign. If I raise the most money I get to have lunch with him which would be cool. But raising money for him is a win for Texas even if I don&#8217;t win this competition.</p>
<p>Most of you have probably never contributed to a campaign before. This is a great time to start. $5 is not a lot of money but it can add up when we all pitch in.</p>
