Default Heads up Texans!

Lela Pittenger for U.S. Senate. http://lelaforsenate.com/
I had the pleasure of spending a couple of hours with this lady last night, at a Tea Party meeting, and I must say I was very impressed. Not only by what she had to say as a quest speaker at a Tea Party meeting, but in what she had to say in one on one coversation after the meeting. She is considered to be a long shot in TX. She doesn't have deep pockets, and is struggling to keep up with the big $$ folks who are running. She is a Christian, and I was impressed with her story, and knowledge of God's Word. She understands that the job ahead of us is not going to be easy, and will take some time, and effort, to turn this Nation around. I'm not suggesting that you vote for her, but at least learn all you can about her. I think you will be as impressed as I am!

sadly, people like her simply don't get elected these days, as evidenced by Mike Huckabee.

Yea its sad because these are the people we need to turn things around. People just like you and me. If she stands for what is right, we should pray for her and help her win. I am sick of big money dictating!

I volunteered to help with her campaign. I don't have much money, but will donate my time.

Thanks for the head's up. The website definitely says all the right things. I'll keep an eye out for her in the primary. Don't think she can defeat the Cornyn machine, but the Hutchinson seat is coming open.

Thumbs up Re: Heads up Texans!

Thanks. She seems to be a breath of fresh air in the political spectrum. May have to get behind her candidacy.
