He also toured the Anheuser-Busch brewery in Houston. I’m not sure that Ye Olde Political Photo-Op is the best use of a candidate’s time in the 21st century.
Elizabeth Ames Jones delivered the keynote address at the National Energy Services Association meeting in Bastrop. Which is probably good use of her time as Railroad Commissioner, but not effective at campaigning. With Cruz and Leppert campaigning full-time (and Dewhurst getting there), it’s hard to treat Jones as a serious candidate when she seems to put more effort into her day job, especially since she was already trailing so badly in buzz and fundraising.
There will be a Senate Candidate forum in Tarrant County Tuesday night starting 6:15 PM at the Richland Hills United Methodist Church at 7301 Glenview Drive, Richland Hills, 76180. Attending will be Cruz, Leppert, Jones, Glenn Addison, Andrew Castanuela, Curt Cleaver, and Lela Pittenger. Once again, Lt. Gov. Chupacabra will be nowhere to be seen.
And speaking of people avoiding the limelight, this week Ricardo Sanchez…did absolutely nothing.
