    Seriously?

    I could handle W and Perry and Cornyn and Kay Bailey, but if freaking Craig James ever represents my birth state in any position, I will be quite angry.

    Do the right thing people. Just say no to Craig James.

    If you're referring to the Mike Leach situation I think that has more to do with either his wife or the fact that he's a media personality and it would have gotten out and commented on in such a way that his parenting would have been scrutinized. I honestly think someone who played pro ball and championship high school/college football in Texas in the freaking late '70s/early '80s got a lot worse treatment than his kid; and if Craig was a frustrated Archie Manning type instead of a multimillionaire sportscaster he would've told the boy to suck it the hell up.

    I don't mind him but why the heck doesn't anyone run for city council, the school board or a state rep anymore? I think there's just a bunch of huckster consultants ginning up campaign contributions for primary ads and press releases that should never get made.

    You can do less damage in the U.S. Senate than you can do on a school board.

    He'll secure the closeted father and son demographic. But the five dead hookers scandal will be his undoing.

    Enough with the rumors that Craig James killed five hookers while at SMU. I've never, ever seen a shred of evidence that Craig James killed five hookers while at SMU. And I think it's fair to say that if a former professional athlete and television personality like Craig James killed five hookers while at SMU, we would have heard about it by now. It's just sad that in today's enlightened society, completely unfounded rumors (such as the one about how Craig James killed five hookers while at SMU) can be passed off as fact.

    Again, there's no truth to the rumor that Craig James killed five hookers while at SMU.

    Ten dead hookers were found buried on Long Island this year. It's a real short drive from Bristol, Connecticut to Long Island, NY. Just saying.

    Since when do political dilettantes start with the Senate. Shouldn't you at least have some parliamentary experience?

    Though in recognition of my my own hypocrisy, because I usually can't stand hypocrisy, I'll chide myself.

    (but he is a pretty good Senator)

    you are either weird, related ,or gay for him otherwise I just dont get the obvious butthurt over it.

    you seem pretty concerned about this considering this IS the internet ,and an internet message board no less.

    Sounds like you better get your red crayon out and get to work since it's coming up all over the internet on a f -ton of sites... umm oops too late.

    in fact if you type in 'craig ja' on google it's already auto completing 'craig james killed 5 hookers'

    What is your allegiance to craig james? are you sure you don't want to remind us again that you really think there's no truth to it? maybe if you post it again the key word for craig james is 'not a killer of hookers' might move from page 5000 to page 4999...

    Most of which can be fixed with a library card before your kids' 5th birthday, a Fraction Munchers shell, an SAT practice book and adult supervision between 3:00 and 7:00 pm.

    More than anything this probably just shows that primaries for the most part are a waste of time and money. It's also possible that TexasDem wants to save money and resources for Obama 2012.

    Libertarians could certainly make a run of things down here, go the far right on fiscal spending and just shut the holy hell up on social issues.

    I have hard time believing some big city Mayor, Congressman or State Rep isn't going to come in donkeyside once the RNC decides on a nominee.
