    GAWD NO! Not Matthew McConaughey! My wife already oogles over him enough when he's in those sh*tty romantic comedies. The last thing I need is to see him on the news every night...

    There has been talk for years that Nolan Ryan would run for some state office (like Railroad Commission or something), but he's never gone through with it.

    I can't imagine he'd be any worse as a Governor than the people we've been electing to the job.

    First choice...Gene Kranz from NASA and Mission Control cause he's majorly outspoken and a hard ass who gets the job done. My father worked with him and I've run into him. The man has a commanding presence and is loud.

    Second choice....Madeleine Stowe or her husband Brian Benben.

    Third choice would be Sandra Bullock.

    :D

    First, before I vote, I want to know what a Governer is.... I'll vote for a Governor instead.

    I think we should have a spelling bee around here.

    My vote goes to Lyle Lovett. If he can talk Julia Roberts into marrying him he can talk anyone into anything.

    Stone Cold would be hilarious! I wouldn't actually vote for him unless there is just no one else good running, but he'd be so funny in a position like that.
