Democrat nominees DUCK Obama in Texas. Rep. Govenor Perry meets him at airport--LOL.

[oreo]

It shows how bad it is for Barack Obama--when the ONLY politician to great him at the airport is Republican govenor Rick Perry--

many Democrats are finding their schedules too full to make it to Obama's events. Perry and other Republicans, meanwhile, are whooping it up. Perry will grab a few minutes with the president when he arrives in Austin. And Bill Flores, the Republican challenging U.S. Rep. Chet Edwards, D-Waco, jeeringly offered to pay for a town hall featuring the two Democrats, just to get them on stage together. But Edwards won't be there, and neither will White.

Perry showed the President some respect. That was a cool thing to do. Shame on the Dems though.

Probably not--look what a hug did for Republican Crist in Florida--

But, let's fact it--out of respect one would think that Democrat White who is running for govenor would show up.

Here Obama goes to a campaign rally for democrats and none of the democrats in Texas running for office--show up--

Next--they'll be paying Obama not to campaign for them, or mention their names.

Reminds me of Bush in 08. Nobody wanted him to campaign for them either.

Yep. Bush and Ol'BO. Two peas in a pod. LOL

That's because they are on the same team.
Perry will be your pResident, some day.
He's already been sElected.

Yea this one is pretty embarrassing for the President and Democrats. As soon as his plane touched down the Democrats scurried away like cockroaches. Pretty hilarious stuff. Perry did show some class on this one. Democrats could learn something from him.

People see Obama they see a $1.5 trillion deficit and 10% unemployment. Hell that's what people see when they think of any Democrat

Well republicans are still trying to avoid talking about or taking credit for W across the country. So it's hilarious that you would try to make something out of some dems avoiding obama in one fo the most conservative states. LOL This is nothing new and politicians often try to avoid being connected to someone that they think might be unfavorable in their state and district. It's called politics and you are on a politics board, so don't you think it's time that you learned something about what you are trying to discuss??

"So why haven't we heard more about Texas, one of the most important economy's in America? Well, it's because it doesn't fit the script. It's a pro-business, lean-spending, no-union state. You can't fit it into a nice storyline, so it's ignored.

This is the sleeper state budget crisis of 2011, and it will be praised for doing great, right up until the moment before it blows up."
