LUBBOCK \u2013 Candidate for the Republican nomination for Texas governor Debra Medina, in a Thursday appearance on radio show Pratt on Texas, refused to commit to support the Republican nominee for Texas governor if she is not the Party\u2019s nominee. Medina hinted at there being other candidates on the November ballot she might support.<\/p>\n
Pratt on Texas host Robert Pratt asked Ms. Medina, the former Wharton County chairwoman, “If you run through this election and are not the nominee of the Republican Party, will you wholeheartedly endorse and support the Party\u2019s nominee or is there some threat of some type of outside movement there?”<\/p>\n
“I think it\u2019s premature to be talking about that,” replied Medina.<\/p>\n
“So in other words, even though we do know that the nominee will be one of three people, Rick Perry, Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, or yourself, you\u2019re not willing to go on the record saying that if you\u2019re not the nominee you would support the Party\u2019s ticket?,” Pratt asked.<\/p>\n
“Absolutely not,” Medina said.<\/p>\n
“Surely you understand that there may be other candidates besides a Republican and a Democrat on the ballot come next November,” she added later.<\/p>\n
“Ms. Medina wants Republican voters to trust her with their vote but, she isn\u2019t willing to trust the judgment of those same voters if they should nominate someone other than her,” Pratt told his audience after the interview.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
There may well be other candidates on the ballot in November other than Republican or Democrat Deb and I suggest you throw your considerable political capital in their support.<\/p>\n
Feel free to pick any of these parties:<\/p>\n
Truthers Rock Texas Party
\nDumb as a Stump Party
\nAnti Black Helicopter Coalition
\nJust Want to Smoke Dope and Get a Check Party
\nImbeciles R Us Party<\/p>\n
