State Rep John Davis Has A Teabagger Primary Opponent

And, it's Mary Huls. From her website:

As an ordinary American I have become increasingly concerned with the dramatic expansion of the Federal Government and its increasing involvement in every aspect of our lives. This concern has led me to become active in the 912 Project and Tea Party constitutional grassroots movement.

It has become obvious that the voice of the people has been lost. It is not enough to write letters, send emails and make phone calls. Equally so, our rallies and protests are ignored or demeaned by the mainstream media. Consequently, I choose to exercise my prerogative as an ordinary citizen to enter the political arena to aid in returning government back to the people and having our voices heard once again.

Although I had been focused on problems at the Federal level, I realized how a strong State Government can remedy many of these problems. Austin has many of the same problems of DC; pushing the same progressive agenda that threatens to undermine the constitutional fundamentals needed to ensure our liberty and prosperity. We must be relentless in replacing the career politicians who have failed the citizens of Texas. Grassroots candidates such as I, true to their principles and values, true to the Constitution of the United States, and true to the independent spirit of Texas will be the people's remedy.

She goes on to admit she will be underfunded in comparison to Republican incumbent John Davis (the person she is surely referring to as a "career politician"). She's right, although according to a Texans for Public Justice report on campaign spending that just came out today, Davis only has $26,801 cash on hand. When he has to fundraise, he's proven he can do it as evidenced by the $497,775 he raised in 2008 fighting off John Keeney in the Republican Primary and Democrat Sherrie Matula in the General Election. It's interesting to note that he spent $571,418 combined on both races, and that Keeney and Matula combined spent $408,081 (about $350,000 of that raised and spent by Matula.)

Davis got 64% of the vote in the Primary election and 59% in the General. I rank Hul's chances as slim to none, but she will cause Davis to have to step up and fundraise and run a Primary campaign if he wants to pursue a seventh term.

I'm sure John will have more to say about this later. Wanna bet Hul is referring to John when she plays the victim with, "our rallies and protests are ignored or demeaned by the mainstream media." Perhaps she is referring to this video that was aired on MSNBC's Countdown to the tune of Doe, A Deer?
