The complete failure of Gov. Hair

Governor Rick Perry will do anything in his power to distract the general public from the fact that his reign as Governor is a complete failure. Governor Perry is no longer serving as Governor -- he is running a permanent campaign for re-election and, eventually, for a place on the 2012 ticket. In the mean time, Texans continue to suffer under a man who is making George W. Bush look like George Washington.

So begins this assessment of Gov. Hair which goes on to list four specific areas in which he has exerted either abysmal or no leadership at all. The assessment was written by Philip Martin, who was born in Austin, received his master's from the University of Texas writing his thesis on Bob Dylan's great album Highway 61 Revisited and even has his own Dylan Web site. He also predicts (at least the way I read it) that Gov. Hair will defeat Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchinson in the Republican gubernatorial primary by appealing the party's far right wing, which is a fairly good sized wing here in Texas.
