This ought to thrill KBH

Rep. Leo Berman. R-Tyler, says he will announce his candidacy for governor of Texas in July, entering a primary expected to feature incumbent Gov. Hair and the senior U.S. Senator from Texas, Kay Bailey Hutchison.

Berman claims he is not a one-issue candidate but there is clearly only one issue he cares about and that is all those dang illegal immigrants living here. He wants to do something about them, although he doesn't say what except "to enforce the laws we already have on the books."

That means Berman will try to appeal to the same far right of the Republican Party that Gov. Hair is courting, which may help Sen. Hutchison, who is telling folks she will probably announce her candidacy sometime in the fall.
