Kinky for Governor - Why the hell not!
What an interesting year we Texans have in store. Looks like Kinky Friedman is going to make it on to the ballot for Texas Governor.
I hope his campaign really stikes a chord with people that not only believe in his message but also those that are disheartened with politics as usual. I'd like to see an independent candidate have a fighting chance for a change. With quotes like this he's bound to get press but it will be interesting to see if the public actually believes in the message instead of just considering it a novelty act:
On gay marriage:"I support gay marriage. I believe they have a right to be as miserable as the rest of us"
