Ken Molberg endorses . . .
GAMMAGE FOR GOVERNOR

Democrats have a chance on March 7 to help put a grownup back in charge of the governor’s mansion. How? By voting for Bob Gammage...Gammage offers a distinguished background of responsible leadership and experience coupled with a forward-looking vision for the future of our state that is in marked contrast to his rivals of March and November.

I’ve known Bob Gammage for three decades, maybe more. We have not always been on the same side of every political battle, but I can tell you this for certain: he has the intellectual wherewithal, political skills, dedication and stamina to serve the people well, and he will bring those qualities to bear on the important but neglected issues that face us: school finance and property tax reform, ethics, health care, open government, working conditions, and the environment, to name but a few.
...
Bob Gammage has called on Texas Democrats to return to their progressive roots, with a focus on educational excellence, affordable prescription drugs, an increase in the state minimum wage, and strengthening campaign finance laws to subdue the “politician for sale” odor that flares our political nostrils. Gammage, a “Dirty Thirty” veteran in the fight against corrupt political machines of the past, offers a true alternative to the mess this state has become under Republican rule—a state now run by the powerful special interests as much as Washington, D.C. is run by the Jack Abramoffs and their ilk. Straight talk, integrity and solid proposals, not hidden agendas or higher ambitions, are Gammage’s stock-in-trade.
...
Ken Molberg is the former Democratic Chairman of Dallas County and longtime Texas Democratic Party leader.

Maybe the third time someone posts this everyone will read it.
