I've made my decision.

( My analysis of the Texas GOP Governor Primary Race Candidates )

After much consideration, I've also decided to be a delegate again this year for the GOP precint, district, and state conventions. I still don't like to call myself a Republican, but the Texas GOP has done exceptionally well as opposed to the national party.

Ironically, I'm worried about Tea Partiers and 9.12ers (which I am both) attempting to cut people like Ter and I who have been involved for years. The way it works is that you stay after the primary election polls have closed for your precinct meeting. You come up with resolutions you want added to the GOP platform, and then elect a set amount of representatives to send to District and State.

In our precint, the 9.12 group is strong, which is great. Of course, Ter and I work nights, so we've never attended the meetings. I worry that they'll try something to take over the precint meeting and have themselves elected to go to District and State.

Truthfully, I understand wanting to do something now and greatly, greatly appreciate it, but for those of us who have been consistent in the years prior, where were they then?

In any case, I suppose I'd better be prepared for a fight. Prepare for the worst and hope for the best! We've always had extra seats available in the past, so hopefully it won't be an issue.

Anyway. That there's your dose of Texan politics! Which don't apply to most of you anyway! XD
