(TX-32) The Congressional race is getting crowded...
Will Pryor, a former First Assistant Attorney General in Texas and one of the D Magazine "Best Lawyers in Dallas" for 2003, is running in the Democratic primary against Pauline Dixon as both seek to challenge Pete Sessions for his seat in the House:

3. "I'll be sure and call you, so that you can have a hot meal"
So, does this fool really think he's going to convince Ken or anyone else with that kind of nonsense? Looks like Nazi-style bully-boy tactics to me. Geez.

4. Check out his personal profile
"Married to Professor of Law and University Distinguished Teaching Professor Ellen Smith Pryor of the Dedman School of Law at SMU; proud father of teenagers Lindsey and Emily; Elder of the Westminster Presbyterian Church and Trustee of the Winston School of Dallas"

That should play well in the Northern sector of the district, and we really, really those numbers to win. All our GOTV efforts down here won't carry it without N. Dallas. We just don't have the numbers.

6. Let's see how the primary plays out
I'll support whomever wins the CD-32 Democratic nomination to run against Sessions. Until then, I'm committed to Pauline Dixon, myself.

A primary debate might be fun and informative, though.

7. I'm looking forward to helping whoever it is...
BEAT PETE in 2006!!

By the way, Pete Sessions still hasn't taken down his crappy sign from 2004. Here's what's left of it:



It's in Oak Cliff, so the sign will probably rot and fall down on its own before Sessions gets up the nerve to come here and take it down.
