"Often called a trailblazer, Strayhorn has a resume full of ??firsts??? first woman president of the Austin School Board, and first woman president of the Austin Community College Board of Trustees; first woman mayor of Austin, and the only mayor elected for three successive terms; first woman in history elected Texas Railroad Commissioner??and was re-elected in 1996 with the highest vote total in a statewide contested race."

She carries more weight than kinky right now as she is drawing heavily off the republican crowd who are sick and f'n tired of perrys B.S.

She sounded pretty liberal when she gave her speech.. I was a little afraid to ask about her policy thieory on gun control but was plesently suprised by her response that gun control meant enforcing the laws already on the books not making new ones and that individual liberty is key in TX.

Hard to tell which way she will go. I have her sons phone number (a.k.a. her campaign manager), I could call him and ask if you guys really want to know.
Please do, It would be intresting to know her views on medicinal marijuana laws. Mabye you can convince them!
