Alvarado Redux?

We got word today that 2006 Democratic nominee for Lt. Governor is considering another run in 2010. Maria Luisa Alvarado of San Antonio was a complete unknown when running in 2006 running on past military experience. If she does choose to run again in 2010, she will most likely face at least one other candidate in the primary. Marc Katz of Austin and of Katz's Deli fame is also considering a run the nomination. We *might* consider voting for him if he opens a Katz's in DFW. "Katz's never kloses" and it is yummy.
 
Whomever wins, faces the worst possible matchup in the state against current Lt. Governor David Dewhurst in the general election. Dewhurst has been mentioned as possible US Senate candidate, but as of right now he is running for reelection for his job. It doesn't hurt to be sitting on millions of dollars in donations and his own money.
 
We applaud any Democrat willing to take that beating.

Alvarado has no idea of what she is doing or what she would do if she won.

This is not a frickin game.

If I run again in 2010, I will still be a political unknown. I am OK with that but I am surprised that I have not been approached by the status quo to insist that I not run in 2010. As for Katz, I've never had any complaints about my home cooking, can I employ my culinary skills to get your vote Texas Cloverleaf? Of course, that offer is only valid at which time there is a formal announcement about another run. This is not that occasion.
