Our "Democratic candidate" for Governor of Texas, Kinky Friedman, is apparently still on his media tour and not actually campaigning for Gov. We spotted an event he is attending in Dallas on Sunday October 25 where he will show his documentary about his last failed gubernatorial run. "Along Came Kinky-Texas Jewboy for Governor" will be shown at the Studio Movie Grill on Central Expwy at 1pm for 10 bucks that day. He'll also be in Las Colinas the previous evening with Little Jewford by his side.
It would be nice if he is serious about running as a Democrat in 2010, that he actually campaign this year and stop living in 2006. The only events on his campaign site continue to be book signings, cigar selling, band playing, and now a movie. Toss in an out of state tour, and there you have the campaign.
Kinky makes a mighty fine peach salsa, but we're not interested in much of his other wares. It is time to stop treating Texas as more of a joke than Rick Perry already makes it. Run for real, or go back to obscurity where you belong, Kinkster.

He is a frickin joke.
If Kinky actually ran, I would lose all hop of ever seeing my beloved Texas regain her rightful place in the world. Why media types even still give him ink is beyond me.
