This announcement was a relative surprise, since most people expected KBH to run. Today at noon, Carole Keeton Strayhorn is going to make 'A MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT' with free hot dogs, free drinks and music.
Given that KBH is out of the race, now it is almost sure that Strayhorn is running against Perry, but then, that's what everybody though KBH was going to do. She could also announce for Lt. Governor.
Today Howard Dean is here in Austin to address the Texas Democratic Party.
If you want to read more about Texas politics, here is a really good blog that I recommend. It is a 'democratic' blog, but they have good news and is writen by UT students. They have tons of links to other blogs, including republicans, if you want to read different perspectives:
