I think the answer to that one is relatively obvious.

I think Texas amended it's election laws to allow this, for the Benefit of Democrat LLyoyd Bensten in the 1988 campaign. So, naturaally, other candidiates now will take advantage of the ability to run two campaigns.

This whole article sounds like one big hit piece to me. The author attempts to marginalize him the entire article and then ends with the....

"He claims no master strategy.

"All I know is I have to do my best," he said. "I have the advantage of low expectations by the public." "

Hardly any of his actual positions on issues were brought out in this article, but they sure did try to make sure everyone knew of his alleged racial comments. Now, we all know that he didn't write them, but I wonder how many will look for the truth?
