RGA Statement on Nomination of Bill White in Texas Democratic Primary

March 2, 2010

Nick Ayers, Executive Director of the Republican Governors Association, today issued the following statement regarding the nomination of Bill White in the Texas gubernatorial primary:

“While we will never take anything for granted, let’s just say we would be a lot more concerned if Bill White were the democratic candidate in New York where his run-up-the-debt fiscal policies, protection of illegal immigrants, and staunch support for President Obama’s leftist agenda might be a bit more palatable. It is going to cost the DGA a lot more than a half-million dollars of trial lawyer and big labor union money to give Bill White’s record the extreme makeover it is in need of.”
