Perry to help raise money for Keel
Gov. Rick Perry, who expects to be campaigning for Texas Republicans this fall, is headlining a fund-raiser for Donna Keel, who’s opposing Rep. Valinda Bolton, D-Austin.
Keel is making her first race to reclaim the District 47 House seat once held by her brother-in-law, Terry Keel.
The fund-raiser is a luncheon affair at The Austin Club on May 20.
It won’t be the last for Perry, who says he’s a candidate for re-election in 2010.
“We’ve probably got a dozen invitations” to headline fund-raisers, said Robert Black, Perry’s press secretary. “He always says, in campaign season, he’ll be working for his team.”

Texas needs another Perry “team member” like we need another lobbyist! I can not imagine voters being so blinded by the gel in Perry’s good hair that they could not see the error in the way of voting for another Perry team member. This has to be the worst governor since “MA” Fergusson the once infamous Texas governor that was as crooked as a snake.
