Former Lieutenant Governor under [[George W. Bush]] and now Governor, [[Rick Perry]] is running for an unprecedented third consecutive term. Perry has alienated some citizens with his support of the Trans-Texas Corridor and social conservatives with an executive order mandating vaccine for school girls. Texas' Senior Senator [[Kay Bailey Hutchison]] is challenging Perry in a primary. Although likable with a large constituency, she has taken some unpopular positions when voting for [[TARP]]. Larry Kilgore, who advocates that Texas succeeds from the union, is running. Democratic candidates include [[Kinky Friedman]], who is running in a second attempt for the governorship, and former State Representative Tom Schieffer.
