As I start another round of updates on the candidates running to replace Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, I figured I’d start with someone I haven’t had the opportunity to interview yet. I was at his campaign announcment in Austin and watched as a couple of reporters tried to get under his skin about his days at SMU but didn’t get an opportunity to talk to him. And then I watched him debate that night and thought that he did okay. Perhaps soon I’ll have the chance to sit down and chat.
Until then, you should at least know that his campaign is up and running. I received this press release yesterday:
Craig James State of the Union Press Release
And this morning, the campaign released another video:
A late start for the campaign but I’m hearing from a couple of the candidates that their internal polls already show him on the radar, which is pretty remarkable if you think about it.
Maybe taking it to real street ain’t such a bad idea.
