Candidate says campaign is All about the future.
The first group of college Democrats in Texas to endorse a candidate in the upcoming United States Senate special election announced yesterday that they are backing candidate John Sharp saying his campaigning over the past year for a balanced budget and economic security shows his commitment to put in the hard work to win the race. John Sharps campaign is all about us said Laura Barry president of the Stephen F. Austin Young Democrats in Nacogdoches.
John has our pledge to work just as hard as he is to give Texas a fresh voice in Washington added Ms. Barry who also serves as the political director of the Texas College Democrats which has 34 chapters across the state. He has the vision to lead us into the future - and we will be there with him every step of the way.
Sharp: Im campaigning full time and will continue to.
The announcement last week by Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison that she wont be resigning her seat before the March 2010 primary election set off a round of speculation about what candidates for her seat would do now.
Said Sharp of the Hutchison announcement I said when I got into this process last December that I would be a candidate when the seat becomes available whether that is in 2012 or anytime before then. Im campaigning full time and will continue to.
TV viewers may have been surprised this weekend to see an Aggie sign in the midst of the cheering section as TCUs Horned Frogs picked up a convincing 55-28 win over Utah in Fort Worth - and came a step closer to a Bowl Championship Series bid.
Seen in the crowd several times during the ESPNs College Gameday broadcast of the gridiron battle was a Sharp Senator banner amidst the Go Frogs! signs.
Exactly when or if a special U.S. Senate election will take place is up in the air.
Sharp nonetheless say he will continue to travel Texas with his message of balancing the federal budget to get our economy back on track improving access to college for middle-class families fixing our health care crisis making us energy independent and raising our standing on the world stage again.
