Thread Name: A 'Singing Governor' for Texas?
Subject: A 'Singing Governor' for Texas?
OK, I know maybe this thread should be in B(reeze) S(hooting), but it IS about a musician -- and a "folk singer" of sorts: Kinky Friedman.
If you watched 60 Minutes tonight, you know Kinky is running for Governor of Texas as an independent.
I figure if Jimmie Davis could be the "singing Governor" of Louisiana -- two non-consecutive terms -- then why not Kinky as one for Texas?
I can just imagine the innauguration ball, with songs like "They Ain't Making Jews Like Jesus Any More," "Asshole from El Paso," and "Ride 'Em, Jew Boy" as theme songs. LOL
