Governors from Texas

Texas capI was born in Texas.  I grew up in Texas.  I went to college and medical school at the University of Texas.  I still feel a twinge of undeserved pride when I say I'm from Texas.

But ...

Are there really people in this country who want another redneck, bible toting, gun slinging governor from Texas to be the next President of the United States?

What part of the last decade have we forgotten?
