The Machine’s Choices in HD-52

Here’s the latest list for what the AAS terms Krusee wannabes?

Only one has filed the paperwork to raise money to explore making a race: Bryan Daniel, originally from Jarrell, who headed up the state office of rural development for the United States Department of Agriculture.

Others being mentioned are former County Commissioner Frankie Limmer, lobbyist Randy Lee, former Round Rock Council member Gary Coe, Round Rock Council Member Joe Clifford, and Larry Gonzales, chief of staff to Rep. John Otto of Dayton.

I’m not sure any of these potential machine candidates actually wants to be like Mike - retiring in shame. Looks like Round Rock Mayor Nyle Maxwell has passed on this race. The ethically challenged Frankie Limmer truly is a Krusee wannabe. Gary Coe lost the Precinct 4 County Commissioner run off to Ron Morrison in 2006. The rest are vurtual unknowns to most outside the WCGOP machine.
