Description | NEW YORK – For all the unity and talk about re-electing the president, there is an elephant in the room at the Texas GOP delegate meetings – the 2006 governor's race.
Subtle jockeying to be the Lone Star in Texas is being played out this week between possible contender U.S. Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison, who is a co-chair of the Republican National Convention, and Gov. Rick Perry, who is heading the state delegation. Meanwhile, potential candidate Comptroller Carole Keeton Strayhorn is a presence, even though she will miss the convention to remain at her desk in Austin.
"It's not even attempting to be a well-kept secret," delegate Norm Mason of Sugar Land said, particularly about the squabbling between Mrs. Strayhorn and Mr. Perry, whose low approval ratings have attracted possible challengers from his own party.
