DescriptionRetired Army general and former presidential candidate Wesley Clark endorsed Democratic governor candidate Bob Gammage at a rally in Houston on Thursday.

"I support Bob Gammage because he's the strongest Democrat in this race and has the most progressive platform for the people of Texas," said Clark, who unsuccessfully sought the 2004 Democratic presidential nomination.

"He is a proven leader who will fight for the needs of all Texans, not the lobbyists, the special interests or the powerful partisan elites. He's grown up with Texas values of independence, integrity and commitment to family and neighbors and he will carry those values into the governor's office. I look forward to helping him in his fight to build a better Texas."

Gammage was the Texas chair of the 2004 "Draft Wesley Clark" effort. Clark said he was returning the favor Thursday.
