Connie Crashes In Lamborghini

Connie apparently broke her back--but not bad enough to put her in the hospital. No news on the Lambo. I wish Connie and Mike all the best. And, I hope that she beats Abel Whats-His-Face this November so she will by my representative.

CORPUS CHRISTI — Republican Texas House District 34 candidate Connie Scott and her husband Mike Scott are recovering from injuries sustained in a Friday night car wreck that left Connie with a broken back.

Mike Scott was driving the couple's Lamborghini onto Interstate 37 near Calallen, when a semitrailer began steering into their lane, Connie Scott said.

Scott, who is challenging state Rep. Abel Herrero, D-Robstown, in November, said the trucker apparently did not see their car.

"I yelled, and Mike sped up and tried to miss him and we shot across three lanes and hit the concrete median," she said.

The car slid along the top of the concrete median before landing back on the freeway. Connie Scott was taken to Christus Spohn Hospital-Memorial's trauma unit and later released. Mike Scott, a prominent Republican businessman, refused treatment, but visited a local doctor Monday for X-rays and further testing.

The Scotts were not ticketed. Connie Scott said the injury would not affect her campaign.

Governor Perry: OBAMACARE IS A DISASTER

President Barack Obama's signature on Congress's disastrous health care plan was a disappointment to everyone who values limited government, bipartisanship and quality and affordable health care.

In forcing the bill through, congressional leaders from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on down substituted their own desires and political goals for the good judgment and common sense of the people they represent. Indeed, the more the American people learned about the socialist proposals, the more they rejected them.

Being leader of the largest of the "red states" and having an ego as big as his state, Governor Perry is the defacto leader of the movement to protect the 10th Amendment--Federalism--against the Obama regime.
