10 reasons Texas Republicans should vote for Kinky (I stole this list from a whiney liberal, but I fixed it to take out the whining): (1) Kinky has run for office in the past as a Republican, (2) Kinky voted for Bush/Cheney in 2004, (3) Kinky's interview with Ruminator magazine confirms that he supported Bush's Middle East foreign policy, (4) Kinky's public voting records confirm he was mistaken when he said he voted for Gore in 2000, (5) Kinky hasn't voted for a Democrat in any election at least from 1994 to 2004, (6) Kinky wants to take time during the school day for prayers in schools, (7) Kinky wants to post the Ten Commandments in public school classrooms, (8) Kinky is not obsessed with political correctness, (9) Kinky knows how to deal with illegal aliens from Mexico, and (10) Kinky’s immigration policy of hiring Mexican generals to police our border is a great idea that John McCain has endorsed.

Straight from the Kinkster's mouth (or, website): The campaign delivered 170,258 signatures to the Secretary of State's office on May 11. Of those, 137,154 signatures were considered valid, an 81 percent validity rate. (The state comptroller, who is also running as an independent, submitted 222,514 signatures of which 108,512 were valid, a 49 percent validity rate.)

Oh, but Kinky ended up with more certified signatures than Grandma. So he wins ... nothing.
