Our Revels (for) Now Are Ended

November 6, 2010 News

My thanks to all of you for your commitment to my campaign. I am truly honored to have had it. As I am sure you know, on Election Day I received an amazing 25,856 votes. I say amazing because, as my lovely wife Christine posited, “We don’t know 25,000 people!” I agreed. Unfortunately, my opponent, [...]

October 29, 2010 News

We discussed the Texas budget shortfall and unfunded liability, as well as immigration issues. To listen in click here. I come on about 45 minutes in.

We Got One! (and oh, yeah early voting begins today)

I just saw my neighbor out in the driveway and she informed me that I am, in fact, on the ballot and that she voted for me. I was reminded of this scene from Ghostbusters.   Let this serve as a reminder that early voting in Texas has begun. Early voting is this Monday, October [...]

Really Senator Shapiro?

October 16, 2010 News

This week on her monoblog (I call it this because it does not allow comments), my competitor, Senator Florence Shapiro writes: As your Senator, my philosophy has always been—and will continue to be—that the role of government should be a limited one. Government cannot and should not be allowed to continually expand its role. Really, [...]

On Traffic Lights

October 13, 2010 On Big Government

This video brings together three ideas about which I have posted: driverless car technology, red light cameras and “politician’s logic,” AKA the law of unintended consequences. The very idea that we need traffic lights is just accepted without further thought. Please note I am not suggesting that we eliminate all traffic lights, just that would [...]

On a Scourge Facing the Youth of Texas

October 11, 2010 News

The death toll has already begun. One teenage victim has already died this year. I am truly saddened by this and my heart goes out to his friends and family. While K2, a synthetic form of marijuana, has caused some 250 hospitalizations in Texas this year, the carnage from this scourge is far worse: averaging [...]

From a Coffee Klatch for Kless

October 11, 2010 News

Last Thursday, Dale and Donna Heidenreich of Plano, were kind enough to open their home to me for a Coffee Klatch for Kless (and an evening wine and cheese). Over a dozen friends and neighbors were in attendance and the message of my campaign we well received. If you are interested in holding one of [...]

Clearly My Problem Is Name Recognition

October 2, 2010 News

Funny story and true story. Last month at a Labor Day rally in Frisco, this attractive young woman approached my table asking, “Are you Sean Kless’ Dad?” “That’s me,” I said. It turns out Christy is a teacher at my son’s preschool. My son Sean has better name recognition than I do. So, please if [...]

OK, so that is not exactly what she meant!

September 30, 2010 News

During the Allen Area Patriots Candidate Forum last Thursday, my opponent, Senator Florence Shapiro, was being facetious in speculating on what Texas might look like if Libertarians were in power. The response, however, was not what she planned. I would love for FoxNews to do one of their “body language” assessments. Thanks for Bryan McAninch, [...]
