Meet The Candidates At Kraitchar House - February 5, 2008The historic Kraitchar House in Caldwell was
the setting for our first
"Meet The Candidates" in 2008. Local and regional candidates
were
pleantiful as were the questions and opinions. The warm
weather
made punch much more popular than the advertised "coffee" and the eats
were good enough to convert all but the most contentious of Democrats.
Overall, it was an excellent opportunity for
one-on-one's
with Republican
candidates. We have a full page of picture
coverage right here.U.S. Senator Cornyn gives Legislative Update - January 15, 2008John Cornyn, U.S. Senator provided a legislative update hosted by the Brazos Valley Republicans.Executive Committee Meeting - January 8, 2008The Executive Committee

of Burleson County's
2007 Fall Fest kicked off the 2008 election
cycle with politics, fun, learning, food, and a presidential straw
poll. Jerry Patterson, Texas Land Commissioner, was our
featured
speaker and aptly demonstrated that Texas history, even that of the
Public Land Office, is far more entertaining that Saturday Night Live! It was also an excellent night for "buttonholing" your favorite politician with local, state, and federal officals represented. The presidential straw poll had some surprising results! Check out our 2007 Fall Fest web page for full picture coverage. Burleson County Republicans Featured at GOP.com From October of 2006
to November 2007 (over a year!) the Republican National
Committee's web sites, RNC.org and GOP.com [saved here as
a
128KByte *.pdf]
featured a photo of
our 2003 Crawfish Boil as the lead-in to their GOP.com
Photo Galleries.
It's small, but it was the picture on the Republican Party's national
home pages,
and it's rewarding that they think our crawfish boil is representative
of "All across America,
candidates, state parties, and grassroots activists are hard at work
growing our party." Heck, we were just having
fun! And, we can even let you see the full
size version and another with Marsha
Stein, our Chair and chief crawfish
boiler. |
