I have heard that a huge percentage of Texas's jobs are minimum wage positions. That is not going to keep a family of four taken care of in rent, food, transportation, and all the necessary expenses.

Once again, if around 90% of African-Americans, most Hispanics, most people under 30, students, and adult white Democrats have a choice of Rick Perry or Mitt Romney WITH a VP candidate such as Sarah Palin, Marco Rubio, Michelle Bachmann or some other extremist, there is NO WAY that they are NOT going to vote for the Democrat ticket.
