Huge congratulations go out today to Chris Bell and all the folks working on his campaign for Texas Governor. Chris won a big victory yesterday in the Democratic primary, winning the nomination with 64% of the vote.

Mike and I had the pleasure of working with the Bell campaign for about six months last year, helping them with their website and blog and even doing a few podcasts. Chris and his team are great people - funny, smart as hell and really interested in making things better in Texas. Ok, ok, and I may have just the slightest crush on Chris.

If you know anyone in Texas, do me a favor and make sure they know about Chris and the campaign. He definitely has a shot in November against current Governor Rick Perry, but he can use all the help he can get. In fact, if you have a little spare change to send Chris’s way that would be great too.
