Interesting news out of Austin this morning where Tom Schieffer, the brother of CBS’s Bob Schieffer, and a prominent figure in Texas politics will announce his candidacy to be Texas governor. Schieffer was George W. Bush’s ambassador to Australia and he’s sure to have to defend that from Democrats in the primary battle ahead. But his bipartisan credentials might give him some advantage should he get the nomination. Texas hasn’t had a Democratic governor since George W. Bush defeated Ann Richards in 1994.
