SAN ANTONIO - Texas musician and author Kinky Friedman plans to formally launch his candidacy for Texas governor on live television in February, he announced Wednesday.
Friedman said he expects to appear outside the Alamo on MSNBC's "Imus in the Morning" on Feb. 3 or 4. He plans to be joined by the band "Asleep at the Wheel" and a group of child fiddlers.
Friedman told the San Antonio Express-News in Wednesday's online edition that he chose the program because Imus is an old friend and "a lot of geezers watch his show in Texas."

As Governor, Kinky, or “the Kinkster”, would:
• Legalize casino gambling to fund education
• Abolish political correctness “We didn't get to be the Lone Star state by being politically correct”
• Take a good look at death row. “We need to make sure that we're not putting innocent people to death, which I believe we are”
• Outlaw the de-clawing of cats
• Bring young people into his administration. “Young people are less corrupt. They are the future of Texas ; it's theirs to win or lose.”

Some of the most honest stuff I've heard so far.
Except for the cats, those things can get nasty.
