Perry's UT Appointee Dem Donor? Dang!

Longoria: How dare she!
A modest donor by comparison to the rest of the tycoon-laden group, Longoria donated to Chris Bell in 2002 and to Bill Bradley back in 1999. Maybe she’s just a Knicks fan.
According to the most recent data available on www.opensecrets.org, Longoria is the only current regent to give any money to the blue. Is this the end of Gov. Goodhair’s cronyism as we know it? Is diversity of mind suddenly important to running the biggest university system in Texas? Not quite: Centerpoint Energy Inc., of which Longoria has been a board member since 2005 annually donates $10,000 to Texans for Perry.
