Patrick Rose Rumors

By Vince Leibowitz  on May 25, 2007 in 80th Legislature      

Patrick Rose, who this week announced he was no longer a Craddick supporter, is subject of a fairly interesting rumor de jour. We’ve confirmed this from several reliable sources who tell us it’s correct.

Rep. Rose reportedly had dinner last week with some Texans for Lawsuit Reform folks. They told him he should consider a 2010 run for Texas Attorney General.

Then, this week, he disavowed Craddick, who is heavily supported by TLR.
Yesterday, Rose reportedly tried to rejoin the Speaker’s leadership team. He reportedly sought out Rep. Kino Flores for help reparing the broken relationship. The effort was reportedly rejected by Craddick.

We’ve now heard that, this morning, Rose called Russ Tidewll of the Texas Trial Lawyers Association with the announcement he’s ready to play ball with them.

Fun, fun, fun.

[Ed. Note: Capitol Annex sent an email to a Rose staffer, but it bounced back to us. If Rep. Rose has any comments on this, please email them to vince.leibowitz-at-gmail.com and we'll gladly post them.]

    links from Technoratiin his opening paragraph, essentially gave the reason that would explain any arguments that a Patrick Rose statewide run in 2010 is completely out of the question. In May, though; rumors were abound about Mr. Rose and were reported effectively byCaptiol Annex: Patrick Rose, who this week announced he was no longer a Craddick supporter, is subject of a fairly interesting rumor de jour.
