For some reason, some people think he's a closet homosexual, do we have any of those?
You may be thinking of a different governor. Ann Richards. Everybody thought she was a raging bulldyke.
I met her once. She was brassy and sassy and bossy, but I didn't get any impression one way or the other about her sexual orientation. King of the Hill presented her as a heterosexual of poor taste, when she had an assignation with Bill Dauterive.
Never heard such a thing about Rick Perry though. He strikes me as very healthy and very hetero.
