No College: Perry 51, Bell 17, Strayhorn 16, Friedman 9

I find this one suprising. Could this be due in part to a lack of political awareness?
Probably. Perry is pretty much better known than the other three candidates taken together. [/hyperbole]
Another important factor is of course that Perry is likely to take a bigger chunk of the Hispanic vote than the White vote.

Okay, I'm new here, so could someone please tell me why an incumbent Republican governor in a GOP state is having so much trouble? Is Bush bringing Perry down, or is it Perry himself?
Your presumption that an incumbent Republican governor should have no problem being re-elected in TX is correct. The fact that he's having troubles at all shows what a particularly bad job he's done.
He's doing badly in polls, but he has no trouble winning.
