Wayne Richard Endorses Fellow Conservative Van Taylor in TX-66 Runoff

Hello Everyone,

From the bottom of Susan and my hearts we thank you for all the love and support you all have shared with us these past eight months. I know many of you are deeply disappointed in the final outcome in the first phase of the Republican Primary. Susan and I share your emotions and wonder what is next for our family. We trust God will show us the way as he will guide us in due time.

Our journey has always been motivated by that which we believed God had planned for us and as we reflect on all the events that have transpired we are confident we fulfilled his wishes. The friendships we have developed with so many people are just one of the many blessings that have enriched our lives as a result of the campaign.

Each of you played such a major role in changing politics as usual here in Collin County and especially in Plano. We went up against a 19 year RINO who was thought to be all too powerful to fail. We proved them wrong. The seeds of grassroots activism have been planted and the seeds are strong and growing! We must now cast our eyes upon the future and continue our fight to bring conservative principles back in to our government.

With this commitment in mind, I ask each of you as supporters of the StandWithWayne campaign to redirect your efforts to supporting my former opponent, Van Taylor.

Although he and I fought a hard battle in the primary, we always practiced civility and a level of professionalism throughout the process. As you know, my heart has always been focused on advancing the conservative movement. Now we must ensure the best candidate is elected to office. I submit to each of you that Van is the best candidate in the runoff in House District 66 to ensure our conservative principles are represented in Austin. It is important to note my personal endorsement of Van is in no way motivated by the unfortunate actions taken by Mabrie Jackson a few weeks ago attacking my character as a Christian man and a candidate. My motivation is not generated out of spite or out of revenge. I offer this endorsement because I believe Van will represent our conservative values and principles in the Texas House of Representatives.

I ask each of you to continue the fight and commit your passion to help Van get past what I expect to be a very difficult and dirty battle. He will need our support and prayers as he moves forward to victory. He is now the lead conservative voice for our district and we must step forward to ensure his victory! This is what we must do to further our cause and continue the movement to take back our state and country.

Again, thank you for everything you have done for Susan and me. We are better for knowing each of you.

God Bless Texas and America,

Wayne

Political Courage:

"GOD willing the electorate in District 66 will win this battle in 2010 and when we do we will send a unambiguous message across the great state of Texas. A declaration which will be heard all the way down in Austin; that the citizens still determine who represents us, that we are indeed a government of the people and by the people."
