Left in the blue is longtime Lubbock political activist and angler for Gov. Perry appointments to government bodies, Ruth Schiermeyer with Kay Bailey Hutchison at her campaign for governor announcement tour event in Lubbock. The deer-in-the-headlights person in the stripes, is experienced politician, big political donor, and former Lubbock mayor Windy Sitton. She also is someone who purposely fished for Perry appointments to government bodies.

What does it say about the integrity of people who will donate funds, and position themselves for appointments, from one officeholder, but after getting positions, support that person's opponent?

Remember, these are not two average citizens who lack an understanding of the politics involved, they are both long time politically involved people who understand it all very well*.

*These folk know all too well how the political process works:

The following is from Opensecrets.org and reflect only Federally reported donations, there is much more to state candidates:
