Reports are coming in that Gov. Rick Perry's re-election campaign kickoff in Texas had a less than auspicious beginning. Quoting Peggy Fikacblogging at mysanantonio.com:
Gov. Rick Perry's much-touted "Talkin' Texas" online campaign event included
eyebrow-raising proposals such as a two-thirds vote of the Legislature and voter approval before state taxes can be raised.The live Web cast also was unavailable to me and lots of other people who couldn't log in, showing that if you live by the Internet, you can be attacked on the Internet. That's what the campaign says happened.
"We were definitely hacked. We'll have a statement shortly. The whole site is down," said Perry spokesman Mark Miner.
