| Subject: Funny: Over in Texas, White blasts Perry over 'Ouija board' budget estimates Fri Sep 24, 2010 4:59 am | |
| A massive budget hole Texas faces emerged again in the race for governor Wednesday after Gov. Rick Perry equated early shortfall estimates to "Ouija board" projections.
Democratic challenger Bill White seized on the remark, saying Perry lacked business sense for comparing an estimated $18 billion shortfall from state budget officials to crystal ball readings. Perry said he was referring to methods used in some projections that he says are well higher than others.
"I think it's a little bit premature to be getting your crystal ball out or your Ouija board or whatever these people are using," Perry had said Tuesday at a campaign stop in Midland.
