Wouldn't it be nice to take Governor Goodhair down. AP:

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) - Willie Nelson opened up his central Texas ranch and private golf course Sunday, raising an estimated $170,000 for his friend Kinky Friedman, an independent candidate for Texas governor.

Friedman, an author and entertainer, will need up to $5 million just to get his name on next year's ballot, managers say.

So, $170,000 is just seed money. Not unserious, though.
