GOP doesn't think Perry is worth a nickel.
MySA.com: Metro | State: "Some longtime Texas Republicans are expressing displeasure with Gov. Rick Perry by literally giving him their 2 cents' worth in campaign contributions.
More than a dozen have opened their checkbooks to make contributions of less than a nickel and in some cases, only a penny.
They want their small donations to make a big statement.
'The whole country is waking up. I really think there's going to be a revolution because people are sick and tired,' Mary Bean of Rosenberg said. 'People are sick and tired of all this bickering and not getting a damn thing done.'
Perry did push a school funding reform bill through the Legislature last month that kept the Texas Supreme Court from closing public schools after June 1. But some of Perry's fellow Republicans are miffed he supported a new business tax to make it happen.
'I was really mad that he started this new business tax,' Bean said after sending a contribution check for 1 cent.
A lifelong Republican, Bean said she'll vote for maverick independent Kinky Friedman."
