Bush Mavericks back Perry
White House stays neutral; its backers do not.
By W. Gardner Selby
AMERICAN-STATESMAN STAFF
Tuesday, August 30, 2005
Young Texas Republicans who gathered more than $2 million for President Bush's re-election last year intend to flex their fundraising muscles in state politics, starting today with an endorsement expected to yield $200,000 or more for Gov. Rick Perry's 2006 re-election campaign.

...


Despite Bush sitting out the Texas fray, so-called Texas Mavericks — not-yet-grizzled, big-dollar Bush fundraisers from the 2004 election — have voted unanimously to support Perry through a Dallas-based political action committee, Maverick PAC of Texas.

...

The political committee came together in April as the first state-level group inspired by 90 national Mavericks, people under 40 whotogetherraised more than $13.5 million for Bush in 2004.
