The Amarillo Globe-News Endorsed Bill White for Governor:

Change often doesn't come easily in a political system that usually rewards incumbency, seniority and a stubborn adherence to conventional wisdom.

Texas, however, is ripe for change at the top of its government ladder.

Bill White, thus, has earned the chance to govern a state in flux.

White, the Democratic nominee for governor, has more than earned his spurs as a public official.

The Austin-American Statesman endorses Bill White for Governor

If you're driven by campaign-trail zingers, White might not be your candidate. But a longer listen produces the inescapable conclusion that White is a thoughtful, experienced, unifying leader — just what Texas needs now. That's why we are endorsing him to become Texas' 48th governor.

There's much to appreciate about White, both in his past public service and the direction he plans to lead our state if voters oust GOP Gov. Rick Perry on Nov. 2.
