George P. Bush announces run for Texas attorney general, challenging GOP incumbent Ken Paxton

Texas Land Commissioner George P. Bush, the grandson and nephew of the two Bush presidents, announced Wednesday that he'll challenge incumbent Texas Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton. 

Bush, 45 years of age, is the last member of his family still in public office, and his candidacy will test the political strength of the Bush dynasty. He kicked off his campaign with sharp attacks against Paxton for his legal troubles. Paxton has served several years in office under indictment over securities fraud and was recently accused of bribery by his former top aides. He has denied wrongdoing in both cases.  "Enough is enough, Ken," Bush told a crowd of supporters in Austin. "You've brought too much scandal and too little integrity to this office. As a career politician for 20 years, it's time for you to go. We need an attorney general that's above reproach, not under criminal indictment for securities fraud and not under FBI investigation for bribery and corruption."
