1. Apparently folks in your neck of the woods like getting shafted

Jeez, these numbers are just abysmal, and for the state-wide offices, the rest of the state is no help whatsoever. Sorry you have to put up with that pig-eyed sack of manure Joe Barton for yet another two years.

2. Hank...

I'm gonna start drinking/crying again...

I like Bill White but Hank Gilbert's loss hurts most of all.

[ceile]

3. I hear you.

Such a sad day...

4. They are so stupid here. Guns and Jeebus are all that matters.

I live in beady-eyed Barton's district.

I went to college with Barbara Radnofsky and her brothers. She is a very bright lady but can't get elected.

Up here they just looove stupid Louie Gohmert in Tyler (Goomer the Tumor) and Joe Barton.


Goddamn fundies and their no-fun zones. They are convinced that if they go wet or damp (sell beer and wine) their towns will automatically turn into Sin City (like there was no crime or hookers before).

AGGGGGHHHH!! :banghead:
