The thing is, this numbskull is about the most ethical and best qualified candidate that the Texas Rats can find these days.

AUSTIN, Texas -- It has been an up-and-down week for Texas State Representative Ron Reynolds. On Tuesday, Reynolds, an attorney and Democrat representing Missouri Springs, coasted to an easy re-election, winning 66 percent of the vote against his Republican opponent. Wednesday, he was in a Montgomery County courtroom -- not to represent a client, but to face trial for 10 felony counts of "barratry," the illegal solicitation of clients by attorneys commonly referred to as "ambulance chasing." Finally, on Friday, he managed to avoid a felony conviction, but was found guilty of six misdemeanor counts for a lesser charge of "solicitation of professional employment."
As Breitbart Texas previously reported, Reynolds has had multiple ethical and legal problems since being admitted to the Texas Bar in 2000, including having his license to practice law suspended twice by the Texas Bar and a $10,000 fine by the Texas Ethics Commission for failing to file required campaign finance disclosures, which he failed to pay until after the Texas Attorney General sued him to collect and the Comptroller placed a "warrant hold" on his state reimbursement checks. These problems, coupled with his lack of legislative accomplishments, led Texas Monthly to brand him one of the "Worst Legislators of 2013."

The thing is, this numbskull is about the most ethical and best qualified candidate that the Texas Rats can find these days.
And this does not matter to the D voters. That’s the real problem.
Barratry? Is someone mis-spelling Battery?
just goes to show ya..there are no good child molesters or registered Democrats....
So, is he supposed to succeed Sheila Jackson Lee, or Eddy Bernice Johnson?
Article says it’s the legal term for ambulance chasing.
Is Barackatry the practice of malpractice at the executive level?
The verdict was no felony, just misdemeanors. So, I guess he needn’t retire from office unless he feels like it.
Texas has rat “strong holds” outside of big cities?
First, there is no Missouri Springs in Texas. It's Missouri City. There is a Spring, TX in Montgomery County, but I don't think it has anything to do with this story.
Second, Ron Reynolds represents Missouri City in Ft. Bend County, not Montgomery County.
I'm sure the charges against Reynolds are reported accurately, but the where is way wrong.

Recall

Well that photo answers my question as to how this guy got elected in Texas.
And this is why we need to recall these idiots, as I said yesterday. Can we at least get rid of the corrupt/criminal ones (I know that’s a redundant statement)!!!
Another one with a sense of entitlement.....a wasted education.
I guessing that his district is majority black, so what he does will make no difference. As long as he stays black and democrat the blacks will vote for him.
The ONLY thing they care about is the race of the voter; however, when both candidates are equal on this aspect, THEN Mencken's analysis comes into play
“The state — or, to make matters more concrete, the government — consists of a gang of men exactly like you and me. They have, taking one with another, no special talent for the business of government; they have only a talent for getting and holding office. Their principal device to that end is to search out groups who pant and pine for something they can’t get, and to promise to give it to them. Nine times out of ten that promise is worth nothing. The tenth time it is made good by looting ‘A’ to satisfy ‘B’. In other words, government is a broker in pillage, and every election is a sort of advanced auction on stolen goods.”
