I see the Texas dims are taking a victory lap as they circle the drain.

They have the media allies to spin this as a big Democrat victory. And if they thwarted the Republican legislative process, then the sojourn to Ardmore was a Democrat victory for the time being. Plus they got to spend their sojourn in a heavily Democrat town. I do not think DEMOCRAT voters will hold this against the Democrats in 2004, but independent voters may think differently.

Well said.

They are celebrating now, but I believe the Democrats will regret their actions soon.

Well put. ;)

Aside from the sympathetic press coverage, how is this flaunting of the law going over in law-and-order Texas?

I can't see them winning many friends with this utterly stupid tactic.
