You do understand that in Texas the Lt. Governor holds the most powerful political office in the state?

Our governor can't even pardon death row inmates without permission.

Dewhurst and Straus run the state.

Gov Goodhair talks and shoots coyotes while jogging. When the legislature is in session, every other year, he might have to sign something.

I’m not up on TX politics, but I’d have to think that regardless of where you are, embracing anything your voters reject this thoroughly is a stupid move.

And Perry had to know from the internals that his LT was in the deepest, darkest of poop. There’s no way this blowout was a total left field shock to them. It seems more likely to me that he is ‘bitterly clinging’ to his old TTC old biy network and is perfectly willing to ride it straight to hell with the rest of them.

Overall it seems to be the same result as the 10 election. The old guard refuses to give in regardless of the cost.And the people have other ideas. I know a lot of people think Perry is a conservative, and yes, he has several conservative positions. But he’s GOP first and Conservative whenever.
