Now that we’ll have an ADULT running the State Senate, as in Dan Patrick, the Dems won’t get away with that stunt again.
Having listened to Dan Patrick for a couple of years, I’d say describing him as the adult is wishful thinking.
I think he’ll win, and I hope he wins, but I’m afraid he will stick his foot in his mouth often enough that we might come to have mixed feelings.
