A wealthy businessman in his district spent millions trying to defeat him in 2012, to no avail. Straus’ seat is a suburb of San Antonio.

I believe Straus’ family owns the Retama racetrack on I-35 just north of San Antonio.

How about this?
Please don’t recommend a ZOT for me here.
What if (assuming we can’t primary him out) we hold our noses and convince all the anti Strauss people in his district to vote for the Dem?
That single Dem can’t do near the amount of damage that this ass hat has done to our state.
Once he is gone the conservatives in the house won’t have to worry about being put in an impossible spot by having to vote for a sure loser as Spaeker (and subsequent assignment to the most meaningless committees in the House).
He has to go! I don’t care what it takes.
