The other interesting thing about Dewhurst is that most of the state senate seems cowed by him because Lt. Gov is the most powerful political position in Texas.

Dewhurst is flailing, and making enemies. Sorta like what we've seen on this thread tonight.

I expect to see some kind of revolt against that kind of intimidation right after the election.

It may be quiet, but I expect it. Hell, I'm encouraging it.

Yup. Call in the Jonathan Crane Theory of Electoral Brinksmanship. Most recently utilized (disastrously) by Team McCain, just four short years ago.
