Dan Patrick is ALREADY the best LT Governor in Texas History.
Long overdue. All those years DewCrist was in that office and he did nada.
“Dan Patrick is ALREADY the best LT Governor in Texas History.”
THANKS FOR THE PING!!! I always knew this guy meant business. He made Senators vote on this same bill when he first took office (as a State Senator) 8 years ago. He lost 30 to 1. My how things change when you’re the person assigning committees, rather than the “nobody” in the Senate peanut gallery (as he was 10 years ago), or the peon freshmen Senator 8 years ago.
I still remember some of the Senate elders saying (always without attribution) how Patrick was a bit too “combative and divisive” for the chamber...and that he would eventually learn how to behave, if he wanted to get anything accomplished.
Seems like he just accomplished something in his first day that Dewhurst had 12 years to do. This will be FUN!!!
