Don't know much about Texas politics but if one gets into a debate with James Baker you better know damn well what you're talking about.
"...but if one gets into a debate with James Baker you better know damn well what you're talking about. " That is a certainty. I don't agree with some (perhaps many)of Baker's policy positions, but he is one of the best attorneys in the country, and one of the better attorneys in the last 50 years. He's not a guy to be trifled with.
