Run? RUN?! It ain't runnin when you're outnumbered 10 to 1. (present meaningless gubernatorial race excepted)

It's a tactical retreat son. Houston ran from Santana for weeks until he turned and devoured him in 18 minutes.

Houston refused to come to the aid of the Alamo defenders because he knew it was a trap.

Washington is a lost cause. The only reason they stay afloat is because the cannibalize the likes of you. Move out. Let them starve and then go back in and own the place in years hence.

Who'd a thunk a Texan would be such a run-away coward?

Be that as it may, our worst electoral defeats here in Washington have been only 2:1 -- numbers I used to think a Texan would be willing and strong enough to stand up against. And with courage (sometimes) carry the day against.

10 to 1? Try at best 2 to 1 -- your yellow stripe shows through, sonny boy. It looks like the Texan is weaker than the Pacific Northwest Mossback. I take pride here -- we mossbacks stand and fight; we may be slightly outnumbered here, but we don't run, hide, shiver and cower unlike you Texan folk.

And do us all real FReepers a favor, please? Just stay there in Texas where (I hope) there exist brave fighters still. But if you can't take it there, may I suggest you'd like New Jersey where you can exist perfectly comfortably forever in your complete and total ineffectiveness, Mr. Texan?
