Personally I think Texas sucks. I was born there and have a bit of experience with it, but Dems there rival the ones in Mass.
Well that's one opinion one thing is certain opinions vary but Texas is a good place to live because of our personal freedoms and no State income tax.
But one thing I can agree with you on is that Texas politics is a dirty as any state, and while we have our share of corruption. Louisiana makes Texas look like the "Shining City on the Hill" in comparison.
