Yeah, yeah. I read about Dan Patrick and his "revolt." Except he has no solution of his own, does he? He just doesn't like what Perry, John Sharp, and the GOP legislature came up with.
They'll vote for Perry, unless they want a very liberal Democrat (Ma Strayhorn) or a candidate who will make Texas a laughingstock (Friedman).
Dan Patrick didn't have a hand in the writing and adoption of the anti-HB3 resolution by all the precinct chairpersons in Harris County. The grass roots is behind this 'revolt' against the RINO lawmakers in Austin and it should be taken very seriously.
Many Republican voters in November, rather than vote for Gov. Perry's opponent, may skip the Gov. race altogether. Republican candidates down ballot will suffer if large numbers of Republican voters don't vote straight ticket in November. Time will tell.
