Just said on the news that Bonilla will concede. I'm more than upset about this one. Bonilla was safe until redistricting. It was a tough race because of being right before the holidays and people being too preoccupied with other things. Plus I heard the Dems brought a lot of people in from DC to help Rodriguez's campaign. I'm not sure what the Republicans did for Bonilla.

The dems dumped a million into the race the last week I think. At the minimum.

Major DITTO. Thanks, Tom Delay for helping get W. Texas the shaft AGAIN. Now we lose another effective (South)West Texan representative. Go ahead, FReepers, flame away. I'm going in the kitchen for a 5th Crown & water anyway.

Tonight we lose a good one.

I'm sick of this.

What the hell is wrong with people?!

1 million dollars can buy a lot of get out the vote. They probably had buses on the south side (Hispanic side) of SA taking people to the polls.

I wonder if Bonilla even knew that he could lose. His advisors probably kept telling him it was a sure thing because TX is a "Republican state."

Hadn't the GOP once talked about Bonilla as a potential US senator? I guess not now. :(

Kind of scary too that anywhere the Dems now think redistricting is not fair to them they can just go to the courts and whine. The courts then conceivably will overturn the will of the elected state legislature and help the Dems win. So much for fairness and decency.

Shoot, I got two calls from President Bill Clinton asking me to vote for Ciro. He even came to San Antonio.
