You might say that... The GOP organization in our (Cass) county is actually the local "Patriots" group that began with the Tea Party. No "GOPe RINOs" in these here Piney Woods!
FWIW, my "HRC Video" was first created for our Patriots group -- as a "PowerPoint" presentation...
But, we're still stuck with TXGOP rules when it comes to things like official (voting) Committee member designations... :-(
Anyhow, looks like we're going to have an adequate replacement for Ratcliffe!
