I think this guy switched parties only to save his own skin.

Ha ha... yeah. This guy won’t fool anyone.

Whatever his motives, I’ll take him. Makes quorum games by the other side more difficult to pull off

I think this guy switched parties only to save his own skin.

While I am sure that self preservation has a lot to do with it, keep in mind that the RGV is nearly Democrat central in Texas (after the big cities).

There is a long tradition of Texas democrats being fiscally conservative but socially liberal.

This guy sounds like a Latino version of the East Texas democrats, that finally woke up and realized that the party has left him high and dry.

I will give him a chance ... knowing that he will be to the political right of all the democrat leftists, and to the political left from me.
