The Reps should vacate the quorum...

How about having a few rich Texas Republicans flying to Albucrackie to hound these rich RATS until they cave.

I'm pretty sure Big Media would show up for that...

Hounding them untill they cave?(I think the Rats are holding out untill October. As I understand it, by then it will be too late for the 2004 elections for redistricting to have any effect, for at least 2004.) How about making a citizens arrest and dragging them back to Texas?

I went.
Hitched a ride with 2 of Senator Van de Putte's constituents. And, miracle of miracles, she actually met with us this morning for nearly an hour. Then we were interviewed by the press, who seemed to all be from the print media.
But, Senator Van de Putte is firm that none of this is the Dem's fault, that very few Republicans even want the redistricting anyway, and that she and the other dems will block redistricting any way they can.
We just got in from driving back, so I'm pretty much done in. Check back tomorrow, and I'll ping you to my more complete report, complete with pictures of the Van to Van de Putte and the Senator and the South Texas Repubican representatives. (Some how, we didn't get a picture of me - possibly because I was the photographer.
