“Bingo”
Thanks. The really big case here where he showed his contempt towards the party, and the voters in general, was the Trans-Texas Corridor. It was an INSANE idea from the start, and near the end 90% of the state was against it, including, of course, most Republicans.
...but it wasn’t until Kay Bailey Hutchison started using it against him in her futile run for governor that he finally disowned it. In other words, only when he saw his own political future threatened did he stop (or, really, semi-stop, he’s still doing it, though more quietly). For conservatives, that’s all we had to see to fully understand him. That’s also why he made that ‘heartless’ comment...it really was what he thought of people that dare to question him.
