Where, in Texas, can you pull a lever any more? In my county it's all electronic voting. I'd love to pull a lever against Dewhurst if I could. I will be able to tap a screen, and I suppose that's something.
That said, I do have a lot of respect for what Mr. Dewhurst did in funding the museum at Utah Beach in Normandy. Perhaps he could spend some more time there after he's done with "government service."
Metaphorically, TPM. Metaphorically. Leave me a little room for poetic license. "Spinning the little dially-wheel thing" doesn't have the same ring to it.
