The Texas Governor really does not have a great deal of POWER. The Speaker of the House and Lt. Governor both wield more power at least when the Legislature is in Session!
I aim to see it changed.
Along with a wholesale change in the Texas Constitution.
If I'm to reach, I'll reach for stars.

Our upcoming new Lt. Governor Dan Patrick is hell bent on getting the Travis County DA's office out of the political witch hunting business. Now that Donehurst is out of the way, I am hoping 2015 will make it happen.
This event if one thing, will finally flush Strauss out as a RINO, especially if he tries to block legislation again.
