What a shock. The Houston Chronicle opposes redrawing the current Democrat-gerrymandered congressional districts.

LOL.... I'm not sure they are that worried but want to make sure they keep their presence known. I don't believe there will be an effort at this time..... but it would be nice to see them realign more with the voting patterns that have emerged over the past few years.....
But a gaggle of editorial writers from across the state last week queried Gov. Rick Perry, Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, House Speaker Tom Craddick (all Republicans) and several key legislative leaders and were told almost universally that a redistricting fight was not in the cards.
I think the above really says it all....

Let's see. U.S. Reps. Gene Green and Chris Bell, and their colleague, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee, phoned the editorial board of the Houston Chronicle with the official Democrat talking points, and the Houston Chronicle then proceeds to publish these talking points as news.
One more overt sign that most of the media are wholly owned subsidiaries of the DNC. No wonder all but the most liberal voters no longer believe them.

I'd like to query this so-called 'editorial board' as to how many of its members are Republicans.

So what are the chances? Can they get the two-thirds to revist the map?
