Dead tired after working the election


Will post more late today.

Meanwhile here is a link to Texas and Houston election news.

Turnout pitiful, those turning out often seem pretty uninformed.

Added - statewide results.

MORE I can't really add anything to the Kuff reports on the election. Go to the top to scroll to all the reports.

Even the Houston Chronicle notes that DeLay's strategy of only going to friendly venues and ignoring the issue of his questionable acts worked.

I feel that unless a highly respected Christian or Conservative leader says DeLay is not a victim of vast conspiracy of liberal smears, which is the DeLay defense, but is in fact venal and crooked they will continue to believe him.

Good point, but so much evidence of this guy doing seedy things. It reminds me of reading about Nazi Germany rise in the late 20s and early 30s where people just followed and never questioned and the ones that did question were dealt with harsly or demonized....

I would think that the Republicans on the House Ethics Committee giving him a slap on the wrist three times and his support for foreign manufacturers using almost slave labor to stamp MADE IN USA on their products would turn his base. Then there was the forced abortions and sex trade in Saipan from the people contributing to Tom. Nope, he is a good Christian fighting against those unChristian libruls because he says so.
