The Progressives don't seem to hesitate for a moment when they gain the upper hand in a State or City. Both here in Texas and Nationally, I've seen the GOP fail to deliver. Twice that I recall GOP Presidents with the House and Senate did little to nothing... The Texas Legislature hasn't been a great deal better and the tolerance of Strauss is an example. The GOP is very much in danger of seeing its longtime and dependable supporters walk away because of their lack of accomplishment.

The property tax situation in Texas is a perfect example. Our taxes have become burdensome. I could pay my house off and still have a substantial nut due each month or quarter. To the point where I've seriously started listening to my wife who has suggested moving to SW Georgie or NE Fl where her people are. BIL is a GA County Sheriff... I was thinking about it, but got a scare that was about as bad as the one Irish Bob (HT to TAM I believe) when in BOTH GA and FL hard left candidates dang near took the Governors Offices. The people back east were really surprised at what were getting hit with, and you know that the odds of these taxes going down are pretty low...
