I think we've all known that Straus has been a problem for a while. But I believe that the blogger is creating or at least exaggerating a situation between Abbott and Patrick to serve his own agenda.Rex B wrote:The fact that Patrick and the Senate are butting heads with Straus is a matter of record. As much as I agree with Patrick's agenda, he is a confrontational individual. I am OK with that - we need more of it at all levels - but it is not always the best way to advance a worthwhile agenda.
But the bottom line is we did not get rid of Strauss - again.

Re: Here we go again
I'd take this blogger with a grain of salt. This quote was attributed to Paul Burka after the elections:
"The big winners from the primary runoff were Dan Patrick and the tea party. The big loser was the state of Texas, which sailed into unknown territory. The tea party, collectively, is in total control of the state, and the consequences are going to be staggering. All state services are in peril, in particular, the public schools. It’s the revenge of the know-nothings."
I wouldn't believe a word that came out of this guys mouth. He obviously has an agenda against the right.
