Burnt Orange Report

Houston Area Races

By Karl-Thomas Musselman

Greg has the skinny on what's happening over in the Houston area as State Reps start moving up to fill the soon to be vacant SD 7 seat of Jon Lindsay's. Rep. Nixon and now Rep. Hamric want in on the GOP primary action which means those House seats become slightly more interesting. Head on over for a good read which I'm not going to repeat here.

Also check out Greg's wrap-up and reflections on what we can learn here in Texas from Paul Hackett. I agree. I will challenge any Democrat in Travis county that whines about how corrupt the GOP and Tom DeLay are and why can't we ever win anything as a party and keep losing Presidential elections to sit their butts down on a campaign here in the County, be it Andy Brown, John Courage, or Diane Henson (all three of whom attended last night's DFA-Austin MeetUp where I chatted with them about their campaigns). That's where it starts folks.
