In Your Face, Tom Delay!! - Lloyd Doggett To Abandon Unwinnable
District 10, and instead run for election in the newly-created District 25...my new district! That means I may not lose Doggett after all!! HOORAY!! :thumbsup:

Tom Delay, ex-exterminator and now Republican House Whip drew the new lines in Texas with an eye towards getting rid of Doggett. District 10 was carefully drawn to insure Doggett's defeat.

So Doggett is now running for the seat for District 25.

Take THAT, you freaking cockraoch, Tom DeLay!!
NOW, we all know why you gave up the pest-control business and ran for Congress...you couldn't stand killing cockroaches anymore, seeing as how you're such a cockroach yourself!!

IN YOUR FACE, Tom DeLay!! :kick:

drew the lines to increase Republican power, which he will do, w/ or wo Lloyd.

Glad you have a rep you can be happy with, but this shameful power play and a subversion of our democracy still is on course and the republic shall then be smashed.

3. District 25
runs from southeast Austin at it's northernmost point in a thin southerly line to the Mexican border, with the town of McAllen, Texas at it's southernmost point.
District 25 currently has no incumbent, but it appears Lloyd may be going head-to-head with Rep. Hinojosa.
