Well, lookie here. A report from The Texas Int'l Historical Coalition of the Shockingly Obvious
AUSTIN – Texas voters are increasingly dissatisfied with the state's Republican leaders and are open to the idea of electing a Democrat as governor in the next election, according to a new survey by an established GOP pollster.

"The poll results challenge the conventional wisdom that Texas is a solidly red state," said Mr. Hill. "This shows that the Republican Party's image, even among Anglos and conservatives and self-professed Republicans, is often not what we would like it to be."

Texas voters don't think the GOP is delivering government that is low-cost, in-touch or devoted to the common good, the poll shows.
Republicans? Out of touch? This planet?
<snip>
And then lastly, to bring full circle why our local Republicans just don't get it, they are having a Christmas Party ..... at a bank. Not just any bank, mind you, The Prosperity Bank.
Oh yeah, Sweet Little Baby Jesus was born in a humble vault behind the loan department.
Money changers, please meet really hacked-off Jesus.
For goodness sake, if you're going to call it a Christmas party, have it somewhere Christ would want to go.
It's tonight. Be there and take some umbrage with you. I hope their tables are bolted to the floor. You know, just in case Jesus shows up.

1. You can tell a Texan
But you can't tell him much. I wouldn't be surprised if they continued to vote Republican until they were all in sackcloth and ashes and eating bugs and mesquite thorns.

And that's a real nice touch there, celebrating Christ with the money-changers. :eyes:
