   @Mr. King

   And the Repubs only retained the House because of gerrymandering. There were more overall votes cast for Democratic candidates than Repubs.

   Except for the request part.

   Which is why the Repubs are very soon going to have reason to hate Tom DeLay’s guts.
   []
   Tradtionally, redistricting happens only once at the beginning of each decade. By rights, the Dems should be powerless to do anything about this until 2020.
   []
   EXCEPT…in 2003, in an effort led by then House Majority leader Tom DeLay, Texas chose to break that tradition, redrawing the voting districts 7 years early.
   []
   Oops! In doing that, the Texas Repubs set a precedent. If, or rather WHEN the Tea-Party Repub governors get booted out of office, their Dem replacements will have the right to redraw the voting districts without waiting for the end of the decade. same as Texas did
   []
   And there won’t be a thing the Repubs can do to stop it. The courts have already upheld the right of states to dedistrict whenever they want.

   Way to go, Tommy. LOL!

    @Ms. Ima

    Y’know….I’ve seen some weird attempts to hijack threads in my day.
    But this is the first time anyone ever tried to do it by to posting an ad for their GARAGE sale.
    Anyway, no thanks…I don’t really need any Confederate flags or lawn jockeys.

    I’m reminded of the old saying, “You get what you pay for.” And for what we get from you, you should be paying us, as it’s not even worth free.

    Republicans should keep chanting that “free stuff” mantra until they are totally irrelevant , It shouldn’t take but one or two more election cycles

    @bztk

    Right. In one or two more election cycles the “free stuff” people will be a stronger majority.
