The Repub caucus chair got up and left in the middle of a CNN interview. 
As you say... Looks bad on so many fronts. That said, it merely reveals them for how terrible they are and have been intractably so for decades -- while even other southern states have been moving away from some of their worst practices.
They have a lock on state government, and it seems unlikely any fallout will change them, except to harden righteously. If every "indie" voter voted Democrat next time, it'd put Dems maybe one point up. Hope I'm missing some big stuff, but at least they'll probably want to hide who they are even more when they travel.
