19. Look, we are not happy about the extreme policies

Nov 2013

down here in TX. This is not my home state & we moved here for a job. Sometimes I feel like I am living in a foreign country.

BUT I can tell you I've met a lot of great progressive folks down here (they are quiet but you can find them when you sign up to help on campaigns as I did in 2008 for Obama). The bigoted old guys and gals are dying off and this state will be in play again by 2020.

We may even be able to push Wendy into the governor's seat. So a little support here would be nice.
