Thanks for the post Bob, it was very informative. I made a couple of small donations to the Patrick campaign earlier this year in both the primary and its runoff. I made those donations not knowing that much about Patrick (I’m residing in the freak state of Maryland) other than the fact that RINOs apparently hated him. My support for Patrick was mainly motivated by my disgust at David Dewhurst. It’s good to see what a great patriot Patrick is.
By the way, it is SO sweet to see Dewhurst suffer back to back humiliations at the hands of conservatives — — first by Ted Cruz and this year by Dan Patrick. Texas can look for some good news in the future with the new conservatives elected this year.

For sure. I think, but not sure, that Dewhurst was trying to undercut the conservatives in the Senate when he accidentally launched Davis’s filibuster (i.e., Dewhurst was trying to run the clock out on something we wanted). Gotta suck to be him, but on the other hand, no person, not even Cruz, could have done more to help conservatives in this election than Dewhurst did by accident. Love it.
