The Texas delegation needs to back Gohmert.
“.......Texas has 25 Republican House members, the largest GOP delegation in Congress, a number that increased by one in the incoming Congress. Former CIA operative Will Hurd of San Antonio, the first African-American Republican from Texas, defeated Rep. Pete Gallego, D-Alpine, in the 23rd Congressional District.”

Cool! I suspect that Pete Sessions will support Boehner (just from what I’ve read on FR about Pete - don’t really know much about him).
Thanks for the reminder about Hurd. Right after the election, folks were saying the Pubs had elected 2 AAs (Scott and Love) and I kept saying, no we have 3 - don’t forget Hurd.
THAT would be cool.
I’m pretty sure boehner and pelosi already have it arranged to get beohner the votes he needs even if 29 Rs vote for a nonBoehner.
But if they’re surprised and on the first ballot all of texas and say Georgia plus a random dozen vote for a nonBoehner, it’s on!
Agree....EVERY Texan needs to call/fax/email their Pubbie Reps .....tell them to...
