Back in time for Texas Tuesday… Sorta
I’m back from vacation and Texas Tuesdays is back on a Wednesday. Today TT shifts back to US House races. This week’s candidate is Jim Nickerson who is running in District 4 (Northeast Texas) against two-timing, yellow-bellied, party-switcher Ralph Hall. You can read a little bit about Nickerson here and check-out some of his stances on the issues here.
These house races are so important because every one we Democrats win is a kick in the nads to Tom DeLay and his redistricting plan. The good news is that Hall’s district is now huge and many of the people in it have never been represented by the nutty old turncoat, so Nickerson, who is toward the conservative end of the Dem spectrum, may have a good shot.
