The Michigan Teabaggers strut their religious hypocrisy in the legislature with a resignation and an expulsion over a sex scandal. The cover up was supposed to be an noncredible accusation of a homosexual afffair.

Found it: https://texaspolitics.utexas.edu/set...l-exit-polling

Yes, Abbott won the female vote in Texas, 54 to 45%. For the male vote, the ratio was 66 to 33%. The first does surprise me a bit, sure doesn't sound like Anne Richard's state to me.

I didn't notice that either.

I thought it was recent.

My bad.

Oh it was very worthwhile, Murray was showing his ass in more close-up glory than ever. Very revealing.

As for the 54% of women going for Abbott, I am forgetting the power of rationalization. These Texas ladies wanted to vote Republican, so they rationalized. 'Oh, you can't take that stuff serious, they're just talking trash about Wendy Davis....'

It's funny, I'll give you that.

But not accurate IMO.

I consider Trump to be an improvement over what has become standard fare for the Republican Party.

His nativism cancels him out. I think the Leader made nice highways (Autobahn) but that did not make him a positive in any stretch of the imagination.
