Quote from Maverick74:
It also should be pointed out that Texas is moving to the left hard and fast and will more then likely be a blue state in the not so distant future. The Republicans which use to hold a large majority of state house and senate seats, now only hold a one seat majority in both.
Also all the big cities in Texas now have democratic mayors, including a lesbian mayor in Houston. Go figure. As the Dems take the house and senate there, so goes the spending. Then add in all the illegals there and you have a recipe for huge deficits to come in the future. If this is not a perfect example of what happens when the left gets their hands on a state budget in a large state, then I don't know what is.
