    I’m old enough to remember Ann Richards, and Lawton Childs here. Texas, and Florida too, are still close to 50/50, just gerrymandered to hell and back. It’s nice for Texas, I am happy for them, and Georgia too. Sorry that we couldn’t get enough people out, I kinda like Angie Nixon, it would have been great to have a progressive voice for FL. 4,207,947 votes for Moody (the traitor) 3,969,186 for an honest to God progressive.
