See what happens, Al?

See what happens when you're the one Democratic vote for the Craddick tax plan? See what happens when your one big idea is the naughty cheerleading bill? See what happens when you're a sell-out, pseudo-Democratic arrogant prick? You lose, Al.

27-year incumbent Al Edwards loses
Democrat had angered party with cheerleader bill, votes with GOP

He faced the toughest battles in his career after he angered House Democratic stalwarts by voting with the Republican majority on a tax plan and an amendment banning gay marriage, refusing to flee the state with other Democrats to block congressional redistricting, and proposing legislation to ban sexy dancing by cheerleaders – a measure derided by House Democrats as a restriction on free speech.


See ya! I don't mean to revel in Al's loss. Oh, I guess I do. But at least I wasn't as blunt as Pink Dome, who had this pre-election message:

Dear Houston, My Houston. We need to get you out to the polls. We need to get rid of people like Al Edwards. If he wants to switch parties and become a Republican, that's fine. Just stop running in a Dem district (ahem, Madla) and calling yourself a Dem when you're so far up Craddick's ass you can tell us what he's had for lunch last week.


Hehe.
