"I don't know where we're going. I don't know how we're going to get there," one Democratic lawmaker told The Associated Press on condition of anonymity as he packed before a Sunday night rendezvous.

Hopefully some of them will resist arrest.

You gotta admit, it was pretty clever of them to plug the Dem's 2004 presidential platform in the article.

Sounds like they need a new set of rules at the Texas House.

You get the government you deserve, cowboys.

I agree, no more democrats.

I think the two party system sucks, but I'd really like to see what kind of "government" would come out of Texas without the dems involved. I'm sure it would be great fun to watch from the outside.

We could take a pool to determine just how long before we would get to see fences and armed guards at the NM, OK, AR, and LA borders.

To keep people out of Texas?

Typical liberal hipocracy. First time in 100 years in Texas that the dem's are out of power and they don't know how to act. So they won't play. How chicken ****. I think it will backfire on them. I haven't talked to one person today that isn't pissed off that they did something like this. Personally I think they should all have to spend a minimum of a night in jail. Would be cool also if they could be rounded up in NM and Ok and shipped over here in shackles.

Don't even have the balls to fight it out in the arena of ideas. Sorry my liberal friends but your leadership are bunch of whiney arsed pansies who don't know how to work if they aren't pounding thier "ideas" down the nation's throat. Thank GOD they are out of power and PLEASE let them stay that way!

I don't think Republicans would ever pull a move like this, it's not in the nature of conservatism, maintaining the status quo, traditions, etc... Put this together with other recent moves by the Democrats during the election now with the confirmation of high court justicies and their current strategy becomes clear. It's too bad, all those smart people, and they can't come up with any good ideas to counter the Republicans, they are merely reduced to stunts like this. I anticipate this one to backfire more than other actions have, especially at the local level.
