Okay, maybe it's not all

Okay, maybe it's not all bad news

The Texas Democrats vanishing is a funny, and brilliant move. I first saw it reported on Wampum, then Atrios pointed out the AG of New Mexico's response to questions about whether or not NM would support extradition procedures:

"Some are speculating this request from the Texas Governor's office concerns an effort to locate missing Texas House Democrats," Madrid wrote. "If so, Texas should understand that since ski season is over, the Santa Fe Opera has not begun and President Bush was just in town, I don't think they are in Santa Fe now. Nevertheless, I have put out an all-points bulletin for law enforcement to be on the look out for politicians in favor of health care for the needy and against tax cuts for the wealthy."

Now it's being discussed all over the place. Hell, I almost think whoever thought of this should be drafted by the Dems to run for President next year. Lord knows some creativity is needed in Democratic party circles.
