Congratulations must go out to Ciro Rodriguez in House District 23 this morning, because he is now Texas' newest member of the U.S. House of Representatives. And he did it convincingly.
I have to admit that I thought this one would be a squeaker, and the Democrats would be lucky to win by a point or two. But Rodriguez had other plans -- like getting over 54% of the total vote! He took Bonilla to the woodshed and gave him an old-fashioned whuppin'. District 23 is no longer red, or even a shade of purple -- it's now a very nice shade of blue.
Thank you South Texas, and congratulations to U.S. Representative Ciro Rodriguez. It was a wonderful night. Let's hope it was a harbinger of many future Democratic victories.
