High court leaves Texas seats intact

The Supreme Court refused yesterday to consider if Texas Republicans went too far last year in their strategy to enact new congressional boundaries.

The congressional map that could give Texas Republicans six more seats cleared the state Legislature after months of turmoil and two walkouts[More specifically, they were runouts. Remember the Texas Dims holed up in the motel in Albuquerque?!--Jen] by Democrats.

Yee-Haw!
The only bad news is that the Dims want their day in court a few more times:

The case is among multiple appeals at the Supreme Court over the Texas 32-district map, which has been cleared by the Justice Department and upheld by a three-judge federal panel.

Typical behavior for members of the Sore-Loserman Party!
They love their lawsuits.
But I expect we'll win those, too!
Don't mess with righteous Texas (Republicans)!
