Well, they at least to talk the big game. Republican Susan Combs has an outstanding record as Texas Comptroller of Public Accounts – the Dems know they would be throwing money down the drain in this effort. From the Dallas Morning News:
Democrats, though, with an eye toward redistricting next session, vow to gin up a big push to unseat her. The comptroller sits on a five-member Legislative Redistricting Board. In 2006, Combs beat former Athens Democratic state Rep. Fred Head by nearly a million votes out of about 4.3 million cast.
