I’m sitting in the Atmos Energy building in good ole’ Midland (far enough away it makes San Angelo a pit stop). Speaker of the Texas House Tom Craddick is facing off against his Democratic/Independent opponent Bill Dingus. So far, Craddick is holding his own and is coming off as  quite likeable to this group. The room is split up with Craddick supporters on one side and Dingus supporters on the other. If the showing is any indication of the election, then Dingus is in some trouble.

I will let you know if this thing heats up.

6:32pm-Ok, it has heated up a bit. They got into a discussion about the Trans Texas Corridor. Craddick offiically announced he is AGAINST the corridor and he said it is DEAD.
