They must have realized something was up, since the morons didn't re-elect her.

Texas isn't going to elect this uppity home-wrecker. We prefer governors who chatter about Jesus and guns while jailing minorities and forcing the poor to live in misery, thanks.

She divorced Jeff Davis? No wonder Texas hates her.

Still, if wikipedia is correct, she had good reasons:

"Historians tend to attribute many of the Confederacy's weaknesses to Davis. His preoccupation with detail, reluctance to delegate responsibility, lack of popular appeal, feuds with powerful state governors, favoritism toward old friends, inability to get along with people who disagreed with him, neglect of civil matters in favor of military ones, and resistance to public opinion all worked against him. Davis is described as a much less effective war leader than his Union counterpart Abraham Lincoln."

Reading that article was an eye-opener. Things sure have changed in the political leadership of the South!

He's seems very nice. Heck, I would marry him.
