Okay, back on July 22nd, I predicted that State Representative Charlie Howard was going to resign along with Fort Bend County GOP Party Chairman Rick Miller on August 2nd.  Miller would then run in a special election in November for Howard’s seat.

Well, Miller resigned right on time, but Howard held out until today.  He sent out emails to his supporters this morning.

Rick Miller is best known as a big ole thug who violently disrupted a Nick Lampson press conference.  Charlie Howard is known as the most conservative man in the entire Texas Lege – which you cannot do by accident or sanity.  He is also known as the greediest man in a five state area.  He admits the sin of greed and says he prays about it every day.  Apparently, it’s worked as well as Rick Perry’s rain prayers because he’s sitting on almost half a million dollars in his campaign account.

Charlie will finish out his term and since the district – my district – is 62% Republican, it’ll be a bloodbath among Republicans.  Pass the popcorn.
