I know most of you are going to miss Louie Gohmert.  In case you were distracted, Louie left his congressional seat to run for Texas Attorney General against Texas felony indicted Attorney General Ken Paxton.

Out of four candidates, Louie came in fifth. Okay, okay, almost fifth.

I don’t know diddle-squat about the new guy who will surely win that seat except that he admires Gohmert. That could mean that we move from dumb to big dumb. Our fear is that he’s just like Gohmert except effective.

You see, over Louie’s time in congress, he didn’t have a sterling record in effectiveness.

He exits office as Texas’ ninth most senior member of Congress, having made a mark — but not legislatively. In nine congressional terms, he’s passed just one bill into law, a measure in 2017 that simplified the process for calling 911.

We are worried that the new guy can get something passed. As far as we know so far, he may not cast a reflection in a mirror.
