Whitmire! Best senate floor action evar!!!!11!

Ya -- Whitmire is 2007 Texas Senate MVP for his work on TYC and for almost punching Mr. Empty Vapid McRhetoric's lights.

Rounding off the top five are:

Ogden (for the budget/Finance)
Carona (for running an efficient, tight transportation ship)
Z (Finance backup QB and a Carona-like performance in higher-ed )
Watson (Rookie of the Year )

Being on the floor, it was really great seeing Williams, Watson, Frasier laughing it up at the far right rails....Ironically, Patrick's hand was shaking...I don't know why he's just here to work for the hard working middle class....

Tough to be a loose cannon when folks get the chance to respond to you...and you can't just turn off their phone line!

I'd put Anchia on the list for his spectacular wingnut beatdowns in Elections, and Dutton for his Drink all Night bill, and Watson for being handsome, classy and attentive to the up and coming disabled community, America's most righteous and unruly activists, watch and wait.
