Speaking of bad precedents (see my post about the Senate below), I caught an after-the-gavel party near the Capitol tonight, a welcome-back affair, co-hosted by Democrat Jim Dunnam of Waco and Republican Franke Corte of San Antonio. The entertainment for the evening was the Dunnam-led cover band the Bad Precedents, and it was … well, bad. Don’t give up your day jobs, folks. (Among the “performers” I recognize: Rep. Terri Hodge, D-Dallas (fourth from left), Rep. Richard Raymond, D-Laredo (light brown jacket and red tie), and Dunnam (keyboards, far right).
Because I actually want you to return to this blog, I will refrain from posting any audio.
