Lone Star Iconoclast interviews David Van Os
David Van Os is sitting on a green couch, and he won't give up.

Though it's late, around 11:30-ish, and he's visibly tired, there are no signs of him calling it a night on his own. The conversation is too interesting for him.

Three things kept the so-called cynical journalist (me) sitting next to him awake last Friday night. One is the earnestness of this candidate for attorney general of Texas. The other is his bluntness, and finally, his honesty, which is perhaps the most refreshing oddity.

An "earnest, blunt, and honest politician", you ask?

Hell, what's a Texas Democrat got to lose? Besides, something's got to stick eventually, right? Why not try something new?
