Reply #13: Travis County Went Dem???

[ChiciB1]

Love It!!!! One of my 5 sisters lives in Round Rock and is SOLID Repuke. Only one in the family, but she lives in Tex-ASS so she's a sucker!

I grew up and went to school in Tex-ASS and graduated from KILLEEN HIGH SCHOOL!! Went back in 2003 for a Class Reunion and couldn't believe what a Dump the place has turned into.

But I always liked Austin and spent a LOT of time there. I actually thought about going to U.T. once! ONCE! My husband was born in Tampa, FL so we moved down here. Back when I lived in Texas, and I did so for about 15 years it was heavily Dem. I was in school when Kennedy got shot, but was visiting my sister in Austin at that time. Of course, no one will ever forget that day! She was Dem back then, but changed as time went on.

Anyway, don't get offended by the Tex-ASS spelling, it's just something I do because of you know who! Crawford is only about 40 miles from FT. Hood where I grew up! Lots of military there and I'm glad I don't live there now! Never had problems with the G.I.'s, I was an Army brat as were so many of us, but the place is a mess now.

Oh, last October Mollie Ivins was here and I got to talk to her and asked her about Killeen, her words... "it's the same ole dump it always was"! That was a thrill for me and I got my picture taken with her. What a Gal!!!!
