41. Oh Turd Blossom Karl Rove, he's why Texas lost our way

His “whisper” campaign against Gov. Ann Richards was the start of really nasty republican behavior. And of course Karl Rove learned from none other than Lee Atwater.

Texas hasn’t been the same since then. Every republican governor has made our great state worse than the last one. So, far Greg Abbott is by far the worst governor in my lifetime.
