Old Ciro Rodriguez is coming back to mount a challenge against Henry Cuellar, his nemesis from two years ago. Some Democrats dismissed Cuellar as a DINO (Democrat in name only) acknowledging his close ties with then Governor Bush and appointment my now Governor Perry.
Well Henry didn't disappoint. One of the deciding votes on CAFTA, Cuellar has stood with the Republicans on many issues since being elected to Congress. This unreliable Democrat needs to be defeated and sent back to Laredo and likely a cushy job with International Bank of Commerce.
Whoever wins the primary has no Republican challenger, only a little know Libertarian so whoever wins the primary will win the seat.
I'll make a prediction here, Ciro will be back in Congress in '07.
