Last Man Standing

Last Man Standing ... now available on DVD.

I caught the bulk of this on some odd-hour PBS viewing during the campaign season. I'm not sure how great a view it gives of the historical move of Texas from being a Democratic stronghold to being a Republican bastion. But it does give some excellent insight into two campaigns - one, micro: Patrick Rose's run for State Rep ... and the second, macro: Tony Sanchez's race for Governor. A great view on how not to run for Governor is encapsulated by the movie, as well as Rose's natural ease at such an ungodly young age at the fine art of campaigning in rural Texas. Definitely putting this one on my wish list.
