A Very Merry Un-Press Conference

Oh man, Craddick is getting ready to crack skulls. According to several sources, Pitts and McCall showed up at their press conference to announce that they are totally going to win now that they are consolidating their pledges into one easy payment, but they wouldn't want to trouble anyone by releasing a list of names.

In addition to that disaster, Senfronia Thompson is now talking about getting back into the race, saying she has sixty votes meant for McCall but that Pitts can't have them without some sort of deal.

This, ladies and gentlemen, adds up to an absolute bloodbath perpetrated by Craddick. He will drive his weakened, confused enemies before him and hear the lamentation of their women. He will be covered in gore by the end of the first week of the session, strengthened by the blood of those who dared oppose him.

Or not, I guess. There's a lot of time until Tuesday. I'm just saying that if someone doesn't whip everyone on the ABC side into shape, and fast, Craddick is going roar back to the Speakership and get the band back together in no time.
