In As Texas Goes...How the Lone Star State Hijacked the American Agenda, Gail Collins declares that "what happens in Texas doesn't stay in Texas anymore."
Not until she visited Texas, the state of big oil and bigger ambitions, did Collins, the best-selling author and columnist for the New York Times, realize that she had missed the one place that mattered most in America’s political landscape.
Through its vigorous support of banking
deregulation, lax environmental standards, and draconian tax cuts,
and through its fierce championing of states rights, gun ownership, and
sexual abstinence, Texas has become the bellwether of a far-reaching
national movement that continues to have profound social and economic
consequences for us all. According to Collins, like it or not, as Texas
goes, so goes the nation.
