Why Antcliff Can't Lose...
A couple of more thoughts on the Antcliff/Lizarraga race. Antcliff seems to always find his way back on to the bench after adversity, mostly because he’s very dialed in with appointment process. I recently wrote about the departure of Judge David Guaderrama. Even if Antcliff loses, which he will, he will likely be reappointed to replace Guaderrama until he loses to the next Democratic Party challenger. He’s a well-respected jurist by his peers and dialed in to the appointment process, so his re-appointment is likely. That is of course, predicated on a victory on the part of Governor Perry. That’s no longer a foregone conclusion…
