“We’re getting to see it in real time: the conflict and the different ideological stances that the Republican Party has,” Matt Langston, a Republican strategist who works in Texas, said last week. That tension over who is conservative enough is why former Texas Sen. Bob Deuell said he expects Paxton will be acquitted.
