The LTGovernor is the president of the senate and actually serves the same purpose as harry reid. Similarly, obama couldn't fire harry either.

By saying they were both Republicans I thought you meant they were elected together or that Perry had tipped his hat to him, I misunderstood.

Gotcha.  I believe the misunderstanding came from where I was clarifying that what I posted from Wiki about the election process there which stated they could be from different parties, in this case they aren't.

The easiest way to understand it is that the LTGovernor is not the same as the VP, it is the same as the majority leader in the Senate. Two separate offices that are not connected in any way. The LTGovernor controls what the Senate votes on, what is presented, what is discussed, etc. just like Harry Reid does in the Senate. That is why he had the power to pull Dan Patrick's bill and kill it; with or without the support of the governor.

So at any rate, the TX Lt. Gov. needs to be primaried.

He needs to be put back in the box and shipped back to the factory where he came from!
