"Rep. Jeb Hensarling, a rising congressional star in a time when Texas Republican influence is dimming in Washington, deserves re-election. The two-term Republican is a thoughtful conservative who, though we sometimes disagree with him, is a careful and fair deliberator. The Fifth District representative is also a man of conviction in a party and a Congress where that's increasingly hard to find.
"...but truth to tell, if more politicians were like Jeb Hensarling, Congress would have a far better reputation."
