Host Bob Edwards talks with Texas State Senator Teel Bivens and Professor George Edwards, Director of the Center for Presidential Studies at Texas A&M, about the prospect of Texas Governor George W. Bush appointing Democrats to his Cabinet. Both men have worked extensively with Bush and say that the governor's bipartisan record in Texas will continue. Some past presidents have crossed party lines with Cabinet appointments, but it hasn't always guaranteed legislative bipartisanship.
