Dewhurst roots for home team, although his roots are elsewhere

Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst is not only a graduate of the University of Arizona, he played on the men's basketball team.

So when asked about the oh-so narrow 69-70 victory that his former Wildcats scored over the Texas Longhorns on Sunday night, Dewhurst professed with a big smile that he was hurting.

Listen, he said, his wife graduated from UT and so did most of his family. So he said he was rooting for UT in the NCAA tournament. At least outloud.

"Momma didn't raise a dumb boy," he said.
