Craddick in good condition after collapse in committee

 Former House Speaker Tom Craddick collapsed Wednesday morning as he was laying out his bill banning texting while driving during a committee hearing.
Craddick was alert as he was wheeled out of the Capitol hearing room on a stretcher around 8:30 a.m., about 10 minutes after he dropped to the floor as he stood at the podium during the House Transportation Committee hearing.
Staffers said his condition was not considered serious.
Karen Brooks was at the hearing and filed this report:  http://dallasne.ws/fk1DmW
