ONION, Presiding Judge,
concurring.
I concur in the result only. Viewing the evidence in the light most favorable to the jury’s verdict at the competency hearing, I would conclude the evidence is sufficient to support the judgment entered. I do not agree with the extension of Van Guilder v. State, 709 S.W.2d 178 (Tex.Cr.App.1985), the affirmative defense rationality test, to competency hearings. See and cf. dissenting opinion on State’s Motion for Rehearing Overruled Without Written Opinion in Baker v. State, 707 S.W.2d 893 (Tex.Cr. App.1986).
