It translates to “Texas has a massive media markets and consultants get 20% on when they sell an ad-buy on behalf of a candidate, so lets throw money at Texas because it makes us more money” when you translate it to DNC consultant.
It’s not turning anything until we get rid of Abbott, Patrick, and Paxton. Best Talarico can do is one of those three. This state is so fucked up. Our elections are fucked.
I moved from Austin to Jackson Hole, Wyoming after 23 years there. Wyoming is still red, but at least they leave me the fuck alone. Texas is always all up in your shit.
There is next to 0 public land in Texas too, people like to compare it to the western states and its just wrong. The state of small government (for corporations and civil protections)
And we’re supposed to be fervent conservationists with respect for our parks and wildlife, but you can’t eat a fish you catch here without getting poisoned by 20 kinds of chemicals
There is a great line in the book “The Right Stuff” that says basically that. Houston was a hellhole in the 50s and all that which made ot that way has gotten worse or not gone away since then. All the mercury and dioxins are still in the silt in the San Jascinto river or Galveston Bay, or in your fresh gulf shrimp (sponsored by BP and TransOcean)
Talarico is running against Paxton for which is going to replace Cornyn.
Gina Hinojosa is running against Abbott, the limited polling so far has her losing by 3-8%. Which is within striking distance depending on what else goes on. I would assume that if Hinojosa wins, Vikki Goodwin will beat Patrick.
It’s because I think the GOP has all the voting machines rigged, so doesn’t matter who people vote for only GOP can win in any major election in Texas. So this guy will not get elected. Even if everyone in Texas votes for him.
“X to turn Texas State Blue” has to be the most reused political headline of all time.

I hear it about as much as I hear about the year of the Linux desktop.

Especially for a state that’s supposed to be all about rugged individualism, they can’t stay out of your pants

This is nice. We have to win harder than they can cheat.

The problem with fucking idiots is that they’re always fucking other fucking idiots and creating more fucken fucking idiots!
That about sums up my life experience.
For a visual version, this process is graphically explained in the first few minutes of the documentary Idiocracy.
And strangely enough I could only watch about 15 or 20 minutes of it and couldn’t watch anymore. And let me add I was a HUGE B&B fan!
