Colin Allred is the male version of KH.

Here’s his pitch:

1) I’m black
2) I played football
3) My mother was a teacher
4) Ted Cruz bad

It’s appalling that Cruz is actually in a close race against Allred. If even Texas is under threat, nowhere in the US is safe against Leftist infestation.

Heck, Cruz won by a squeaker over Beto O’Rourke the last time.

Soros is really funding Allred, it’s almost impossible to watch TV because every commercial break is filled with his tripe...

New York and California are pouring huge sums of money into this race to try to upset Cruz. But when it comes time to re-elect John Wayne Cornyn, they won’t try nearly as hard being he is an assistant democrat.

It is tripe. I don’t think it is that close. Cruz will take this by 7 or 8 points.

1) Republicans have taken Texas for granted.

2) There are a lot complacent Republican leaders in TX who have less than stellar records addressing the immediate needs of people. Like reforming the electrical power grid, which has been compromised during freezing cold winters and hurricane fallout in the intensely humid summer. People suffered power outages for weeks.

3) Lots of Californians moved to Texas. And hipster enclaves like Austin have Hollywood and Silicon Valley ties, driving the state’s cultural direction.

4) Texas is a border state and Latinos are not a monolith voting block by any means, but there is definitely a culturally Marxist brand of politics that resonates with sizable segment.

5) Megachurch fatigue. Megachurch corruption has impacted the spiritual condition of Texas. Materialism and sports idolatry are more a thing.

6) George Soros

7) The legacy of prominent Texas-based feminism championed by likes of the late former governor Ann Richards and her daughter Cecile, who led Planned Parenthood for many years.

Interesting....
This is the best Cruz has done in years.
Its almost like Vance has shown the GOP that YES you can fight back.
Lets hope this is a sign of future things for the GOP.

I dont think anyone ever doubted that Craz isn’t a brilliant guy. He is.

I really hope he wins this race. I think he will.

First question was on abortion. The mods are in on it.

Received numerous texts in name of Liz Cheney asking to support this guy! I’m in OC California! I text stop but they keep sending this cr@ppola!

Here is the text:
———, this is Liz Cheney, and I’m proud to endorse Colin Allred for Senate against Ted Cruz in Texas.

Colin is the ONLY Senate candidate I’ve endorsed so far this year, and there’s a reason for that. If we’re going to begin to repair our politics, we must elect serious people.

I have worked with Colin in Congress, and I believe he’s the right candidate for the job, a public servant who will serve Texas and our country with honor.

Another thing you need to know is that experts from every end of the political spectrum are saying Colin can win. Leaked polling from Mitch McConnell’s super PAC shows Colin just 1 point down, which means Ted Cruz can be defeated.

Let’s not waste it: Will you join me with a donation of $25 or more right now to help Colin defeat Ted Cruz? https://g.ive.blue/99uAO3c1

Thank you.
Liz Cheney

Anyone know what Liz Cheney’s approval rating is with Freepers?

If it was not for his wife being a partner at goldman-sucks I would like to have seen Ted as President at one time. I have said that Cruz writes legal briefs in his head while presenting them to the Supreme Court verbatim while taking random questions from the Justices on matters of legal precedence and theory and is usually at least 3 to 5 pages ahead of what he is presenting in his thinking. An NFL linebacker or whatever is not even in the same universe as Cruz. His bell must have been rung too many times to have agreed to debate Cruz.

Should not even be a contest for Cruz to be concerned about. Just shows how bad Texas has become.

Been bombarded by ads for Alred on YouTube. Have not noticed any for Cruz.

You should have a “block number” feature in your phone’s arsenal. Texting back “stop” just confirms they hit a working number, imho.
Now, they will just use another number tomorrow, but just keep blocking them. They are not going to stop. They will just ignore the law. [And this is both sides, btw. I get more Republican texts than dumblecrat ones.]

THAT said, Cruz is a very able and smart senator. I am always surprised he is not 10 points ahead. But it shows how corrupted with leftist sewerage even TX has become.

Beta and this guy and Harris are proof that money can take you a long way, but will it get you across the finish line first, that is the question

I have no idea what YouTube ads cost, knowing YouTube I am sure they are highly discounted for dims, none the less the number of camel
Toe ads begging for money on conservative programs is amazing
