John will hang around for 3 more months. 3 expensive months. You can thank Wesley Hunt for that when re runs or his next statewide primary.

I posted, earlier, that I wonder how much “splitter” Wesley Hunt, the former 0bama voter/Crenshaw acolyte, is being paid to run in this race.

It depends if she can get blacks registered and to the polling places. A huge percentage of Texans don’t vote. I certainly think it’d be a disaster if she won.

Watch for John Wayne McCornyn to have a big public hissy fit when he gets beat. And he’ll vote with the Dim’s even more than normal. I’m

HOOO-BOY, This is gonna be fun to watch tonight!!

Lookin' at YOU, Cornyn!!!

Oh, how one wishes one could drive down there just to vote against Cornhole. But that would of course be illegal, and it's not like we don't have close to the same problem here...

Also one has heard informed speculation to maybe place a uh, dare one say it? A dark horse bet on Jasmine in the other side's primary? Her base doesn't generally like the Talerico types...

“Watch for John Wayne McCornyn to have a big public hissy fit when he gets beat. And he’ll vote with the Dim’s even more than normal.”

You may be right but he’s not getting “beat” TODAY.

He will advance to the runoff so it doesn’t matter at all whether he does so after finishing first or second today.

What matters is what will happen nearly 3 months from now — May 26 — as the Democrats (with no runoff on their side to be concerned with) sit back, laugh, and watch Cornyn and Paxton try to destroy each other even more.

This might be a good time to say a prayer that Crockett wins today on the Democrat side because she can’t beat any Republican statewide (if she CAN, then Texas is gone). Jimmy Swaggart Talarico is scum but he *can* (I didn’t say “will”) win, especially against some mortally wounded Republican.

Last nights news said latest poll on Crockett was only 1 point ahead of the dem guy. She’s lost a bunch last few weeks.

theguardian.com excerpt—— Democratic state representative James Talarico has crisscrossed the deep-red counties that voted for Trump, preaching a “politics of love” that roots progressive policy in the teachings of his Christian faith. The 36-year-old former middle school teacher and current seminary student argues that the central divide in American politics is “not left v right” but “top v bottom” and says Democrats can rebuild trust in rural and suburban communities without abandoning core values.

He faces Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett, a firebrand progressive whose unsparing attacks on Trump and Republicans have earned her a starring role in the resistance movement to his second term. Crockett, 44, entered the race in December, just before the filing deadline, embracing a different political playbook. Casting herself as a “proven fighter” who “drives the president crazy”, Crockett contends that high turnout among young voters and voters of color – not ideological moderation – is the key to winning statewide.

The Democratic contest underlines a central debate that has animated the party since Trump’ s 2016 victory: whether they win by “doubling down” on their base and its fury with Trump’s presidency, or by courting independents and swing voters disenchanted with partisanship and the political status quo.

Tuesday’s election will hardly be the final word, but as polls open in the nation’s second-largest state, Democrats will be monitoring the political currents closely, as they target Republican-held seats in other states, from Alaska to Maine.
