Dems running into more Texas trouble
American Thinker ^ | March 11, 2014 | Rosslyn Smith

There is another roadblock on the Democrats' plan to turn Texas blue. On Monday Michael Barone belatedly noted the unexpected showing of Ray Madrigal indicates possible dissatisfaction by Hispanics with the pro-abortion feminists beloved by Democratic Party leadership. What hasn't earned more than a couple of brief mentions, however, is the unexpected development in the US Senate race in Texas. The Democrat plan was to have an attractive, well financed candidate ready for after the Republicans pulled themselves apart in a battle between the establishment and the Tea Party. The reality is the Republican primary was tame but there is to be a runoff between the Democratic Party's favored candidate, millionaire David Alameel, and Kesha Rogers, a 37 year old African-American follower of Lydon LaRouche.

Alameel is a founder of the Jefferson Dental Clinic chain and he is said to be pumping a significant part of his personal fortune into his campaign. He has supported Republican candidates in the past, but now says Republicans have become too extreme. Rogers had raised next to nothing. She has also called for the impeachment of Obama and is said to have once painted a Hitler-like mustache on an Obama poster. She has been photographed holding such a poster.

Thus the question here is: did Rogers do as well as she did because the voters were ignorant of her political connections or was it because they knew, but liked her strident anti-Obama message?

Send your money to the guy up against Mitch. Don’t worry about a dem getting elected Senator in Texas, much less some camel jockey.

Those people have been all over TX. They were in front of our Post Office some weeks ago. I think the anti-Obama sentiment got her a lot of votes. I pray that a lot of uninformed Blacks will vote...... for someone named Kesha.

We have our own fish to fry in Texas, so not locked hard on other races.

Hope the best for Matt Bevin, he’s up against a dirty politics fighter. Internal GOP politics that is, just not much against the real enemy!
