Matthew Dowd, the former chief strategist of President George W. Bush’s 2004 reelection bid, is running as a Democrat for Texas lieutenant governor, kicking off a difficult fight to oust incumbent Dan Patrick.

In a video announcing his campaign, Dowd railed against Patrick as a representative of only a small minority of Texans. He blamed Patrick for hampering local governments’ ability to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and failing to take charge after the state’s electric grid crashed earlier this year.

“The GOP politicians have failed us, especially the cruel and craven lieutenant governor,” Dowd said.

[hardspunned]

Out of the closet.

[alternatives?]

Bush or the Ex strategist?

[Army Air Corps]

Texas Ping.

[JonPreston]

Many would still vote for a Bush.

[Mr. Jeeves]

The MSM tries to make this a “man bites dog” story, when all it really is is: “Ex-Deep State Party Adviser runs as Deep State Party candidate.”

Another mask comes off.

Heil Jeb! Please clap.

[cotton1706]

Read this story then think back to 2016. Do you realize JUST HOW PISSED they must have been that we saw through and prevented their latest scheme. That Jeb! had to withdraw from the presidential race BEOFRE Florida.

And their world just has not been the same since.

Evil becomes manifest.

Remember when his young rat assistant mailed the debate briefing book to Team Horseface?

Even those here who eventually woke up to the Bushes are asleep on the Trumps.

Not related, but what the hell...

There’s never a wrong reason to post a CZJ pic.

Uniparty. They despise Trump and continue to persecute him because he exposed them. Only willful idiots and fools still believe Establishment Republicans are on our side.

[nagant]

There’s nothing Texas about the Bushes. When Bush tries to act Texas he simply portrays Texans as the idiots which Bush is. Good campaign strategy? We’ll see.

As with Romney and McCain the media loves the Bush cabal when they talk trash about Republicans. The leftist media always turns against these turncoats on the campaign trail. If Texas Republicans follows Dowd and baby Jeb down this hole it will lead to our demise.

She looks really old and simply terrible. I assume the boyfriend has to picture her bank account and close his eyes when he’s with her.

[EEGator]

I agree.
