Houston, Austin and now Dallas has turned blue...Fort Worth is on its way...We’re 10-12 years away from turning into a blue state.

Houston will swing back. The 2008 mistakes were elected because of Papa Doc Barack being on the ticket. Of course, part of the problem is the RINO element in the R leadership. In any event, people here will elect a corpse before they vote for a D in any county election. Dallas is probably moving the same direction.

Austin is different - it is liberal because state government jobs + university twits = liberal. It has been that way for a long time.

Not if the shooting starts first. Make a list for when the balloon goes up.

“Houston, Austin and now Dallas has turned blue...Fort Worth is on its way...We’re 10-12 years away from turning into a blue state.”

A lot of it is demographics in the large urban areas like Dallas and Houston. Hispanics (and Blacks) are now the majority in both cities and now the counties as well.
Thanks to illegal immigration (and GWB not to mention BHO).
I’d hate to guess how many of these illegals are now voting.
While I know that many of the newcomers here are Lib, there’s still quite a few Conservatives moving in as well.
And our young people are still having babies (but not as many as they used to).
Sadly, the most common boy’s name in Texas is now Jose!
:(
