Texas is going to be vulnerable to a big Dem push....my money is on AG Greg Abbott(R) if he decides to run. It’s either him or perennial candidate Kinky Friedman

Kinky might actually win this go round............

Texas is not vulnerable this time around, it'll be 2018 or 2022 at the earliest. The Dems don't have any viable candidates, and don't mention the pro-abortion Wendy Davis, because her seat is too valuable to the Dems in the Senate.
I believe it will be Abbott, the people who told me that there would be pressure on Perry to step down from re-election were Abbott backers.
Although if Kinky Friedman runs on another platform of not doing anything if elected, a lot of folks could probably get behind that at this point ;-)

There is no way a Dem will win Texas for a few decades, unless Shamnesty is somehow passed.
Dems had a chance in the 80's before the Democratic Party became the Demonicrat Party. Now, the differences, at least nominally, are so stark, most Texans would elect GW Bush again before they would elect someone from the Party of Satan.
