[GeronL]

59-40 would be awesome

[cotton1706]

I’m very happy to see that Ratcliffe is already ahead. I pray he maintains his lead!

[jimbo123]

If Dewhurst is losing the early vote by that much, he’s really going to lose big when all the votes are counted.

[hoosiermama]

And the message is to the rest of the country:.......

[txhurl]

Wish I could pour you a glass of this champagne!

“....have an eye for lore.”

Damned straight!

[tennmountainman]

I posted this earlier, but the great Tea Party results that will come out
of the Great State of Texas tonight could help “Buck Up” other conservatives
in states with coming primaries such as Mississippi.
I think MS has their primaries in a week or two.

At least I’m hoping so.
