In the current environment, Democrats cannot win statewide in Texas without Independents and some crossover Republicans
Almost everyone hated Ted Cruz, yet Beto O’Rourke couldn’t unseat him.
Paxton is worse than Cruz. He’s like Trump in that he has no values other than self enrichment. He lies, cheats, commits adultery and fraud, and accepts bribes.
His own staff alerted the Feds to his corruption. Trump’s DOJ dropped the investigation. The Republican controlled Legislature impeached him, but the Senate failed to convict. His corruption is a turn off for Independents and some Republicans.
Texas Republicans passed school vouchers, placed the Ten Commandments in schools and mandated the reading of Bible stories in the public school curriculum. Their’s is a faith without works. Talarico’s message of love, justice, and compassion will win over some of these Republicans.
He’s our best shot for a Democratic Senator from Texas. I hope he’s worthy of your financial support. He needs it.
