In reply to the discussion: Democrats flip Texas state Senate seat in shock upset [View all]walkingman
(10,472 posts)supported Talarico has started a riff by her statement that Talarico called Colin Allred a "Mediocre Black Man" which Talarico denies.
Both Talarico and Crockett will be formidable opponents against the Cornyn/Paxton candidacy.But by making this a racist issue, with Allred now endorsing Crockett and more importantly saying that Black voters should not vote for Talarico.
So who wins? The real racists - Cornyn and Paxton because in a racist state like Texas the only way a Democrat can win is the Democrats to be united.
I would not be a bit surprised if there was some nefarious stuff going on with Allred or the social media influencer - it doesn't pass the smell test.
It is really hard to beat nasty white people and they will do anything to win.
