It's been called…Middleton curb-stomped ol' Chip…


Paxton
Middleton
French
Smith

Looks to be a sweep for my votes

Starting to wonder if this is foreshadowing of Trump's coattails come November…

Can't take anything for granted, but the Dems are leaderless and have nothing to run on. They always act like they're about to cruise to victory, but what is their platform right now other than hating Trump?


Well with this freak Talarico it is outright slander of the greatest book ever written - The Bible, pushing transgenderism among the youth, pushing veganism, limiting 2A rights, and pushing legalization of abortion. Some real winning policies for Texas.

Yet a handful on here are worried that he's going to steal a Senate seat. Beto had his own issues, but he was a much more relatable candidate. Just because he calls himself a preacher doesn't mean that it is true. He's a false prophet that The BIble warns us about. Christians see right through it and I'm starting to see some actual Christian pastors with very large followings really starting to go in on his beliefs. Josh Howerton out of Dallas is a prime example of somone who is getting the message out to Christians about who Talarico really is.

I think once someone like Brandon Gil gets more experience under his belt (and hopefully continues down the same trajectory as he has been voting record wise) we could see someone like him get elected to the Senate and hold the seat for a very long time. I just pray that he doesn't start to get influenced by those with money that don't have the best intentions for our great state.

I think Paxton will win but I wouldn't get too cocky. The fact that this race is competitive doesn't bode well for the GOP's chances across the country. The GOP will have to spend here instead of in more important races that are historically competitive, like Maine.

I'll never understand why Cornyn is a RINO but I do think he would clean Talarico's clock, especially with independents.

Should be interesting.


No...

This race is a microcosm race if Paxton wins in the primary.

A Republican with a lot of baggage vs a milquetoast Dem candidate that suburban white women might be willing to vote for.


It is NOT anything more than that.

I WILL agree that the Republicans will have to spend more if Paxton is the candidate than if Cornyn was the candidate, though.


Again: the fact that this is competitive does not bode well for the GOP bc they will have to spend more on this race.

I don't like Paxton at all. And I will sit out the general election rather than voting between the two.

Nevertheless, the GOP will need RINOs in Maine & Alaska to hold onto their majority. Spending more in deep red Texas makes that less likely. Seems like a silly risk to take.

This lowers the vote total that Talarico needs to win.

If your goal is to have a Democrat Senator for 6 years, you're doing the right thing to advance that.


Then the GOP shouldn't nominate someone with so much baggage. My vote is earned; I owe the GOP nothing.

That's fine. But, if Talarico wins, don't complain since you helped him do it...


No. Actually it's not my fault. I didn't nominate him. The GOP did. Blaming voters for bad candidates is a recipe for disaster.

You helped lower the barrier he had to cross to win by not voting. Paxton sucks as a human. But, he's better than Talarico (both as a human AND how he'd be as Senator).

No way you actually believe that, right? Right?! Talarico actually follows the teachings of Jesus. Paxton does not.

I seriously cannot comprehend how so many graduates of our great university have come to hold views that are so distorted from reality. These "Christian" nationalists really are wolves in sheep's clothing…father forgive them for they don't know what they do.

No he doesn't, stop lying.

I see the left has now fully changed the narrative on religion. They used to be called the Religious Right. But that doesn't sound evil enough. They needed a name that people could vilify...So now, they're Christian Nationalists. OOOOH!!! Sounds like a boogey man NOW!!!

A vote for Talarico is a vote for Satan. There is no in between, there is no gray area, you can try to spin the narrative all you want. If you truly call yourself a Christian, voting for low t is voting for the devil himself.

I don't know who this chick is but I got served her analysis of Paxton v Cornyn.

She said that Paxton has some real baggage but... she called Cornyn - "The Avatar for The Swamp". I thought that was hilarious and wanted to share. I'm only 2 minutes in so I don't know how good the rest will be.

Its at the least a vote for a Marxists, who is pro open borders, and anti-gun. Never a good idea to vote for someone who would line you up against a wall to be shot.

An old, but apt fable:

A scorpion wants to cross a river but cannot swim, so it asks a frog to carry it across. The frog hesitates, afraid that the scorpion might sting it, but the scorpion promises not to, pointing out that it would drown if it killed the frog in the middle of the river. The frog considers this argument sensible and agrees to transport the scorpion. Midway across the river, the scorpion stings the frog anyway, dooming them both. The dying frog asks the scorpion why it stung despite knowing the consequence, to which the scorpion replies: "I am sorry, but I couldn't help myself. It's my character."

He may be referencing Talarico. Basically, saying that you cannot be someone you've built your entire reputation on, only to then say that I would never do that, knowing damn well you will do that.

Hilarious. Them're sour grapes from Cornyn but without the balls to actually name names or call someone out directly. Basically, same as career.

Seriously politicians need to avoid that fable like the plague. Do they not realize they describe themselves with it? How many campaign promises did they make with no intentions of ever coming through?

Hell, how many bills have Thune and Cornyn put in limbo with their ineptitude? Grow a pair and pass laws or GTFO

Yeah I get it. But it's driving me nuts that he's so full of ***** I can't imagine getting pounded in a primary and spouting off like he is. It's incredibly revealing as to who we've been sending to Washington for years and years... And how the GOP seems to want to be all Cornyns and Thunes...

It's $$$. Dude is showing he's willing to be "the opposing" voice to libs. He will give "the conservative" voice on these shows and make millions while trashing the conservative agenda and promoting the MSM narratives.

He's gonna make millions. That's the goal of these folks.

Talk about "I'm taking my ball and going home to write about in my diary".

I should send Cornyn a box of midol with a snicker bar.

Cornyn got smoked by 30 points. There is a reason that Paxton beat him that badly despite the baggage and all the attacks by the Cornyn campaign.

He needs to do some introspection. Cornyn is upset at the wrong person.

It's like when eyepatch got beat in his primary and went on the media circuit blaming Ted Cruz and Michael Berry.

These guys are too arrogant for introspection. If people don't like them it's not their fault, it's the people's fault for being wrong. I smile every time I think about that asshat getting primaried.

ETA: there was a guy here recently saying the GOP didn't properly train their voters after the Paxton win. Such a loser mindset to vote for who you're told by the party and not who actually represents you.
