That's a pretty ridiculous statement. Playing clips of that idiot and his 6 gender crap resonates with republican voters. The dude Is a fraud in every way and the voters know it. If we turnout, it will be a comfortable win for Paxton.

I don't think it really does anymore. This will be decided on gas prices and affordability by independent voters.

hope you are right and I am wrong

this is why the messages about Talarico need to pivot to his stances on economics - destroy O&G and tax tax tax at every opportunity. As much as folks are hurting from current economy, nothing he stands for has ever improved the economy

Mixing in more of that would be nice.

But I can see why the Paxton campaign is hammering away at the woke issues though...because they're more likely to emotionally motivate Republican voters to show up. Paxton doesn't have to create a bunch of new Republican voters in Texas on economics...he just needs current Republican voters to show up on election day.


Of course. You scare the average Republican Voter and scoot it all under the idea of "Woke". Then you condition them to be scared of that word, regardless of whatever idea is actually being discussed, and you don't have to explain anything at all. They can live their little politician lives lying, denouncing, inciting fear, being corrupt, without having to do any real actual work. They just have to teach their followers what (and who) to fear. It keeps us busy arguing with each other about things we have little to no control over.

Tell me, with specificity, what idea is talarico proposing that is actually good but somehow anybody other than his worshippers can't seem to understand that it is actually good?

Thats a lot of words for not saying anything. Just trying to cram as much buzz into a sentence as possible, whether it means anything or not.
Kamala is jealous of that word salad.

Even for a Democrat it's hard to completely fabricate a different personality and belief on a regular basis. The guy has had to lie about a girlfriend, had to eat BBQ, had to lie about trans kids, the border etc etc. that takes a toll on people.

And Jimmy Carter.

It's hilarious the Dems are going to concede this now, functionally, despite 'he's up in all the polls.' This could really have a great national impact, to say nothing of other races such as TX 23 (AK Guy). This is what happens when one nominates the most extreme radicals possible for federal office.

They couldn't even get the guy into mid-October before he had a breakdown? LOLOL.

Just another fine example of the highly qualified candidates we have running to represent us. While I never want a freak like TRally, our choices as a developed country are lacking.

But that said, I SO hope he's off in a corner somewhere sucking his thumb.

This post was good enough for the Where is Talarico thread, so it's good enough for this one.

In the following clip, Talarico is Gene Wilder, the monster is Talarico's new "moderate" views, and Cloris Leachman is Talarico's campaign chief:

Absolutely shocked that a guy that has compared right-leaning Christians to al Qaeda, says God is non-binary, and laments The Bible as dealing with his own "whiteness" is having a mental crisis...

Uuummm, let's see. Who could have predicted that a 38 year old man-child that still lives with Mommy, and has no bank account except Mommy's; and has at least 2 made up girlfriends that have never been seen by anyone live; who's single biggest love seems to be "trans'ing" kids; who pretends to be a divinity student from a Lesbian pastored church that's single biggest focus is Pride events; would have a mental crisis....I mean, who could possibly see that coming?!?!?!?!?!?!

Well, if anyone was worried about Paxton being too stuffy and not showing any sense of humor in this campaign...that can officially be put to rest. Someone clearly convinced him to lean into this.

Not a bad strategy.

They don't have to explain it, because extremists like Talarico make it easy with the crazy positions they've taken and backed up with their words. All Paxton has to do is play the clips and say it's too extreme for Texas. It doesn't require lying or inciting fear...it's simply replaying the words of fringe candidates for the voters to hear.

Now the Democrats lying and inciting fear over false claims about Trump...that's another story.


Woah, youre telling me politicians are liars and manipulators? That's crazy talk!

But as long they say "love your neighbor" and that they aren't taking money from billionaires when they actually are...we should believe them.

making money from the right billionaires …….

So the pedophile ones linked to Epstein are the right ones, but the genius ones building everything and doing stuff in space everybody thought was impossible are the wrong ones?
yep. Haven't paid that close attention to our past senate races, but don't think I have ever seen a commercial accusing the opponent of "bad behavior" while subsequently practicing that exact behavior. It does fit the "accuse your opponent of what you are doing" dem playbook though.

Paxton could push all his chips in and say "I'm be on stage tomorrow in xxxx for a debate. It starts at 7:00 PM".

See who shows up. And in what state.
