There were signs

My former mother-in-law was from Towson, Maryland. This looks like something she would make then pass off as brisket. Props to her on some pretty mean crab cakes though. Yankees just need to stay in their lane on certain things; brisket being one of them. Obviously, the sign here was that Cornyn spent a lot of time in DC and completely forgot he was representing Texans. We're better off now that he's gone.

Who here hasn't had brisket covered in tomato sauce served in a glass dish?

Well, I won't vote for a D, but I'm not going to vote for French PAXTON either. He's a disgusting POS.

James Talarico thanks you for your support.

Let's just hope the posters saying this are just grandstanding for a message board and when it's time to vote, they hold their nose and vote for Paxton because the alternative is absolutely devastating for Texas.

To this day I will never understand why conservatives/Republicans do this. It's so ****ing stupid. It's beyond stupid. It's petulant and childish. You're not teaching anyone a lesson.
Be an adult. You have two choices. You have to pick the least evil choice. It's not the perfect choice, but it's the best choice. Otherwise you turn our country over to the savages of the left.
****ing grow up!

THIS!!!

The way Republicans became a minority party was by nominating John McCain in 2008 and then following it up with Mitt Romney in 2012. Only appealed to people who wanted More Establishment politics. Shrunk the base. Republican party was totally dependent on Democrats not showing… https://t.co/BuQV79fkf5 pic.twitter.com/M7UJ54cELU

My enmity toward Cornyn has not decreased with his 'exit stage left' theatrics.

Cruz didn't even campaign, and still beat Beto and the MSM, who either directly or tacitly supported him.

Mitt and McCain were both liberal R's. As is Trump. But Trump has a yuge personality that a lot of people, even Dems (he won over unions, etc) liked. Paxton is a giant POS but Talarico is a gay, weirdo progressive/commie. While both are horrible. One is horribler, and then there's Paxton.

Doesn't a "diaspora" imply they want to go home?

Cornyn should not be expected to help fundraise. Lame duck senators have no ability to coerce donations and DJT's super pac in sitting on an immense war chest. Time for DJT to write a bug check for his preferred candidate

I don't expect him to because he's bitter and a fake conservative. He is such a bad candidate he was rejected by the voters as an entrenched incumbent.

So you are voting for Talarico, you just don't have the balls to admit it or somehow think you aren't doing so when you are.

I always wonder how people that think this can justify it in their heads. But then again, these are the same types of people that will cry about "character" when talking about Paxton, but have absolutely zero issue ushering a dude in that dreams of trans kids, loves to hang out with drag queens and thinks God has told him there are 6 genders. Among a whole lot of other things that should absolutely raise the red flag on "character".

Cornyn has definitely shown himself to be a bitter loser. He absolutely knows what it means for the country as a whole if one of the Senate seats in Texas turns blue. POS.
