Talarico doing well with latinos and gets 9% of Trump voters.

“Talarico has highlighted how absurd it is for Paxton (“Were shame enough to shame thee, wert thou not shameless”)—who has a long trail of corrupt and adulterous conduct—to criticize the manhood of others.”

1. I Find it Shocking That the Race is Even Close!

You've got a repeat lying criminal desperate for even more undeserved power and totally out for himself running against an upstanding citizen who actually has and demonstrates principles and knows what the word "constituency" means. Of course an unspeakable number of offspring (likely more than a few inbred) of "them immigrants" from, say 4 or 5 generations back, wanting to pull up the bridge now, put a similarly corrupt and self-serving "Me, Me, Me" teevee sock-puppet in the White House twice!

3. sigh.....the problem with Texas is it's full of Texans

Paxton is pond scum but he'll win because.....Texass.

6. It's True, That's Where the Term "Shit-heeler" Originated, from What I Know

If only they kept it to their heels. Or even below their necks.

2. I saw a poll on CNN with Paxton and Talarico tied at 47% each today

I have to admit that was depressing. But it's TX. The same poll showed Talarico polling way ahead on ethics or morality and way ahead with Independents.

4. hard to believe Paxton's tied

such a crap human being

10. Talarico is being swiftboated. They're also saying he loves little trans kids and he's a satanist.

Talarico literally said that he loves trans kids....So, there's that..... They have it on video. He said it in an interview a few years ago.

Of course subject to interpretation..........


And their interpretation isn't plutonic love or admiring trans kids for standing up for their rights...it's the "love-love". like in-bed love.....if you know what I mean...

5. He's got the blacks as well.....................

7. Such a fine young man

I would be a shame if he doesn't win. I have donated twice to his campaign. WTF is wrong with Texas? Paxton really??

8. Remember John Kerry?

Talarico is being swiftboated.

I knew this would happen.

9. THIS is one of the reasons I supported Talarico over Jasmine Crockett in the primary.

Her style was a winner with Dems, but off-putting for swing voters, independents, and Trump voters. To win in Texas, you have to make inroads into all those groups.
