  1. He doesn’t need to. He needs to win 2/3 of the small part of the electorate that isn’t strongly partisan. It’s a huge challenge but not insurmountable in a wave election. I mean… that’s what the Crockett’s whisper campaign was attempting, and we can expect the GOP to do the same thing, because key parts of the Democratic coalition in Texas are more genuinely homophobic than the population as a whole. It could be very effective. We’ll see.

  4. Ron Kirk and Royce West are the best black candidates for Texas statewide election in your lifetime and it’s not close. The first lost because of a bad strategy. The second lost because of national Democrats, many of the same people who pushed Roland Gutierrez out of the way for Colin Allred. @Thatguy a few things: I was pretty critical of Talarico here and elsewhere. He’s got a certain level of somber charisma tinged with goofy earnestness, like a young funeral director who just took over the family business. He’s not my idea of a great candidate. But he campaigns and hustles like a madman and isn’t afraid to carry the flag into GOP territory, which is how he won. Jasmine Crockett had all the advantages in the world, and lost this race because her campaign was a dumpster fire. She was badly advised, disorganized and they (because politics is a team sport) simply didn't do the field organizing it takes to win a primary. Fame and national social media influencers aren’t enough to win a Texas Democratic primary. She lost because her campaign wasn’t good enough. The analysis will very likely show that she did quite well with white women, which is the bulk of the white Democratic primary constituency. Where she didn’t do well enough is with Hispanics, and she didn’t because her campaign did almost no outreach or field work. Obama’s team dealt with this in 08, but they did the work to make it competitive. Anyway, as you say he’s more or less identical to Crockett in terms of policy. Both of them are genuinely progressive by Texas standards and neither are by NY standards. For my part that’s not important. What is of enormous national consequence for everyone but especially marginalized communities of all kinds is that Democrats field viable candidates in Texas because of the resources it would divert away from the GOP. For what it’s worth, by far the most cynical thing I saw during this campaign was the whisper campaign conducted by Crockett’s surrogates to spread the rumor in church communities that Talarico is a closeted gay man. I’m glad it didn’t work out. My hope is that Crockett learns some lessons from this and applies them next time, because this race was hers to win if she had just done the basics.

    I like them and I’m glad they are back, but I’m not a typical base Democrat.

    I will never question someone’s faith, but based on my experience as a small business owner- when someone in the trades advertises their Christian faith as a component of their company values, that person will attempt to pick your pocket clean if you aren’t basically camped out at the job site and going over everything as work is being done.
