  1. So vote for Talarico. But if she’s truly that bad of a candidate and Talarico/his surrogates can’t make the case, how could he possibly be expected to run a good campaign in a general election? I don’t know how else I can say this is not in the best interests of Texas Democrats. Clearing the field for low profile candidates who are perceived to be the most electable doesn’t help and has literally never worked for a Democrat in this state.
  2. One must imagine Sisyphus happy Wordle 1,636 3/6 🟨⬜⬜⬜🟨 ⬜⬜⬜⬜⬜ 🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩
  3. Sigh. Yes, as anyone can infer from my posts I am well aware that Deloitte audits financial statements and does not duplicate the work of the city Auditor. Jesus you people. Go fucking volunteer for something and serve the public. you'll learn something.
  4. And not for nothing. she needs it too. Absolutely I do! Nothing could be more important than Democrats getting attention as alternatives. Which they cannot do without spectacle. What would you have them do otherwise? Write editorials and put out position papers? There is no day but today and no world but what we make. Sack up, pick one, throw them some dollars, and be prepared to vote for the other if you need to.
  5. Except attention, community exposure, a raised profile in the general electorate, money, at-bats, learning to win, etc. And she gains the same from him. Remember- other than political junkies not many people know either of them. Not picking on you because that’s the conventional wisdom, but let me turn the idea around- why would a compelling, high contrast race between two good candidates who are very different from each other be bad?
  6. Dear God no! Not the BRIAR PATCH! - Democrats
  7. The mayor is welcome to his opinion. The mayor also got behind moving 130 east from its originally proposed location as a 35 bypass when the politics were pushed that way. Lotta money to be made on an external audit (other than the annual financial one Deloitte does already which of course, you all have read).
  8. The city auditors office in Austin does a good job. It’s funny how, in every city in America, all the sharp pencil boys who never spent a minute near city hall will always point to the work of city auditors offices to justify external consultant giveaways.
  9. Also, it never ceases to amaze me that grown people still talk shit about work at work events.
  10. They would!* And Austin Energy is audited, just as every other enterprise is, and the auditors found this among other things. *unless they were problematic and couldn’t hire auditor. Dude.
  11. Tell me you’re unfamiliar with expense report handling in large organizations without telling me you’re unfamiliar with expense report handing in large organizations.
  12. It’s classic Democrat brain.
  13. Obstreperous, ridiculous, outrageous!
  14. I’m glad she’s running. Primaries are good. If Talarico can beat her he’ll be in a much stronger position against whoever.
  15. Interesting- apparently the NRSC ran a bunch of push polls and robocalls to push Crockett into the race. Smart.
  16. Pure fantasy. The truth is far sadder but also boring: Austin isn’t corrupt. It’s just dumb, because the people don’t care.
  17. Agree Strongly disagree. That’s not a strawman. But, by “you people” do you mean people who know what they are talking about? Dude, Austin has all kinds of problems, but is no more administratively “wasteful” than any complex, comparably sized enterprise. The policy side is a big problem, but that’s because nobody good runs for office and in general our citizen are indifferent about it.
  18. Well it was found, that’s good. Do you think private utilities (or private companies in general) have better expense controls in place?
  19. Do you think the city needs an independent audit?
  20. My friend, you are only making this worse. Stop digging.
  21. That’s why getting first round picks in return is so important. Goddamn Nico left the cupboard bare
