Texas -- a failed state
No. They don’t. That’s what separates them from Democrats. Texas GOP voters care more about winning races than anything else. That’s why they were able to break the Democrats hold on the state. GOP voters in Texas haven’t gotten lazy yet. They know Paxton is the favorite and can win. They aren’t sure he will and they know if will be expensive to get him there. Hunt, on the other hand, assures them of taking the natural statewide 56-44 break, making the race much cheaper to win, and presents an opportunity to take some black voters from Democrats as well, which then means the GOP could be competitive in local races in urban districts where they otherwise would not be.

No, they aren’t turned off by it. But Hunt gives them everything they want without the baggage and a slam dunk. Plus, the normies will come back for Hunt. GOP primary voters in Texas are very focused on winning and are realistic about liabilities.

Why do you think that Hunt is less terrible than Paxton?
-
Texas -- a failed state
Oh yeah. For two reasons 1) Trump will endorse Hunt if he gets in and Cornyn drops out and 2) Even MAGA understands that Ken Paxton could possibly lose in a mid-term senate race.

Have y’all seen these Wesley Hunt ads, where he’s not campaigning for any particular thing? They are prepping him to step in when/if Cornyn drops out. Wesley Hunt would 100% beat Paxton and win the general. Really hoping Cornyn stays in.

Surveys are horseshit. Demography and social sorting has been screaming it for a decade, backed up by precinct level voting data. And Hispanic erosion in Texas goes back to 2008, but was masked in 2016 by the Clinton’s unique strength with the coin operated political machines in South Texas. And frankly, good riddance to all that.

I think this is likely I completely disagree. Both were well underway and visible in the data, but the Democratic Party wasn’t paying attention to the data and instead was busy huffing out-of-state consultant bullshit about “The Hispanic Vote” and “centering marginalized communities,” but not the marginalized communities that actually power the Democratic voting coalition in the state of Texas.

Right. Just the ones who provide the crucial margin of victory and look on paper exactly like the whites Democrats lost at the same time.- Trump’s America
The Democrat political class is just super blinkered by racial identity politics and has a legion of specialist consultants and go-betweens who make a living by keeping them in the dark. If your primary source of income was telling Democrats how to win “The Hispanic Vote,” would you make a habit of telling them there’s no such thing?- Trump’s America
It won’t, though. The idea that it would is an elite yankee fantasy, much like the existence of The Latino Vote. I’ve been saying this for 20 years and it is the truth: show me a Hispanic person who in other aspects of their lives shares social, geographic, cultural or economic attributes of Republican voters and I’ll show you a Republican.- Elite private schools and college admissions
One thought on this- if you have not had a no-bullshit conversation with your kids about the cost of college and what purpose they are going to college for, you really should.- Elite private schools and college admissions
Senioritis is real. The entire year is a liminal space. Do you know anybody who really loved senior year? I do. It’s people who peaked at 18. Encourage him to do early application if at all possible, lock down the destination and press “cruise control” in December. - What the fuck is wrong with you, Austin?
