Democratic National Committee Expands Presence in Texas

Texas is set to become the fourth state participating in the DNC's Victory Leaders Council program, which establishes groups of prominent state Democrats to work directly with the party operation in Washington.
.
.
Clinton's running mate, Tim Kaine, spent two days in the state last week, holding a Houston rally in which he declared that he and Clinton "take Texas very seriously."
.

Texas Republicans have derided initiatives like the DNC's as superficial efforts to make the state look more competitive than it really is. On Wednesday, the state party responded to the Texas Victory Leaders Council by saying the DNC was teaming up with "some of Texas' most corrupt Democrat politicians."

"The fact that someone like State Rep. Dawnna Dukes, who is currently under criminal investigation and retiring even while on the ballot this year, or State Rep. Ron Reynolds, a convicted criminal who’s been sentenced to a year in prison, are included on this list tells you everything you need to know about the values of Democratic leadership," Texas GOP spokesman Michael Joyce said in a statement.

The Texas Democrat Party is a nest of Communists at the universities and newspapers combined with crooks of every ethnic group in the state. The chief champion of killing God’s babies and selling their body parts, Cecile Richards, is the daughter of the late, not great, Gov. Ann Richards. We are not proud of having these evil citizens in our state.

Sure! Why not? It’s almost votin’ time and they need to establish and illegal voting coordinating clearing house to direct where the illegal voting has to happen to be most effective. Makes sense if you’re a crook....

Democratic National Committee Expanding its Presence in Texas--- means Obama has not given up on his vainglorious pipe dream to turn Texas Democrat.

Texas GOP spokesman Michael Joyce commenting on the Texas DNC Leaders' Council: "That Texas State Rep. Dawnna Dukes, currently under criminal investigation and retiring even while on the 2016 ballot, or that Texas State Rep. Ron Reynolds, a convicted criminal, sentenced to a year in prison, are included on the DNC Leaders' list tells you everything you need to know about the values of Democratic leadership."

================================================

Incidentally, Hillary has nominated her Texas relative to the Democrat council.

Bless your heart, Shiela. Why, if stupidity were illegal, you’d be doing consecutive life terms.

Shiela’s constituents would be better served by a Magic 8 Ball.

The Democrats want to flip Texas in a cycle or two, but they won’t flip Texas that soon.

I’m afraid if these socialists ever get their organization shored up, they will become the TX majority.

If they don't stop the invasion they will be Mexico Norte.
