That definitely should be on the list. Also, with his legal background he can independently write legislation

In retrospect it was bone headed. I suspect it was personal because of the attack on his dad.

They're imploding and don't have the thought processing functionality to understand why, and cannot stop themselves from making just one more cut, just one more cut, just one more cut.

The ones that do understand refuse to be endorsed by any leading democrat.

Wait a minute ................... be right back ......................... gott'a pop some more corn.

We all know how Trump fights: If you hit him. He hits back.

Throughout history Texas has had 28 democrat senators to only six republican senators. It’s good to remember that history and recall that many Texas seniors have probably voted Democrat at one point or another.

The Democrat party of decades past is a mere blip in the rear view mirror of today's Democrat party.

Texas Senate candidate Beto O’Rourke is looking more and more like loser Georgia candidate John Ossoff.

Ossoff was blanketed with Democrat money ....and Hollywood ponied up big bucks ....all of them salivating over dreams of a southern seat in Congress.

One of the know-nothing Black Congressional Caucus members said Ossoff was "another Kennedy." This triggered Ossoff bigtime.

He kept saying he lived in a "compound," his girlfriend's name was Jackie, and ordered Boston clam
chowdah in Georgia tea rooms........while every decent Southerner was enjoying peach cobbler.

Brady: Cruz being primaried out was as likely as McCain losing his nominations. Flake didn’t have the stature to withstand the onslaught and Cruz has made quite a name for himself in the last 6 years. As for Beto I’m convinced the Republicans were playing possum, acting like this pretty boy had a real chance and knowing the rich Hollywood types would pour in big money-wasted. Pretty smart wouldn’t you think?

I think you are right in terms of patriotism. However, Johnson’s great society is just modern slavery. It has destroyed black families the same way real slavery did in the past— separating parents from each other and from the kids. That came out of texas Democrats

Good to hear Cruz has a solid lead. But we can’t be complacent! Remember November 8, 2016 and VOTE on November 6, 2018!

Exactly. The only polling number that counts is the post election one.

Go Vote!

So much money obtained by one Demonicrat can’t be all that clean. But the fifth-column leftist media will look as closely on that as they did on the corrupt funds of the Clinton Foundation.

On Texas ballots, there's a place where you can vote straight party line. That's what I intend to do.

I used to be a "man, not party" sort of guy. However, the Democrats want me and my family DEAD. Screw 'em.

Too bad so many Freepers can't get over the hotly contested primary Cruz ran .

They are like teenage girls holding a grudge fighting over a guy...

Beto is a charmer and schmoozer of empty words and feel good platitudes. He claims he wants to represent All Texans independently in DC. Longhorn bovine excrement. Beto will be just another donkey confined to his stall in Schmucky Schumers barn of Alinsky DemRats. I’m eager to vote against him.

Why are the national Democrats so obsessed with knocking off Cruz more than anyone else?

Because at some point Cruz will make a move into national politics or be picked for an important administration position...

Think about it....Trump picks Cruz for AG....

The dem fear and loathing would be epic...

“However, the Democrats want me and my family DEAD.”

I think they’d settle with torturing us until we renounce God, capitalism, and agree to let them have our daughters as sex toys.

But I’m glad people on our side are finally coming around to understand just who they are and just how evil they are. I learned just who they are decades ago in college (at ESU), when they put on a teach-in that I quietly attended. They were DEAD SERIOUS about their plans for a Communist revolution and made it clear that it was not possible until they had their people elected to the necessary political positions. Hillary would have completed that task. After that teach-in, I NEVER considered voting for a Democrat in federal elections (in state elections, I did sometimes vote Democrat in the past, because Rick Perry and his Rubber Stamp Republicans were flooding Texas with toll roads).

The Democrats are usually pretty good at hiding just who they are and what they want to do to this country, but got very sloppy with Kavanaugh, and now have been set back DECADES, if we can do well next month.

At this point, pretty much each election we win (providing we don’t lose any in between) means yet ANOTHER GENERATION will get to live in the country we grew up in. With Trump, our generation (i.e., people 50+, apologies if you’re younger) will likely get to live out our lives in this great country. Win next month, it’s our kids. Win in 2020, it’s our grandkids. It’s that important.

Oh, and by the way, I don’t think we have straight-ticket voting in Texas anymore - it was done away with to make it a bit harder for the inner city ballot stuffers to affect down-ticket races.

Cruz will easily win by double digits.
