11 words. One sentence.

And yet you completely and totally misunderstood every single word.

How is that possible? Are you an anti-Cruzer? Do you support Beto?

And for the record, I do NOT like having my chain yanked. Never held LBJ or Kinky in high esteem. Add Willie to that list. I sincerely wish none of them were associated with Texas. Does that disqualify me from being Texan?

Not at all, in fact I admire your honesty. Texans are free to chose who they like or dislike and I respect their right to do so.

If we lose a senate seat because of Willie then we deserve what we get. Willie may influence some, but they were going to vote democratic anyway. There are some senile democrats that will always vote straight ticket. They bleed blue. Hispanics and other ethnic groups are beginning to wise up and some are switching parties.

Now consider Beto, he is of Irish descent with a Hispanic nickname, and a no nothing record of accomplishments. His only hope is that people will not notice he is pulling their chain to get elected. Cruise must convince these voters ol' Beto is yanking their chain.

Rafael, on the other hand, is of Cuban descent (by way of Canada) and has a proven voting record in the Senate. He is not as despised as many would have us believe. He has to convince them he is not yanking their chain or ours.

"Better that Willie supports a loser like Beto than Senator Cruz."

Then I disagree with that sentence. It would be better if no one supports O'Rourke.

We're not surprised that potheads support him, though. O'Rourke's main message is legalization.

It goes back to the ‘70s, at least.

Sorry that I didn’t see the irony in your comment. Some threads about celebrities have been pretty bad in the past. Celebrities have misled many, and too many have been soft in the head.

At last! A safe place in Texas to not be a Willie fan! I didn’t know if it would be safe for me to “come out” as a non-Willie Texan. ;)

My concern is that Beto has charisma. That seems to sell in this era. There’s nothing charismatic or charming about Cruz. He’s just got the smarts and the conservative creds. Maybe I’m selling Texans (and most of today’s voters) short. Maybe they’re more sober about electing someone who’ll protect America and her founding principles than I give them credit for. We’ll know soon enough. I’ll be white-knuckling it till November 6.

His objectified interview tells me he is your typical hate filled Lefty and has a mean streak, I have no use for him.


Willie’s had it with the man wanting him to pay taxes and harassing him, on his bus, about his pot smoking.

I might buy that if he didn’t sing the praises of Hillary and Bernie.
