05.03.2026 02:26 β π 10 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0yeah, agree. like, i can see a world where that tips the scale a little in cornyn's favor. but before that announcement the fact that hunt voters were a lot more like paxton voters should have made him the favorite. and the atlantic report shouldn't affect odds THAT dramatically.

Both Olipop ***and*** Poppi have just both come out with new Shirley Temple flavors.

The first thing Rs are gonna have to do is give Wes Hunt something to endorse C, and they are gonna have to turn off that flamethrower theyβve been directing his way.
04.03.2026 21:27 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0You are right on all of this but we have been living the Paxton nightmare for an eternity and it is just incredibly hard to imagine him dropping out in time to consolidate Rs
04.03.2026 21:25 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 2 π 0Ok but in the republican primary Iβm going to root for the candidate that will be easier to beat and I assume that is straightforward

04.03.2026 17:40 β π 8 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Ds should be rooting for Paxton and itβs not close. He is a terrible ca sister in a high salience election, and he has tons of baggage. In a D wave year a race against him is winnable. Against cornyn it is not. Control of senate hangs in the balance.

FWIW this is not in fact representative of what "local organizers" are saying. Like at all.
What in the hell is this even?
Nor was it "style over substance." Unless "HAVING A CAMPAIGN OPERATION THAT FUNCTIONS IN THE STATE'S DEMOCRATIC ECOSYSTEM" is "style."
WTF Intercept?

Yeah if you ask how otherwise decent people talk themselves into aligning with a Monster (Trump), look no further than the stories some fragments of the left tell themselves about how this is ok.
In fact, no, you too are the baddie, and will sacrifice any principle for power.
Excited to hear that! Heβs coming to visit us in March!
