31. I have seen NO general election polls where Paxton is the "front runner" against the Democratic nominee in Texas...

Yesterday

and the majority of Texans are even souring on TRUMP at this point.... His endorsement of Paxton may have sealed the deal in the extremist Republican primary, but it isn't exactly a 'plus' for the General Election...

Maybe you forgot what site you are on---
your DEFEATIST post might be more welcome on 'RedState' than here,
and I personally resent it!

If you want to be skeptical , demoralized and defeated personally, then fine--
but I suggest you keep those emotions the fuck to YOURSELF
and not attack Democratic hopes or post things that would tend to demoralize our our party base
more than to help us to win!!!!

If we eventually lose in Texas, THEN you can come back and say
"I TOLD YOU SO"---
but THIS ISN'T the fucking time to be saying it!!

(it MIGHT even be considered a site rules violation by some, under a liberal interpretation
of all the 'party loyalty' rules!)
