If I was in Texas I'd be checking my voter registration. They are one of those states indiscriminately removing people from them.

Oh no, they're very discriminatory when they do that.

Upon hearing he had a chance, Rep. Colin Allred released a statement saying he would take away all Texan's guns. "That work so well for Beto last time around, I'm sure it will push those on the fence to support me!" he said as every top campaign manager rushed to tackle him to the ground yelling "not on the record, shut up Colin!"

Allred has actually kept pretty quiet, and it's confusing the GOP. Allred just goes around and meets people. It's kinda refreshing.

Sound strategy. Hard to have sound bites for the bigots to use against you if you don't talk too much.

I dunno if his strategy will work in the end, but I don't have to see or hear much from Ted Cruz in the meantime, so I will be happy to have the peace.
