The belief in her as a viable candidate for anything greater than the house is on par with that fuckin idiot wulaw’s cfp claim on the football board.

Not her best idea doing this. She won’t win the primary and she’ll just be wasting Talarico’s time having to focus on her in this primary. Democrats seem to have terminal bad decision disease.

Should she be the Dem nominee, I think the result is going to depend on how desperate people are come November. We just saw a gigantic swing in Miami, where the mayor has been a Republican for 28 years. 

She's going to have to run an exceptionally tight, smart campaign. No gaffes like Beto saying he would take your guns or whatever it was he said, but I don't think it's impossible. We could see a gigantic Latino/Hispanic swing next year, who knows?

I have an uncle that'd have a coronary if she won the seat. He's not particularly religious nor does he seem to care about Maga from what I can gather, but Crockett is a no go for him.

Wulaw also thought that Dodgers getting Ohtani for the price they paid was a bad decision. He's like an older Helo.

Interesting-  apparently the NRSC ran a bunch of push polls and robocalls to push Crockett into the race. 
Smart.

But the Republican efforts didn’t stop there. In what the source dubbed an “AstroTurf recruitment process,” the NRSC had “allies that were seeding these new polls pretty aggressively into progressive digital spaces.”

There were several recruitment phone calls and text messages that went out to Democrats and high-propensity voters across the state that would urge voters to contact and advocate for Crockett to join the race, the source said.

I’m glad she’s running. Primaries are good. If Talarico can beat her he’ll be in a much stronger position against whoever.

I'm just totally befuddled that this board has defaulted into a position that Talarico's candidacy is hindered by having a primary opponent.  

No one was claiming he was doomed running against charisma vacuum Allred.  Presumably surly would believe competition good in other arenas...

It’s classic Democrat brain.

I feel primary challengers are good in normal times and in states that are not like Texas. Talarico gains nothing by having to make his case against Congresswoman Crockett.

Why not?  Texas has 4 million or so African Americans, at least half of whom are voting age, and Crockett looks and sounds far more like them than Talarico does.  You think he’s entitled to their vote just because Cornyn is awful in the kitchen and Paxton is a felon in a just universe?  

I bet of those 2.3 million (old data, 2015 census), maybe 10% could even name who is running and Talarico needs help getting his name out.  
 

Who would you rather he be facing in the primary?
