Debate scheduling update. Beto responded proposing they change one to El Paso and not do two of them on Friday night when Texans are watching football. Cruz camp says the debate plan is not up for negotiation. Will be interesting to see how it plays out.

Well, it Beto does not give in then Rafael will claim that Beto was afraid to debate him, which is of course total bullshit.  But the Trumpkins will lap it up.  Stupid fucks.

“We still have a lot to worry about. Everyone knows we have a real election on our hands,” Cruz said at the Underwood’s campaign stop. “This is a divided and polarized time in our country and the far left are energized. They’re angry. Many of them hate our president." ----- Ted Cruz at Underwoods yesterday

 

"I'm going to tell you what I really think of Donald Trump. This man is a pathological liar. He doesn't know the difference between truth and lies. He lies practically   every word that comes out of his mouth. And in a pattern that I think is straight out of a psychology textbook, his response is to accuse everybody else of lying.

He accuses everybody on that debate stage of lying. And it's simply a mindless yell. Whatever he does, he accuses everyone else of doing. The man cannot tell the truth, but he combines it with being a narcissist. A narcissist at a level I don't think this country has ever seen

Donald Trump is such a narcissist that Barack Obama looks at him and goes, 'Dude, what's your problem?' Everything in Donald's world is about Donald. And he combines being a pathological liar, and I say pathological because I actually think Donald, if you hooked him up to a lie detector test, he could say one thing in the morning, one thing at noon and one thing in the evening, all contradictory and he's pass the lie detector test each time. Whatever lie he's telling, at that minute he believes it.

The man is utterly amoral. Morality does not exist for him. It's why he went after Heidi directly and smeared my wife, attacked her. Apparently she's not pretty enough for Donald Trump. I may be biased, but I think if he's making that allegation, he's also legally blind.

Every one of us knew bullies in elementary school. Bullies don't come from strength, bullies come from weakness. Bullies come from a deep, yawning cavern of insecurity. There is a reason Donald builds giant buildings and puts his name on them everywhere he goes.

And I will say there are millions of people in this country who are angry. They're angry at Washington, they're angry at politicians who have lied to them. I understand that anger. I share that anger. And Donald is cynically exploiting that anger, and he is lying to his supporters. Donald will betray his supporters on every issue.

If you care about immigration, Donald is laughing at you. And he's telling the moneyed elites he doesn't believe what he's saying. He's not going to build a wall. That's what he told The New York Times. He will betray you on every issue across the board. And his strategy of being a bully in particular is directed at women. Donald has a real problem with women."  ----- Ted Cruz on Donald Trump, 2016

 
Needs to be on leaflets and circulated outside every Cruz rally.  Of course, his supporters will call it fake, so nevermind.

Trumpkins will never vote for Beto, so they don’t matter.  

The moderates and undecided though, they aren’t all stupid (otherwise they’d be Trumpkins).  They know the game Cruz is trying to play in burying the debates.  They watched Perry do it multiple times.

Does anyone know of a reputable organization that helps people get photo IDs so they can vote in Texas? Is there even such a thing? I'd like to volunteer for something like this in the months heading into the election. I don't have a ton of bandwidth right now and I feel like this is an area where my time would be most valuable. Or if anyone has better ideas I'd love to hear them (keeping in mind that I already volunteer with Beto's campaign).

Don’t need one:
http://www.votetexas.gov/mobile/id-faqs.htm


Here is a list of the supporting forms of ID that can be presented if the voter does not possess one of the forms of acceptable photo ID and cannot reasonably obtain one:

copy or original of a government document that shows the voter’s name and an address, including the voter’s voter registration certificate;
copy of or original current utility bill;
copy of or original bank statement;
copy of or original government check;
copy of or original paycheck; or
copy of or original of (a) a certified domestic (from a U.S. state or territory) birth certificate or (b) a document confirming birth admissible in a court of law which establishes the voter’s identity (which may include a foreign birth document).
After presenting one of the forms of supporting ID listed above, the voter must execute a Reasonable Impediment Declaration.

Tough as Texas is the opposite of how I think of Cruz.  I get that they repeat it enough, it may take off but I can’t imagine anyone would have described Cruz as tough.

When a feller feels obligated to go on all day about how tough he is, the maybe, quite possibly, he's somethin other than tough.

You look at the Cruz crowd then the Beto crowd and you can see it coming. The white olds die and this state is Blue.

Unfortunately, the current Beto supporting white folks will also become old and scared shitless of everything and will shift right. Hopefully in smaller numbers, but just sayin'.

Wore my Beto shirt at the fancy 2 story HEB in Bellaire. Got some side eyes from the olds but one old lady did say she liked my shirt. I think it’s because I got something off the top shelf for her
