Retire Cruz to Cancun!
Even if Trump wins Texas, I’ll still consider it a win if the good ol’ Texans can vote Cruz out of office.
It would be an epic upset, but I am not holding my breath…
That’s great news! Allred has a strong chance to beat Cruz.
I just donated a few bucks to Allred’s campaign. Let’s turn Texas blue, y’all.
I hope that he does.
Texans, show up, make sure they see that their gerrymandering and voter suppression isn’t absolute and you do have a voice that they cannot silence.
Ted Cruz, Colin Allred virtually tied in race for U.S. Senate, according to new poll
https://www.wfaa.com/article/news/politics/ted-cruz-colin-allred-poll-results-texas-us-senate-race-election/287-e11369f6-de65-4178-ac62-c5bc525e5c8f
Allred and Cruz will meet face-to-face in their first, and perhaps only, debate on October 15 at 7:00 p.m. at WFAA’s studios in downtown Dallas.
Imagine a world without both Trump and Cruz in the spotlight.
What a wonderful world it would be.
I see conservatives calling for term limits occasionally, but I guess they just mean term limits for Democrats.
Cruz’s sheer unlikeability, his self serving nature, his damn near uselessness and disregard for his constituents, speaks to the blind, partisan allegiance of conservatives who continue to vote for the guy.
All he does is pander to the culture warriors on Twitter with fearmongering propaganda every election cycle.
> I like Ted Cruz more than most of my other colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz.
— Al Franken
> One thing Ted Cruz is really good at: uniting people who otherwise disagree about everything else in a total hatred of Ted Cruz
> Ted Cruz is a nightmare of a human being. I have plenty of problems with his politics, but truthfully his personality is so awful that 99 percent of why I hate him is just his personality. If he agreed with me on every issue, I would hate him only one percent less.
— Craig Mazin, former college roommate (Also “Chernobyl” TV show creator)
> Lucifer in the flesh
> I have Democrat friends and Republican friends. I get along with almost everyone, but I have never worked with a more miserable son of a bitch in my life.
— John Boehner
> If you killed Ted Cruz on the floor of the Senate, and the trial was in the Senate, nobody would convict you
— Lindsey Graham of all people.
> I hate Ted Cruz, and I think I’ll take cyanide if he ever got the nomination
— Peter King
> He’s a nasty guy. Nobody likes him. Nobody in Congress likes him. Nobody likes him anywhere once they get to know him.
— Donald Trump
> Everybody who knows him in the Senate hates him. And I think hate is not an exaggeration.
> Cruz is a sleazy, Rovian liar
— Conservative Columnists
> Cruz is an army of one, alienating anybody who is in his path. He advocates losing strategies purely to further his own career at the expense of the party.
— Former staffer
> There are not that many people in my life who I can think of who I didn’t actually have extensive interactions with who bring up such bad feelings.
> He was just sort of an odious figure lurking around.
— Former Princeton classmates
NFL fans, if Texas flips, let’s all just admit it was a catch.
Cmon Texans. Let’s flip this bitch blue 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
Here’s the full interview that appears in clips on this post:
WFAA – [Liz Cheney, Colin Allred sit down after Cheney endorsed the Democrat for Senate](https://youtu.be/7fHBoqFyOBE) (12:47)
I posted the transcript [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/TexasPolitics/s/CuNRXKm7LB).
That seems like a race worth dumping some money into.
*Please* do win, Allred! Cruz deserves to be *run* out of town this time, instead of slinking away like a coward.
And if TX then flips blue altogether, all the better!
We hope so, Mr. Allred. We truly do.
What a great pickup this would be for the Democrats! F Cruz!
Cruz must go
I hope he does, I’ll be voting for him. I can’t get my stupid House rep out because they gerrymandered my district, but hopefully I can help finally get rid of Cruz.
Texas has the chance to do the funniest thing ever.
I’ve been voting to get rid of Ted Cruz for over a decade. At this point I’d vote for a crate of rotten apples. I’m happy to see we’ve still got momentum to get rid of that shit head cruz.
I don’t understand how someone as unlikable as Cruz ever got elected in the first place. Surely someone with a little bit of charm could spout the same bullshit?
Never a good strategy to affirm a win as people may just believe you and stay home without actually voting…
Are they talking about Rafael “Cancun” Cruz?
This is one of the races democrats desperately need to win. Slimy dick-tater worshipper that runs away to Cancun everytime there’s a crisis needs to be kicked out of political office.
