RNC foaming at mouth hoping they convince the DNC that Texas is in play and therefor dump SuperPAC money in to support Talarico.
Every penny spent on Texas is not spent in NH, NC, Michigan, etc.

I'm not sure why he continues to give Texans reasons to vote against him. He repeatedly demonstrates how oblivious he is to reality.
Ken Paxton’s billionaire handlers won’t let him answer questions in public. It’s why he hasn’t debated in over a decade.

But I want him to prove me wrong.

Debates should be a legal requirement.
I am planning on voting for Paxton... but if he dodges these debates I might sit out this election like I plan to do with Greg Abbot and the GOP congresswomen who represents me with an Israel flag outside her office in DC

The problem with debates is that they cannot win you an election - but they can lose you an election.
