It's like let's not overcomplicate this.

Ken Paxton is a man who is an absolute crook, a serial adulterer, a fucking lunatic.

And he's terrible at raising money.

Nice.

Checking.

They're all the way to the left.

But Paxton is such a perfect foil for Tallarico.

This nice, thoughtful guy who talks about his religion, is faithful.

They're the exact opposite of each other, and that really helps Tallarico in a way that it's not just Republican-Democrats, like a good person and a bad person, and that is going to help Tallarico.

We can pretend like Cornyn because he sucks as a politician and isn't very good on the stump and is kind of a...

He puts on a cowboy hat every year for an ad and he looks fucking ridiculous in it.

It looks like it's basically photoshopped on his head.

But Paxton, running against Paxton is way better for Tallarico than Cornyn.

But think about how close Beto came to beating Ted Cruz.

I think on all three measures, this is better for Tallarico than it was for Beto.

And Beto came within three points.

But now those last three points, that is a long fucking mile to cross in Texas.

If anyone can do it, it is James Tallarico right now in this environment against Ken Paxton.

You'll have more to say, I hope.

This is so fittingly stupid.
