    Democratic donors set sights on Texas

    The CA progressives screwed up CA and are now moving east, their next big target is Texas!


    Big Democratic donors are setting their sights on Texas amid expectations that it might be up for grabs as early as the 2016 US presidential election because of its rapidly changing demographics, potentially creating a Texas-sized problem for the Republican party.

    Steve Mostyn, the Texan trial lawyer who was one of Barack Obama’s biggest financial supporters in 2012, said it was not only wealthy Texas donors who were intent on turning the red Lone Star state blue. For the first time, rich Democrats across the country were ready to begin pouring money in to try to create the kind of organisation and political infrastructure that the Obama campaign machine built in battleground states like Ohio.

    If the majority of Texans are as stupid as the majority of Californians there will be no hope.

    10 years from now the Majority will be stupid.
    Winning may not be everything, but the endorsements are better.

    Wouldn't be surprised to see Bloomberg's ass follow suit...

    Hopefully the traditional Texans can push these assholes out.

    Im no one, but I know some people personally who are in the very wealthy category; like the sort that donate in the 7 figures range...not one of them donated to that banana breath's campaign. So hopefully there are enough financially blessed on the Right to combat this.

    If Texas goes blue, then the country is lost. Immigration is slowly making this happen, but I think our country's economy will collapse before that happens.

    Living in the Republik of Illinois, I view Texas as the last stand state. Lose Texas, there is no where else to go...

    Texas is turning into the next California sooner that we thought. Texas has been Californiated.

    Agreed. Houston - the city and politicians was gone a bit ago. Over the last several years Dallas like most metropolitan areas has gone that direction.

    Having family and friends around those two areas and the sheer volume of gun owners in the suburbs and rural areas still give me some hope.

    The Dems have been focusing on Texas for a little while now.

    Thumbs up

    And yesterday at the polls... they failed miserably.

    On the BRIGHT side, they whizzed away a LOTTA money, in accomplishing nothing!
