It's an internet poll, so maybe there's hope. Kesha Rogers is the Obama = Hitler perennial candidate. David Alameel is a multimillionaire who's helped bankroll candidates such as McConnell and Cornyn himself. What the hell is going on in Texas?

Oh, right.

Isn't Scherr the only one who isn't completely insane?

Texas: It's so bad that only 1 out of 5 candidates in the primary isn't a total nut. And that's the Democratic primary, of course all the Republicans are nuts.

[windjammer]

Well, I hope it will be Domina.

Harry Kim may be a nobody but he's not 'insane.' Nor is Alameel, despite his unfortunate donations to Republicans, that doesn't make him 'insane.' So, 3 out of 5

?? There is nobody named Domina in the race.

[windjammer]

Oups, Alameel I wanted to say. Just because he has cash and he will be able to troll TX republicans with his money.

This poll excluded all undecideds. According to the full results, on this particular question 74% expressed no opinion. So it's more like Rogers 9% Alameel 7%. Alameel has far more money than Rogers and will surely outperform her in the primary.

No-one has mentioned the Republican half of this poll: Cornyn 62% Stockman 16% Vega 7% Stovall 4% Cope 4% Reasor 3% Mapp 3% Cleaver 1%. Not much appetite for turtle soup.

However, undecideds were excluded, and on this question 33% expressed no opinion. So reallocating it's more like Cornyn 42% Stockman 11%. Not quite out of danger.

As long as the Larouchebag or the Republican don't win, I'm fine.

[SUSAN CRUSHBONE]

I'm still rooting for Tuvok.

If Kesha Rogers actually wins the nomination, TX Dems are even dumber than TX Republicans.

[Vosem]

Rogers v. Stockman would be a Senate race for the ages.

Rogers v. Stockman would be a Senate race for the ages.

As disgusting as it is to say, I'd support Stockman

She won't. Calm down.

Well, she's done it twice now. Apparently Texas Democrats don't even bother a quick google search on their candidates before they vote.

Why?

Why?

Because the LaRouchites are a literal cult and having an elected office would give them credence. I wouldn't want a LaRouchite elected dog catcher.

Stockman's crazy, but that's practically Generic R these days.

[badgate]

For the record the district she ran in is R+15 and has only about 14,000 Democratic primary voters. The Democrats in this area are probably conservative, and she only won the primary by narrow margins both times; in 2012, by only 103 votes.

When she ran for Congress the state party tried to get her to disavow the LaRouche movement (before she made Obama's impeachment an issue in her campaigns) and cut ties in 2010 after she didn't leave the LaRouchites.

Rogers v. Stockman would be a Senate race for the ages.

Hopefully Dwayne Stovall's golden retriever could mount an Indie run.

I have a hard time envisioning Wendy Davis winning the governor's race when her party can't drive out enough voters to keep an unabashed member of a Stalinist cult off their ballot line for a major statewide office.  Embarrassing...

[Joshgreen]

I just realized Kesha was the nominee for District 22 HOR last year. No wonder Davis really has no chance.

I get the impression you're being facetious...do you disagree that a LaRouchite competing this strongly for a major ballot line despite the vocal objections of the TXDP is indicative of weak organization that will ultimately damage Davis' already long chances? Remember, she is pitted against well funded, supremely organized GOP machine in Texas and the people in her corner are having trouble with Lyndon LaRouche disciples...it doesn't inspire a lot of confidence.

While it's funny and tempting to draw conclusions from this, it's about as relevant as Obama's 2008 primary performance in West Virginia doomed Jay Rockefeller's chances at reelection.
