        The second Americans woke up to the FACT that the ONLY problem with our Democracy and our Politics is that too many have been MIA? We started Winning. And repairing the damage. And we wont stop till it's fixed.❤️ When we ALL VOTE - Democracy wins & politics improves! VOTE!

        Dems aren't courting WWC because then they'll win. It is about them being lied to by GOP\Trump, and Dems forgetting how to talk to them. It is part of Dems mission to champion the WC of all stripes. They have just forgotten.

        People forgot too - they forgot that when people absent themselves from the political process? That process fails. When we are ALL awake, switched on & VOTING? We bring politicians back in line - and fast. We can NEVER go MIA again.

        Big Texas needs Dems again. These right wing tea party people are difficult, unyielding and believe hell in a hand basket

        It would be fun to watch pundits squirm trying to convince themselves that it doesn’t matter anyway because everybody knows Texas has always been a blue state.

        Before making predictions in writing, ask yourself (a) if they just might, isn't it possible they just might not? (b) how often have I been right with my predictions in the past? am I just fluffing all of this up?
