        GOP should be worried about Texas. Beto is to the right of Trump on trade, not a ghost on checks & balances like Cruz, and not alt-right on immigration like Trump. Beto's got this life-long conservative's vote in November

        While I don’t live in Texas this conservative won’t be voting with Republicans either. If they don’t do the job we elected them to do then they must go

        If Ted Cruz wins, Texas loses. The good people of Texas deserve better than lying Ted Cruz!

        He must win. Democrats must stop celebrating moral victories in defeat. We must find a way to reach across and earn the support of others so we win. Please, no more participation trophies!

        Well, damn. I agree, I don’t see him winning—but he does have a lot of appeal and yeah, I’m worried.

        Worry is o.k., but it is time for despair...and a Cruz defeat will provide this.

        The factor you mentioned here is working against Marsha Blackburn in TN. Solid chance Phil Bredesen beats her for some of the same reasons. As you said, so many young conservatives I know, particularly women, are abandoning the GOP in droves.pic.twitter.com/moyf8PpXfk

        Great article Matt. I too would rather have a beer or spend a day fishing with Beto.....imagine and afternoon on a boat with Cruz.... shudder.

        Nope. If Cruz wins, the GOP will learn nothing. The only thing that will work is prolonged defeat.

        It's a difficult hill to climb in Texas, especially in a midterm year. Beto could do exceedingly well and still lose.
