    afaik Bannon isn't supporting a primary candidate. I don't think there's a sane enough republican to go against him and there's not a crazy enough far right republican that's funded enough to challenge cruz.

    Now I'm genuinely curious if there's video of how Roy Moore was back in the day.

    Cruz is the only one who Bannon isn't trying to primary.

    Beto race will be interesting. Republicans have done much more poorly among "hold your nose and vote R" suburban whites in the special elections than they did during the general last year.

    Texas lacks a lot of things, but not suburban sprawl.

    Cruz has extremely poor favorability in TX. I don’t think anyone needs Bannon’s support to give him a serious run.

    While true, he isn't a child molester (yet). Texas goes R pretty much to the same degree as any other southern state.

    Texas is only 45% non-hispanic white, but Texas Hispanics have low turnout and I'm sure Cruz's nominal Hispanicness helps him too.

    Cruz was a parli debater, which explains why his style is just to grand stand and make people think he knows his stuff just because he projects really earnest belief.

    True wonks tend to come from policy debate, where you actually craft hypothetical policy proposals and you have to debate the implications of that proposal (the effects of deficit spending, effects on foreign relations, etc.)

    Mexicanos no liko the Cubanos, Ted Cruz actually underperformed among Texas Hispanics relative to white Republicans like George W Bush and Kay Bailey Hutchison.

    the demographics aren't quite there yet but Cruz's taco bell-tier Spanish coming out in a corruption of an already ghastly island accent will not save him if a Mexican or Mexican-friendly Democratic challenges him in 2024 or 2030.

    I assume you aren't buying that the House rep from El Paso with an Irish last name is cutting it as "Mexican-friendly?"

    How the fuck did Beto successfully primary a Mexican democratic incumbent in that El Paso house district that is 79%!!! Hispanic anyway?

    Since I don't know shit about law, any possible chance of the states threatening lawsuits against the FCC will make anything happen?

    Being married to puerto rican (And her family) this is the truth. Except for the hating puerto rican thing. Replace that with mexicans.

    Being a Puerto Rican I can tell you that the only thing we hate about Mexicans is people who think we are the same thing and speak the same language.
