[LonePirate]

This ad is amazing as Olson tries to flip this seat that covers the suburbs between Dallas and Ft. Worth.

1. Anybody working to turn Texas blue is alright in my book...

[Zambero]

[MFGsunny]

[Shanti Mama]

4. Love all the implicit messages

She seems really great. I look forward to seeing more.

5. So excellent. Cadet bonespurs you are such a cringing coward.

6. She sounds like a remarkable women. It's too bad she's running in Texas.

I don't really think a woman has a chance in the increasingly cartoonishly hypermacho Lone Star State. The state that elected Anne Richards governor has decayed into a reactionary cesspool of toxic masculinity.

And let's face it: military service, once seen as an inarguable asset for any political candidate, has now become a staggering liability, especially for Democrats. Look how the repukes pissed all over the Vietnam service of Al Gore and John Kerry. They even savaged their own, John McCain, after Cadet Bonespurs said all of those putrid things about veterans, POW's, and sufferers of PTSD.

There once may have been a time when any Republican sneering at the service of any candidate of either party would be denounced in the strongest terms. But now, with Trump-worshipping meth addicts and trailer-dwellers calling the shots in the GOP, anyone with any service under his or her web belt gets smeared against the wall like so much shit.

7. I agree, excellent ad to introduce herself.

She needs to follow up with where she stands on bread and butter issues. imo

12. Oh she will, have no fear!!

she is as awesome as the ad indicates and she has a heart as big as Texas.

8. Sorry, but I'm just not

.....feeling it. It seems all swagger and no policy. What is she going to do for the actual citizens of Texas that distinguishes her from Repugs?

But that's just me. In general, I never feel gung-ho about life-long pentagon types. Also as a National Guard member is she now part of ICE operations of the border?

Does she have anything to say about the children in cages at the border?

9. It's just her introduction and bio. Let her launch then....

Then she will likely get into policy. She’s smart to start with a strong introduction to get her name out and trending.

14. Good to know.

[yellowdogintexas]

11. Yes she has a lot to say about the children at the border

and choice
and Veterans
and health care
and sustainable farming (which she does on her ranch)

If you live in that district, I encourage you to attend an event or two.

I know her fairly well and I think she will be an excellent advocat for her district and all Texans

13. Ok. Thanks.

10. What a hero. What a leader!
