They are cynically willing to pretend not to be racists to use Minority Tool freaks but they've got their ABBOTT, so they don't need WEST, besides that he screwed himself with them. He can't draw any votes that will damage ABBOTT. Neither can McCoughahee should he decide to run as a Repuke, can only hurt Dems drawing the HippieDippie class in Austin.
