1. I so wish she would drop out and run for one of the safe Blue US House seats near where she lives.

She does not have to live in a district in order to represent it. For example, Maxine Waters and the late John Conyers served US House districts for decades without living in them.

Crockett, unfortunately, has less of a chance of winning a TX US Senate seat in that racist, sexist Red state than Talarico does, IMHO.
