In reply to the discussion: Texas Dem attacked by DCCC makes primary runoff for Culberson's seat [View all]George II
(67,782 posts)I find it quite interesting that there were six candidates in the Primary, and of the five who didn't finish first only one has people finding excuses for her not winning. And that candidate is the one endorsed by Democracy for America and Our Revolution, and also associated with Revolution Messaging.
Could it possibly be that the Democrats in that district preferred the candidate that finished first?
Speaking of context, here is EXACTLY what she said:
On my pathetic writer's salary, I could live large in Paris, Texas, where my grandparents' plantationstyle
house recently sold for $129,000. Oh, but wait-my income would be a fraction of what it is here and I'd have
very few opportunities to increase it. (Plus I'd sooner have my teeth pulled out without anesthesia, but that's a story
for another day.)
THAT is context. And "here" is the answer to my opening question.
