Here's an idea I have been mulling...

1. I just don't know .... I live in a 90% Repub. county.....we have an active county Dem. chair....

who beats the bushes every election to find people to work in the election precincts, has a calling group that makes tons of calls.....we have an active women's group....and another Dem. club. Nothing changes here. Still Repubs elected statewide and local. How a state can elect for attorney general, (a very powerful office in Texas,) a demagogic radio talk-show host with extreme views and little elected experience, over a Latina woman with years of experience in the leg., a pharmacist, smart and personable, just depresses the heck out of me. Of course I'm equally astonished that Rick Scott and Scott Walker were reelected in their states.

I'm sure there are plenty of counties in Texas who have little Dem. activism, but with such a large majority of Republican voters who apparently care nothing about the qualities of their candidates, or positions on issues.....I just don't see how it's going to work, (turning Texas Blue.)

Sorry to be such a downer, I'm just tired. Revolution will come when I'm gone.
