What a candidate in Texas sounds like
David Van Os...Candidate for Texas Attorney General.

This is what a real Democrat should sound like. Are you watching Donna Brazile?

2. Sounds great, but the problem is
only about 12% of Texans vote. Randi looked it up and was amazed. Texas dems really need to get out the vote.

13. Wanna come down here & help us?
The Texas forum on DU died last weekend why? Because with few exceptions, we were all at the convention working our butts off! And now we're back home, working our butts off. To paraphrase one of the candidates for the state party chair, when you start off a sentence with "someone ought to," that someone is YOU. So, again, wanna come down here & give us a hand?

9. Your lips to God's ears
What I keep thinking about is that I was very downhearted about the recent primaries, but watching you Texans on these videos was uplifting even at a distance. I mean this. The only thing better would have been to be there. The thing is, always, that people have to be ready and able to hear the truth, and too often truth and readiness aren't joined. In both of these speeches you could FEEL the pulse of the audience pounding collectively, just POUNDING.

Running populists this time...not those selected by DC think tankers.
