id like to think ted crud will be voted out next time he's up for election but i dont think the way the counties are jerrymandered or the collective short term memory will allow that.
Cruz is a senator, so blessedly, counties have nothing to do with it.
What
does have anything to do with it will be the Dems putting forward another mediocre politician, probably in Big Oil's pocket, who maybe gets the lead out for the most basic form of human decency once and probably has some attribute to them that raises an extremely minor scandal that is meaningless in the long run but will make some would-be D voters ask
just enough meaningless questions as to swan them off of voting (remember how there was a minor kerfuffle about O'Rourke going by the name "Beto" considering his
extremely Irish last name?), handing the nomination once again to the Zodiac Killer. Beto is better than Ted Cruz, but Beto still sucks **** out of a straw compared to, like, an actually left politician. They shoulda got the lead singer of the band to run instead. Bassists ain't worth **** unless they're Geddy Lee.

sustain their anger for the next three-and-three-quarters years over this, especially toward Ted Cruz. And maybe gaining a sense that things will change under not Ted Cruz, which needs the rest of the Democratic Party to not settle into a groove of mediocri--
Y'know what, **** everyone and run. Any country up for letting us seek asylum?
