I get that Beto didn't beat Cruz, but that's kind of like spiking the football when you're Alabama and you beat Texas State in quadruple overtime at home while also sustaining season ending injuries to like five starters. Republicans cannot be happy with Tuesday's results, as much as they are pretending they are. https://twitter.com/Forrest4Trees/status/1060642849925017600 eheheh zoux fucked around with this message at 22:22 on Nov 8, 2018 |

I do not particularly care about the honor of shitheads on Facebook but the admins in general do not look kindly on the potential fallout of such things.

zoux posted:https://twitter.com/cbs11jack/status/1060634103475789824 Keep going back and forth on how I feel about Beto coming right back and trying again. There's ways in which I can see Cornyn being boring is actually a disadvantage relative to Cruz - who at least fires up the tea partiers - but does that even matter when Donald'll be back on the ballot to fire them up himself? How do people on either side feel about Beto The Loser coming back for another swing? Can Beto's career survive another bust? Does it matter? Keep going back and forth.

Rather than people going gently caress YEAH BETO they will have to actively decide to vote for Franklin Bynum and I don't know that they will

It cost them every single judgeship in Harris County, four courts of appeals and countless other county offices, and probably every Dem victory on Tuesday owes at least a little to straight ticket Beto voters.

Loudly announcing at the station "HEY IF I JUST FILL IN REPUBLICAN I CAN GO, RIGHT???" If not for straight ticket voting, this one dementia-ridden 87 year old would not have been able to cast a ballot while telling me he "didn't want no demmycrat president!"

Hell I voted for a bunch of Libertarians because I leaving things blank and refuse to vote for a Republican. And I only did it because I heard about the voting machines loving up. You're pretty much right in that it's just going to cause random Libertarians to win
