Trump has Melania as trophy wife, Melania put up with world class jerk Trump, because well he brings the money. Whats Heidi scuse? Does Heidi sees Cruz as trophy husband? I bet she can do much better, could get a personal trainer that is not the world biggest jerk.

Ah yes, the good old âvote for this guy because heâs going to win, donât vote for the other guy because voting for a loser is wasting your vote.â

As I have noted before, I have had my own experience with Lyin Ted and he is everything everyone says about him. Worthless, self-serving SOB who would sacrifice a child if he could find a path to âstardomâ instead.
The problem we have is can BETO overcome the Governor Greg Abbott effect? Abbott, who has promoted âtort reformâ AFTER a random tree limb fell on him while he was running and now functions in a wheel chair after a huge lawsuit settlement in his favor. We are certainly sorry that happened but he truly believes in âI got mine, screw youâ.
But, Abbott is very popular and unfortunately his opponent, Valdez, is not a strong candidate. If Cruz wins it will be due to Abbott drawing too many Republican voters to vote.
Polls are showing Cruz ahead, but the only poll that counts is on Election Day. BETO is a powerful, real person who can make a difference. And, rid us all of the Cruz curse.
Support BETO if you can and you Texans need to work to get out the vote.
This is our chance!

I didnât realize owning a second home was a necessity. There are many people in this country who canât afford to rent, let along own, one home, and Heidi is bitching because one home is not enough? Iâm proud not to belong to her social circle.

Itâs a shame the Cruzâs canât live well on nearly one-half million dollars per year. Perhaps they need to sign up for some money management courses at their local community college.

I always liked the comment from his old college roommate. When asked why people take an instant dislike to Ted Cruz, his roommate says âIt saves time.â

Win or lose Mr. OâRourke win be a strong contender for the Presidency in 2020 if he wants. The speculation about so many aged Democrats making a run is depressing.

itâs just like daily kos, you canât call a bitch a bitch without being given a time out. Such tender ears I guess.
Itâs nice that the Chronicle endorsed Beto. Too bad that the endorsement implied support for the VA is a not something Democrats do. The idea that Republicans pay anything more than lip service to veterans is ridiculous.

Lies! They work hard to create as many combat veterans as possible.
Why do you want to keep our beloved soldiers from getting combat pay? Why do you hate the troops?
Iâll be early voting for Beto next week. It seems reassuring how many Beto signs I see on my way to work from Austin to Lockhart (I realize most people commute the other direction). As I started to see the signs for Beto all around, I noticed I never saw a Ted Cruz sign or bumper sticker on anyoneâs car. I finally have spotted one. One. So from my commute I feel like Beto has a chance.

The Houston Chronicle Goes With OâRourkeâŚ
As should every living, breathing, vote-eligible Texan with an iota of functioning grey matter!
Harrrrrrrrrrumph.
Unfair, I say! Unfair!
You Have Been Lied To About The Blobfish This Whole Time
[âŚ]
However, not everything is what it seems with this fugly thing. Youâll be shocked to hear that blobfish look pretty normal when they are in their natural habitat deep in the seas off southern Australia, Tasmania, and New Zealand. The gelatinous blobs we think of as blobfish are actually decompressed specimens suffering from decompression damage.
The blobfish (Psychrolutes marcidus) is a deep-sea fish that dwells within the dark depths 600 to 1,200 meters (2,000 to 3,900 feet) beneath the waves. They never go above the oceanâs âtwilight zoneâ, depths of 300 meters (985 feet), unless they are unwillingly dragged up by a scientist or a fisherman.
As deep-sea creatures, they are well-adapted to a life of crushing pressure and minimal light. They are armed with soft bones and jelly-like flesh which allows them to undergo pressure without cracking or getting crushed. They also donât have a swim bladder, a gas-filled cavity most fish use to control their buoyancy, as it would collapse under the extreme pressure.
Since they donât have any natural structural support, they bloat and âblob outâ when you bring them into the lower pressures at the surface of the sea. Back home in the deep sea, the blobfish ainât so blobby. In fact, they actually look pretty unextraordinary, perhaps even handsome (maybe). You can see what they look like in their natural environment in the illustration below.
The blobfish ainât so blobby at deep-sea pressures. Alan Riverstone McCulloch (1885-1925) - Fisheries: Zoological results of the fishing experiments carried out by F.I.S. âEndeavorâ 1909-10 under H.C. Dannevig. Public Domain
In case you were wondering what became of Mr Blobby, he now lives in a jar of highly concentrated alcohol at the Australian Museumâs Ichthyology Collection, still proud of his legacy as the worldâs ugliest animal.
And they most definitely object to being used in comparison to Tailgunner Ted.
They are just natural beings who look fine in their habitat, as opposed to other⌠um⌠specimens.
Let us never forget Al Frankenâs assessment of the situation:
You have to understand that I like Ted Cruz probably more than my colleagues like Ted Cruz. And I hate Ted Cruz.
Leave P. marcidus out of this, I say! And, again, harrrrrrrumph.
