If oil keeps falling or stays low, the Texas “miracle” could become a problem for them.

He then immediately pivoted to ranting red-faced about border security, deporting “them” all, sending them “back where they came from” and equating the allowance of any pathway to citizenship and voting rights to exist at all with total “amnesty” for those “border hopping invaders.” He then ended with dire warnings regarding the rising tide of voter fraud in TX.

Wow. You mean Texas will still exist in 2016? I’m totally confused, as I thought President Obola (hey, I made a funny!) was intentionally bringing the Ebola virus to Dallas in order to kill all Texas citizens and make Jesus cry. Or at least that’s what I’ve been told by every news outlet in the country for two fucking months.
Never mind. My bad. Turns out the mid-term elections are now over, so we no longer need any Ebola stories.

“If we’re not careful” means “go out and ratfuck the districts some more”.
Carve Austin into 9 pieces instead of just 5.

Republicans have been engaged to Hispanics for a year and a half, but they’ll never get married.

Here’s the Repub’s big problem!
By the census in 2020 they’ll (by “they’ll” I mean white men and their Stepford women) will no longer be in the majority!
The Latino’s will have a larger percentage of the population than the white population has now!
Heck by 2016, a couple of million more old pharts would have passed on, after living years being scared to death by the repubs!
So have fun, but remember the party won’t last that long!

So, Reince Priebus is concerned that the Texas voters who have been voting solidly Republican for forty years are finally coming to their senses and realizing that they’ve been repeatedly voting for people who intend to harm them?
They’re not the sharpest knives in the drawer down there, but if they’re finally coming around, good for them.
Reince Priebus is right to be concerned. I wish him no comfort.

Keep in mind that this is the state that thought JFK was a Communist who was going to destroy America, and that’s when Texas was solidly Democratic.
They’re nuts down there.

Even though Pres. Obama lost Texas in 2008,he still had coattails here particularly in the Houston and Dallas areas and we Dems were energized at the local level. My hope is that a Hillary/young Hispanic VP ticket will do the same. Winning Texas in 2016 might be too big a lift,but gains in the state and county races isn’t.

Work harder suppressing the brown people vote.

High Highs and Low Lows. I think the Texas Board of Education has been working overtime to ensure there’s no sudden outbreak of rationality in the state in the next generation or two.

Still the GOP won’t be able to count on Texans’ votes what with that new twelve foot wall that will completely surround the state borders. Possibly a moat also.

Typical of Roving Bands of Republicans…
Oh, you mean the fraud they initiated with their ridiculous voter ID policy? That fraud? Bet Faux Neux didnt have that in their special elecion night reporting.
We would call those “Democrats” Republicans in these times. Dont get it confused.

I’m not; I lived there then. JFK was a Democrat in 1960. Texas voted Democratic in 1960. What they’d be today is irrelevant; Kennedy, a Democrat, carried the state in the 1960 election.
Of course, it should be patently obvious that not everyone in Texas liked the guy…

Well to be accurate Rancid Piehole, you do have a 2016 TexASS problem named Carnival Cruz. No the state is not going purple in 2016, but their favorite boy in the Senate is going to cause the rest of your party a lot of headaches between now and then. Although you people are loath to admit it, he was instrumental in getting what I would call quite a few new extremists in your party elected to both the Senate and the House. If you think those that just got elected are “moderates”, then you are just as delusional as Cruz is.
As for your future problems in TexASS with it turning purple, I do believe what you mean is more brown isn’t it bigoted one? Well like it or not, that is what is going to happen, and your party has done all it can to turn those brown people off towards your party. So, while on one hand you worry about the browning of Texas, making it a less friendly state for you teabags, you and your stupid party continue to throw out threats to this President for doing anything about immigration with an EO, while you do nothing but grandstand, and basically will agree to nothing but basically militarizing our border.

Yeah how amazing is it, that there is no more mention of either Ebola or ISIS? Oh wait, not amazing at all, since it was only used to scare people into voting for the very people who refused to come back to DC and even debate what to do about ISIS, whom they said were basically on their way to America to behead all of us, or to infect themselves with Ebola and then infect all of us, after they got here by crossing over the border from Mexico. This country has become nothing but a bunch of paranoid idiots.
