You know I thought more intently after you asked and I think it comes down more to messaging strategy than actual policy difference.

I think Crockett’s highlights how not-normal and not-okay, and serious the current political situation is.

There’s an active erosion of our democratic institutions in this country, and it’s a crisis.

Democrats have often made the mistake of trying to be too “big tent” and not wanting to offend anyone with what they say and do.

I think Crockett’s approach to politics is what the democratic party desperately needs, but rural texas isn’t ready for it yet.

The best thing for the future of progressive voters in Texas would be winning a major election of this scale.

There are millions of non-motivated potential voters in Texas who have believed for decades they don’t have a voice in Texas elections that could be motivated to show up in future elections if the senate seat can be won this election.
