The is what the Russia-hoax was all about 30% of likely voters in the midterms believed it was real Further proof that Democrats recognize that they cannot win elections by being honest and truthful about their policies and plans
I never said it was the same. I am arguing it’s similar in that it involves the same mindset of the elites, who benefit from it in either example.
We've literally had 4 speakers of the house since this discussion. What made you decide to bring it up now?
Colin Allred is running ads hourly on abortion. Very clever ads I hope people will see through this but damn hopefully enough women are pro life in Texas
Like I said earlier, I don't think it's gonna be an easy seat to defend. Cruz better be taking it more seriously this time.
I get the feeling Cruz is taking it quite seriously and is planning strategic ads. Don't think average Texas vote ( male of female) is pro abortion
Guy .Allred in his ads likens the abortion law to medical care of any kind for women. How wrong would it be for a woman not to get the care she needed due to policies Cruz supports.
Allred is leveraging the case of the lady who wanted to abort her child who was likely not to survive childbirth. Note the healthcare of the mother was never in question.
Does the baby in question receive equal medical care? Nope. The baby just gets killed and thrown out like so much inconvenient garbage.
Allred is counting on voters to not know Cruz isn't in the Texas state lege and did not vote for Texas law And he/Demx counting on women voters to care more about abortion than anything else.
No, but the reason he's doing this is that he knows that if we're debating abortions involving weird circumstances like birth defects, the life of the mother or the child, the GOP is probably losing on the issue.
This came up in a discussion with a leftist acquaintance yesterday. Once I asked what Ted Cruz had to do with a law passed by Texas legislature he mumbled then shut up. Hope Allred is stupid enough to bring it up if he debates Senator Cruz. Yes Demx will try to make it center issue but most people think it is the large number of ilegal aliens destroying our country .
He will bring it up, because it puts Cruz in an awkward position. If he distances himself from it by saying, "this was an act of the Texas Legislature; I had nothing to do with it," then he alienates pro-lifers. If he embraces it, then it's as though he was in the Legislature and supported it. The bottom line is that Cruz prides himself on being solidly pro-life. He needs to be prepared to defend it on the merits.
