Texas Democrats have an important choice to make today.
Well, sort of.
On March 4, no candidate secured a majority of the vote in the election for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senate in Texas. Dallas dentist David Alameel received 47.1 percent of the vote, and political activist Kesha Rogers garnered 21.7 percent. Texas Democrats will choose between the two of them in a runoff contest Tuesday. The winner will face a long-shot bid against incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas).
The results were somewhat embarrassing for the Texas Democratic Party. Rogers is a follower of Lyndon LaRouche, who heads a fringe political movement that has been compared to a cult. His supporters are often seen carrying signs depicting Obama with a Hitler mustache. One of Rogers' own campaign posters features that image, and reads, "Down with the Traitor! Impeach!"
Twenty one percent for the obvious LaRouchian nutcase and
perennial gadfly whose posters feature Obama with a Hitler mustache, eh? Well, I suppose it could be worse. If she had chosen to run as a Republican she'd probably be in Louie Gohmert's seat right now.
