I am definitely voting for
Beto O'Rourke for governor of Texas. I have met Beto several times and have helped campaign for him via the
Midland (TX) Democratic Party during his previous bid to unseat that Cruz person. I am once again helping his campaign, this time to help him unseat Greg Abbott. Beto is a genuinely good person who is interested in helping the masses - not just his voters or his "tribe."
Greg Abbott, on the other hand, is a lemming. He panders to his richest backers and lobbyists without giving second thought to the dire consequences their abhorrent, totalitarian decisions have on others (e.g., the less fortunate, poor, and powerless). Abbott and his GOP sychophants don't rethink things and for certain, they do not weigh the adage: just because you can doesn't mean you should. Imagine, Greg Abbott, if there was a law that kept you from holding political office because of your paralysis. Imagine a law saying you were no longer a viable member of society because you had a permanent physical ailment.
It's ridiculous to think there could ever be such a law, right (rhet.) but it's no more ridiculous than what you and your GOP cronies are doing to millions of women in this country. The country that shamelessly leads in battle cry, "Land of the free, Home of the brave" but only if you're a wealthy W.A.S.P.!
Beto for Texas!
