BUT - have you ever once looked at a Turner finance report? I have no idea what your scruples are, but there's a healthy chunk of Harris county Dems with Republican money in their campaign account that's now being spent to turn out the Democratic vote. Turner is one of them. And at this juncture, I am 100% behind spending every dime of that Republican money turning out Democratic votes.
All that money isn't going to help turn out Democratic votes in Harris County. There are less registered voters in 2008 than there were in 2004. And probably less Democrats.
And to rehash a primary issue - yes, the Noriega's returned the money.
Finally - please explain to me which Republican dollars are good, and which Republican dollars are bad. Which Republican issues are good, and which are bad? Some Dems support tort reform, so it's great to take their money? What about your favorite Democrat that voted for the bankruptcy bill? That's where you draw the line?
How about Hubert Vo, that you attacked? He voted perfect on every issue I can think of. Turner held Craddick's gavel when the House was stripped of democracy. I'm happy with both of them right now, but you want to tear down one in particular. Where is your line?
As for Hubert Vo, I assume you would support Charles Manson if he voted the way you wanted your representative to vote?
As for the big Democratic money it never seems to flow except with the Clintons and Arthur Schechter. A pattern. And sorry but I believe funding a US senatorial race is more important than funding a state senatorial race.
As I said Democrats have a way to go. And I am glad the Noriegas returned the money. No doubt no one noticed the name on the check when it came in. They took it. Glad they returned it but they still took it.
Lots of good folks are giving it their all in Harris County, this season for the first time in a long time, but it is truly inspiring to see all of the young folks who are in leadership positions and making the calls which seem to be pulling the party elders out of the ditches up on the main highway along with everyone else. For the first time in a long time, we all seem to be going down the highway in the same direction and for the most part, all the egos have been put in check for a bit.
