1. But It wasn't about her being black at all!!! If that was the case in Texas (not) she wouldn't be there.

It was all about how in Texas we have rallied behind Tallarico and sunk lots of $$$ into taking Cornyn’s seat and this just threw a monkey wrench in it. We don’t need the distractions.
Sure wish she would stay where so is so she can take Ted Ooze’s seat.
I love Jasmine but will be voting for Tallarico.
Timing is everything.
