Texas Democrat to challenge Cruz: report
By Lisa Hagen - 03/29/17 12:38 PM EDT

Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-Texas) will announce on Friday that he’ll challenge Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) in 2018, according to the Houston Chronicle.

O’Rourke will reportedly make the announcement in his hometown of El Paso, which he has represented since 2013.

In an email to supporters last week, the O'Rourke campaign teased an unspecified “big announcement."

El Paso is about 100% Democrat, likely the most Democrat per capita in Texas.  When I worked in the Texas Republican Party, we knew that place was a lost cause -  Republican money spent there would be throwing it away.  So, this candidate may have fuzzy thinking; that he is so loved by that place, he has a chance.  Unless he is a multi, multi, millionaire using his own money, he will have trouble raising money.

No government in the 12,000 years of modern mankind history has led its people into anything but the history books with a simple lesson, don't let this happen to you.

When I lived in El Paso, I registered as a Democrat, just so I could vote against Ron Coleman in the primary.
