TX-23: A great victory for conservatives!
Such is the snark on Daily Kos this morning. I know I've been personally excited that all my "leftist" beliefs are now labeled conservative. Given how much money the GOP had poured into the TX-23 election and their effort to schedule it during a Hispanic holiday to suppress Hispanic turnout and support for Rodriguez, I'd honestly already written this race off as a GOP win.
I have to say it's great news for the country, it brings the total to 31 picked up seats for this election cycle minus the FL-13 which will not be decided anytime soon because of major voting irregularities that disenfranchised 18,000 Florida voters. Now given that the GOP has an iron grip on Florida and their absolute willingness to steal an election right in front of the faces of the American people, I'm not holding out much hope for this pickup. We'll just have to turn out more voters and hope they can't steal all their votes so we can win and get some freaking election reform.
The Democrats have a lot of personal house cleaning to do because of our failures in the LA-02 race this weekend. The wheels of justice do turn slowly, but they are at least starting to turn again, which is something that wasn't happening before.
