2018 re-election? good, bad? sound off..

[GTRH8R]

He's got my vote

Unless someone better is put forth, I'll vote for him again. The Dems are trying dang hard to turn Texas "blue". He does a pretty good job at warding off that catastrophe.

I would prefer to not have theocon running the state, but the size of Abott's campaign chest will make it next to impossible for a centrist to beat him. Dan Patrick would be even worse. I hope to see the day that neither would win the Texas governorship. Maybe in another decade or two...

The particular utopia you desire already exists. It's called California.

Your comments don't seem to reflect an appreciation for the differences between centrists and ideologues. Liberal ideologues run California. If it wasn't for Joe Straus, conservative ideologues would run Texas. I don't care for either situation.

As a centrist and an independent voter, I have no interest in seeing social engineering from the regressive left or the religious right.

[Livin'2hunt]

I fully grasp your point. It was a tongue in cheek comment. If you eliminate all social issues in politics, by default, you eliminate morality in society. A society with tenuous morals simply will not stand for long. The Democratic Party holds the mantle for engineering the degradation of morals in American society and they are smart about it. I want to be left alone as much as anyone but I also don't want a thriving meth lab next door.

I'll vote Abbott unless a better alternative shows up. Don't see it coming though. Patrick is a tool, and Strauss prevents more than he ever actually gets done.
