HD85: Race draws donors from wide area - Landtroop had almost double the number of in-district donors as Heflin in the last report

bullet

Some local Republicans abandon important local races, go to Nevada to campaign - just so you know, most of these people love to claim to be "the party" and "the workers" but few are. Most have done nothing (not even a token-show-up) for most local campaigns and it has long been this way. They are free to go but, the local party organization should not be encouraging this. We have a nationally important Congressional race next-door in S. New Mexico if they have to go somewhere - but that's not exotic enough. We have one of the 4 most important Texas House races next door to our county in HD85 but these folk have not been out blanketing nearby towns each weekend. And we have a Sheriff, County Judge, and House race in Lubbock Co. and these folk have not been putting in significant time for that. When the huge Neugebauer/Stenholm race was on-going, these folks left Lubbock too for the fun of a campaign trip. The state party bused in folks from elsewhere to field walk teams for Neugebauer. What sense does that make? This "strike force" stuff is fine but NEVER when there are local races which need volunteers. And don't believe a claim that local races have somehow "released" these volunteers - that has not happened. Campaigns have been trying to get these folk to work since the beginning of September and most have never shown up to lift a finger doing the real work.

He's letting the libs control the language by accepting the idea that cuts in budgets for big-gov't bureaucracies is an attack upon the needy. If he's not any smarter than this, then he's a HUGE disappointment. Everything he says is not wrong but, in letting the libs control the language he throws his fellow conservatives overboard and fuels the anti-reform, pro-big-gov't media agenda.
