NASHVILLE — Two of Joe Biden’s top allies in Texas pleaded Thursday for him to pay attention to the state, venting frustration at his lack of investment despite vast resources and signs that Texas is closer than it’s been in decades to slipping from the GOP grip.
“We need some help from the national ticket,” said Beto O’Rourke, the former El Paso congressman who nearly toppled Sen. Ted Cruz two years ago.
“The voters in Texas are doing their part,” he said on a Texas Democratic Party call to preview Thursday night’s presidential debate in Nashville.
Julián Castro, the former Obama housing secretary and San Antonio mayor, echoed the demand.
He knows he's lost Texas, and is saving the money for his retirement...

Biden has less campaign trail energy than Sir Edmund. And that, among other things, will be his downfall.

Not true. They are paying attention in Texas in standard Democrat fashion. The Joe Biden campaign’s Texas Political Director and several cohorts have been formally accused of helping to run an illegal ballot harvesting operation, according to two separate affidavits filed at the Texas Supreme Court.
They are not neglecting Texas, they are instead neglecting ethics and honesty, as usual, very consistent with Biden and his campaign.

Neglected Texas? Hell, Fingers has barely been out of his basement in weeks. He has neglected every state but has tried to make up for it by sending Smidgen to royal blue Philadelphia. Wasn’t Joe born in PA? He should already own that state’s electoral votes.

Well he just announced his intentions to completely destroy Texas so I suspect that may have a little bit to do with his reluctance to face the good people of Texas. Just a hunch.

Beto and Julio are desperate, Joe. They're both unemployed and need jobs. So come to Texas, pronto!

Nah, Joe didn't come to Texas, but he sent the Seinfeld crew. All of them were here to rally the few and far between who might be voting Democrat.

Don't worry, Beto, you can still go door-to-door in Texas collecting AR-15s. The owners will be happy to give them up and nominate you for the Nobel.

I wouldnt say theyve been neglecting Texas. Theres a multitude of Democrats that are running to take over city and state positions, especially in the State House. Fellow Texans, Eagles up on your local races. Make sure the Democrats do not take back the state. Since Texas historically switched from yellow dog Democrat to Republican, our state has prospered. People are fleeing the major cities, especially here in the Houston area, to get away from Democrat policies (Dear Lord God, save us from Sylvester Turner and Lena Hidalgo!). Im fleeing the Houston area so I can feel like I am back in my beloved state. Yankees are working hard to turn us blue!

When Bite Me said he would effectively end the Oil Industry, he LOST Texas.
He has repeatedly forgotten one of his party's BIGGEST issues, the "AOC" Green Deal to take control of our way of life with technologies PROVEN to be not ready for prime time--

Hit send before 2nd point--my apologies
The demonrat socialists are spending TONS and TONS of money on races for the Texas State Legislature races so they can redraw the voting districts after the Census. Texas only has a current GOP advantage of 9 seats.

Here's what you do to get even with that stupid, lazy, basement dwelling, ne'er-do-well; vote for Trump. That'll fix Biden's sorry-ass (party symbol).

I was campaigning yesterday outside a polling place...Voters were smiling and waving, giving thumbs up for Republican candidate for Congress, the majority "people of color". Not a whole lot of joy or reaction from Dems, and there didn't seem many of them. There may be hope in this area of Texas yet.

#14, it would have helped if state Republicans had actually looked out for our interests and constitutional rights during the COVID over-reaching instead of hiding behind Abbott and the county judges. But, whatever, I voted for pubs all the way. If they win they’ll get an earful from me, FWIW.

Why waste money on a lost cause?
Joe's unspent campaign contributions will come in handy for his retirement income, now that the payoff from Red China will be drying up.

I'm sure that a fifteen-minute teleprompter reading to an empty parking lot will turn it around.

Joe and Kamala are "taking care of" Texas alright. They are gonna take care of the oil and gas business and then they are gonna take care of their second amendment rights too, all winning platforms in the great state which is the largest oil producer and known for being fiercely independent! Robert Francis and Julian need to move elsewhere, I think its a lost cause for them.

Joe, like Shillary, feels like he is a sure thing and doesn't have to work hard.
Little Mike and other big money is spending millions.
