And now the NYT reports The Psychedelic Warrior is kicking around the idea of becoming the next Governor of the Great State of Texas! Bless His Heart.......
"In recent weeks, Mr. O’Rourke has been making calls to Democratic leaders across Texas to inform them that he is seriously considering taking on Gov. Greg Abbott, a Republican who is up for re-election next year. And he has begun talking to supporters about having them join his campaign staff. A decision could be made in the coming weeks, the three people said, possibly as soon as October.
No Democrat has been elected governor of Texas since Ann Richards in 1990. And no prominent Democrat has emerged to take on Mr. Abbott next year. The governor, who has built up a war chest of more than $55 million, has appeared more concerned with insulating himself from challengers on his right in a Republican primary than worrying about the general election. But Democrats see a potential opening.
David Carney, a campaign adviser to Governor Abbott and a longtime Republican political consultant, said that he would not be surprised if Mr. O’Rourke jumped into the race. “O’Rourke has been planning to run since he got crushed in his presidential flop,” Mr. Carney said.
"He is a target-rich environment with positions way, way out of the mainstream....."
Once O’Rourke was no longer a useful idiot in their proxy war on Trump and leftist discovered what a goober he was, they turned their backs on him. But if he decides to challenge the present Governor, Hollywood liberals will back him with cash and tweets once again because they are done fucking up their state already.
