Yeah, I know, I know, it's taken over the entire nation in the last 24 hours.  But it's especially shocking here in Texas, because I don't think anyone expected Gina Hinojosa to defeat Greg Abbott in the Governor's race.  And of course, James Talarico defeated Ken Paxton for the U.S. Senate seat.  Paxton is notorious for his nefarious back-door dealings and history of bribery.  I voted for both Hinojosa and Talarico.  A Texan Democrat like myself is pretty damn happy this morning.  Talarico's statement this morning on CNN:  "I am not going into the Senate to represent the Democratic Party, I am going into the Senate to represent the people of the great State of Texas."  I think the people's candidate won, and it's about time here in this State.  I love this guy.
