<p>With the victory of Texas State Representative James Talarico in the Democratic primary for U.S. Senate, Democrats have gone into major euphoria. They are replacing political analysis with “a feeling.” “Something is in the air,” says Democrat state chairman Kendall Scudder.</p>



<p>CNN reporter Rosa Flores was caught up in the mood—sounding more like Talarico’s campaign spokesperson than a news reporter. “Something feels different,” she exclaimed.</p>



<p>They are elevating the baby-faced minister/politician as some magical figure – standing apart from other politicians. A very special guy with special appeal. He appeals to Republicans, they insist, with his scripture-fueled talk of unity and “top versus bottom” divides.</p>



<p>Oh, bless their little blue hearts. Texas Democrats are huffing fairy dust thicker than a Dallas dust storm. It’s the same delusional high they rode in 2018 with Beto O’Rourke – that skateboard-riding, guitar-strumming savior who was going to flip the Lone Star State blue. “Beto! Beto!” the crowds screamed.</p>



<p>National media swooned at every one of O’Rourke’s utterances. “Something is happening!” they gushed “This feels different,” the pundits swooned. Then Senator Ted Cruz beat him.</p>



<p>Undaunted by reality, Beto dusted himself off and ran for governor in 2022. Same script: massive hype, record cash, “Texas is turning!” Result? Greg Abbott crushed him by double digits. Two epic put downs, yet here come the Democrats with the identical fairy tale, now starring Talarico as Beto 2.0.</p>



<p>Talarico has himself fed the frenzy: “There is something happening in Texas. The people of this state have given this country a little bit of hope. Hope? More like opium laced wet dream with pixie dust.</p>



<p>Just like Beto, they are airbrushing away Talarico’s extreme left-wing record and statements. Talarico preaches that “Poverty is violence. Pollution is violence. And yes, prison is violence.” Law and order? Nah, that’s oppression. On gender, he declares modern science “obviously” recognizes that there are many more than two biological genders. In fact, there are six.” And theologically? “God is both masculine and feminine and everything in between. God is non-binary.”</p>



<p>He even claims Jesus was a “radical feminist” and twists Scripture to defend abortion, insisting the Bible supports it because Mary “consented.” His campaign pushes codifying <em>Roe v, Wade </em>nationwide, red-flag gun laws, universal background checks, and “trans children are God’s children” with a right to join the opposite sex. These are not Texas values.</p>



<p>Yet the euphoria brigade swears this seminary student-turned-social-media star will magically win over Trump voters. Newsflash, folks: Texans saw through Beto’s act twice. They will see through Talarico’s faster than you can say “California values.” The “feeling” will evaporate the moment voters clear the fairy dust from their eyes and see Talarico’s platform and record.</p>



<p>Democrats can sprinkle glitter all they want. Come November, the Lone Star State will remind them why fairy tales do not win real elections – and why Beto is still licking his wounds in the political wilderness.</p>



<p>So, there ‘tis.</p>

Texas Democrats are Spreading Fairy Dust … Again
