Shake off your dust, Texas voters. The results of the Republican primary for the presidential nomination are not final, and in this state, all registered voters can participate.
No Texan is a registered Republican or Democrat. Our primaries are open at least, for now, until somebody powerful starts insisting that we close them in the name of "election integrity."
We urge any Texas voter who's not a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat to have their say in the March 5 GOP primaries. Early voting starts Tuesday. Storm them, we say, if you have even an iota of conservatism in you. By that we mean the desire to conserve American democracy. Storm them if you're an independent. Storm them if you usually stay home in March and wait for the main event in November.
I personally love this description of Haley's meeting with the Houston Chronicle's editorial board
For nearly an hour, Haley parried our questions, never fumbling for words or veering into vengeful incoherence like Trump. We didn't have to wonder what bit part American interests play in her quixotic bid for the most powerful position in the world. America, it seems rather than ego, fame, greed or an oval-shaped shelter from criminal prosecution is her chief concern.
Haleys views often clash with ours, but she made reasoned arguments that were, for the most part, based on verifiable facts.
TFG obviously did not bothered to be interviewed and would had failed if TFG did try for an endorsement
