You are right max. There are very few areas where someone with this kind of bad press could have ANY chance to win a primary and then an election against an incumbent. Hell, I don't like him because he comes across as false to me and just by reading that story I am probably more educated about the candidate than half of the voters.

Is this a solid republican territory? It says "central Dallas" and the incumbent is a repub.... not a big deal if it was a no-win area but it would be nice to see more than this guy and a retired salesman from the Democratic party.
