Texas Mid-Term Election Candidates For 2014


The abortion bill that was presented to the Texas state senate this year, brought a lot of attention to the politics of this great state. Not only did Wendy Davis become a overnight sensation, she also shed some light on the fact that this state manufactures most of the conservative base that wields a lot of power in Washington politics.

The American people are simply too frustrated with the Republican party and many Texas citizens are ready for a complete overhaul of the state that manufactures the Republican brand for a party which represents centralist ideals or at the very least a government that represents the needs of the people.

At this point, we want to provide as much coverage on the Republican opposition that the news ignores so that people can be informed of those other parties which also represent those Texans and their rights for the 2014 mid-term election.

So without further delay, let's look at the candidates. As I expected, there are more Republicans in the election than candidates from any other party.

As of this posting there are fifteen Republican candidates running for the U.S. Senate, governor and lieutenant governor, six libertarians and four democrats including Davis; excluding the Senate which only leaves one libertarian against the Republican majority.

The filing deadline is December 9 so we'll be keeping an eye on the news as it comes in and post it here.

Other parties involved will also be covered in the process; we will do our best to be neutral on the issue as long as it applies to covering those candidates that get very little coverage. On that however, it's important to state that in the public arena, opinions are often weighed in as fact here and will be backed with common sense before conviction, in order for it to be a sound argument. You will find that everything is clearer after discussion. Something that is rare these days.

Here is a list of all of those candidates:

Devin Nunes Gains GOP Support To Attack Mueller's Investigators

Embed from Getty Images Since being cleared by the House Ethics Committee in early December, Rep. Devin Nunes (R-CA) has reportedly amp'd up his efforts to investigate those who are investigating President Trump over possible collusion with Russian officials during the 2016 presidential election. The committee initially began their investigation against Devin Nunes over allegations that he had revealed classified information to the public. This was determined when the California Republican arranged a spontaneous press conference in front of the White House one morning, after he had disappeared the night before to meet with then-unknown members of the President's National Security Council. It was later learned that those two unknown figures were Ezra Cohen-Watnick and Michael Ellis. Cohen-Watnick was one of the few White House staffers fired in August. It was during that press conference when Nunes claimed he acquired information that validated President Trump's cl...

Syrian air base attack triggered blame on Obama for chemical weapons in Syria

Embed from Getty Images ( BlastingNews ) - Since the Syrian air base attack, the discussion over chemical weapons in Syria continues to develop with the new comparison between diplomacy and military action. In that comparison, the Obama administration is still taking some heat from conservatives about how they are at fault for doing nothing. In this article about a discussion that took place on Charlie Rose between conservative columnist Bret Stephens and former White House official Tony Blinken, the blame over Syria's chemical weapons is about what was declared and what wasn't. To add, Stephens continues to tow the Republican line about the former president's "red line" statement and how they feel it made America look weak.
