What a crazy plot of a Gov: Kounalakis out, Kamala+ Padilla declining, Mahan getting in, Steyer parlaying support for Prop 50 into a Gov campaign,Porter exposed as awful, Caruso declining, Swalwell entering and dropping out. There’s gonna be a book about this someday

Q: Do you love Ken Paxton?
@JamesTalarico: Yes. Ken Paxton is a child of God. He is my brother in Christ. But love requires accountability. Think about when your friend grabs their car keys to drive home under the influence. Your job as their friend is to take the keys away. That feels aggressive. But it is done out of love for that person and for all of your neighbors. He's shown that he only cares about himself. He got indicted because he was screwing over his own friends, reported to the FBI by his own staff, impeached by his own party. If I was to sit down with Ken Paxton, I would grab the keys.

Kansas needs a fighter in Washington, not a frequent flyer to Florida. That’s why I’m supporting Adam Hamilton for U.S. Senate.

As a young political reporter, I covered Sen. Birch Bayh's last race. One of the greatest campaigners I've ever seen.
This retro ad for bus grandson, Beau, who is running for Sec State in Indiana, is really fun.
Beau Bayh closes out his race for Secretary of State by adopting his grandfather Birch’s 1962 campaign jingle.

I have been critical of the @BeauBayh campaign for several of their ads. The machismo "Bro Bayh" stuff early on was silly to me. Over the campaign, they've tighted up their act. This final one is brilliant. My parents would sing this jingle, and they were strong Republicans.
In 1962, my grandad Birch ran for office, but there was one problem - nobody knew how to pronounce our name. So his campaign came up with a jingle to help voters remember it.
As we approach Election Day, I wanted to bring that tune back and put my own spin on it.
My grandad’s example inspired me to believe in the power of public service to make a real difference in people’s lives. He helped pass the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act, authored the constitutional amendment lowering the voting age to 18 so that the young Americans fighting and dying in Vietnam would have a voice in choosing their leaders, and championed Title IX, opening doors for generations of women in college athletics.
I’m proud to carry on that tradition of service in my own way.

I love this ad. One of my favorite of the cycle. I've been humming the tune all afternoon.

I trust you - the Hoosier voters - to have a more direct say in the biggest issues we’re facing. That's why I want to institute citizen-led ballot initiatives, because some of the folks in the statehouse are looking out for special interests, not your interests.
