Outgoing U.S. Rep. Jasmine Crockett won't be at the Texas Democratic state convention this week to rally behind state Rep. James Talarico, telling the Dallas Morning News she has "no idea" if she will actively campaign for the Democratic nominee.
That's not what she told KERA News earlier this year. In an interview with NTX Now's Ron Corning published March 3, Crockett said she "absolutely" would campaign for Talarico if he won the nomination.
"The reality is that it has to be bigger than any single individual. This is about us winning, that is what it's about," Crockett said. "And when I say 'us winning' I mean us as Texans."
Talk about sour grapes. But outside of the usual Black Democrat plantation heads on the Left, no one should be surprised that an angry, professional-race-baiter like Crockett would fail to support her former opponent and Democrat Talarico in his bid for a Texas Senate seat. Especially now that Crockett's gone the race card route and blamed for dismal Senate campaign loss this past March on 'racism'. Crockett, who'll probably head to the podcast circuit and become a MSNOW and CNN regular once her Congressional term ends in a few months, just can't accept that her loss to Talarico was mostly due to her boorish attitude, lack of substance, refusal to step in platforms that would actually challenge her (like Stephen A. Smith, who practically begged her to come on his popular YouTube show several times after offering construtive criticism beforehand) and failure to advance populist ideas, not race. And that's the real reason her ego won't allow to help Talarico out.
