4. It's a bit much to expect a party exec director to flip a state.

She seems good, but to be clear she's had little involvement in Texas politics in her professional career, and Virginia's success was predicated on an Anglo suburban vote much different than ours. We've had several executive directors churning through that position. The leadership is the same leadership that's been in place for the last decade, and the strategy has been the same.

Hoping to see magic, but we're several steps away from winning a statewide office at this point.

I will say that the state party is better at doing their job, especially with Latino outreach, than the last state I lived in (Florida), but that's not saying much (C- to really low F).
