Which Democratic US House Member from Texas has an excellent chance of winning a TX US Senate Race

[nkpolitics1212]

in this current Environment?
Henry Cuellar-first ran for US Congress in 2002 against Henry Bonilla-R,(TX-23) lost by a 52-47 percent margin, got elected to US Congress in 2004 by defeating Ciro Rodriguez-D (TX-28) in the Democratic primary by a narrow margin. Cueller could do well in less Democratic areas in Texas.
Joaquin Castro-best known for being Julian's twin brother.-elected to US Congress in 2012 in TX-20 a safe Democratic Hispanic Majority Congressional district.
Beto O'Rourke-elected to US Congress in 2012 by unseating long time Democratic incumbent Silvestre Reyes in the Democratic primary in TX-16 a safe Democratic Hispanic majority Congressional District.
Cueller and Castro are more well known statewide in TX then O'Rourke. Between Cueller and Castro, Castro is more progressive and younger than Cuellar.
Because TX is still a red state-Cuellar should be the Democratic nominee, he has a decade more experience serving in Congress than Castro and O'Rourke, He is more battle tested. Cuellar has challenged a high profile Republican incumbent Bonilla in 2002-a Republican leaning Midterm Election-Bush43 was very popular in TX during that time. Cuellar lost by a less than 5 percent margin.

8. Beto O'Rourke is the only person that is officially a candidate and if he is the Democratic nominee,

I will do everything to make sure Beto defeats Ted, However a competitive primary challenge would be helpful to Beto.

3. O'Rourke is going to run.

Castro is also likely to run. This is the first time that I've heard Cuellar mentioned as a possible candidate and I don't he has a support base compared to the other two. As a matter of fact, this is the first time that I've heard mention of him as a candidate in the Senate race.
