Trump fundraiser in Dallas June 11th for $580.6k per couple ??

9. I have not followed city politics since Kirk

And I'm not familiar with any of the local press personalities, either. My dad probably knew the Washington correspondents of the major Texas papers just because they probably have offices in the same building (National Press Building at 14th and F in DC). But I lost him 20 years ago, and the only active Texas people I have any personal contact with at all are Matt and Dolly Angle, Aimee(Boone) Cunningham, Martin Frost and Wendy Davis. Most just sporadic contact, although I have been in regular touch with Wendy since she launched her campaign for the House of Representatives.

I have two contenders for the house that I am actively supporting to the extent I can from here. Wendy, and Valerie Plame in New Mexico. Valerie just got the bad news that about $1 million in dark money was just poured in against her, so someone somewhere is scared of her winning a House seat (and probably with good reason--she is formidable). If she loses her primary next Tuesday, it could well be because of that. I think I'll try to put in a word to the Biden campaign to consider her for VP if she loses.
