^ This is hilarious. It's one of Ted Cruz's early campaign ads.....a country song set to Alabama's "If You're Gonna Play in Texas" with different words.
"If you're gonna run in Texas, you can't be a liberal man" is the opening line. It also talks about how O'Rourke would take all Texans' guns and open all the borders.
The lyrics also accuse O'Rourke of changing his first name in order to appeal to Hispanic voters, despite the fact that Cruz's own given first name is Rafael. (Beto's given name is Robert.)
After Cruz's ad was released, O'Rourke posted this photo to show that he's been called Beto since he was toddler.
Anyway, O'Rourke's campaign is out-raising Cruz's. It would really be something if Cruz lost his seat.
