“While Texas survived another scorching summer, Attorney General Ken Paxton’s double-digit lead in the U.S. Senate primary evaporated into a statistical tie with incumbent Sen. John Cornyn (R). With a torrent of self-inflicted, election-defining scandals about his personal and financial affairs, Paxton’s senatorial bid now resembles an ice sculpture: impressive at first, but melting away until only a puddle remains. That’s why he’s the Democrats’ favorite Republican — the weakened, injured opponent they can use to take back power in the midterms.” (10/23/25)
