What is that old saying? Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.
That certainly seems to be the case with Jasmine Crockett, who has apparently still not gotten over being passed over by her party in the Texas Democrat primary for U.S. Senate, instead opting to go with James Talarico.
Democrats may end up regretting their choice, as Talarico has shown himself to painfully out of step with Texans on a wide variety of issues from his bizarre views on religion to the oil business.
Crockett doesn’t seem to be openly working to tank Talarico’s candidacy, but she has suggested that black voters in Texas are not uniting behind him.
Breitbart News reports:
Jasmine Crockett Says Black Voters Not United Behind Talarico, Won’t Attend Texas Democrat Convention
Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) said Black voters have not fully united behind Texas Democrat Senate nominee James Talarico and revealed she will not attend next week’s Texas Democrat Party convention.
Texas Democrats will gather in Corpus Christi next week in an effort to project unity and build momentum behind Talarico’s challenge to Republican Attorney General Ken Paxton. But one of the party’s most prominent figures plans to stay away. Crockett, who lost the Democrat Senate primary to Talarico in March, told the Dallas Morning News she will skip the convention and instead focus on supporting down-ballot candidates nationwide.
The Dallas congresswoman also questioned whether Democrats — particularly Black voters — have rallied behind Talarico and the rest of the statewide ticket.
“I’ve not heard a bunch of kumbaya,” Crockett said. “People don’t seem to be convinced at this point, but there’s a lot of time between now and November.”
When asked whether she would actively support Talarico’s campaign, Crockett offered no commitment.
“I have no idea. I am more focused on down-ballot races in general,” she said.
The congresswoman also dismissed claims that she declined an invitation to the convention, saying Talarico left what she viewed as an “afterthought invite” earlier this month.
Crockett may not be the brightest bulb but she knows she got double-crossed by her own party in this race.

Crockett probably would have been an awful candidate for senate, but Talarico may end up proving to be even worse.
And that’s saying something.
