I've been following him for a while, and simply didn't have the heart to see if he'd posted anything.

Just admit that you were, that people should no longer trust your "keys" in future elections, and go away.

While I agree with him that the economy is good, voters just didn't think it was.

President Biden did a wonderful job with the post-pandemic economy.

I'll always expect voters to make the wrong decision. This will be repeated in the future, I have no doubt.

...for the last several weeks, I've been getting constant, thrice-daily emails from Colin Allred, claiming the race with Cruz is tied, or Allred is UP by 1 pt, or Cruz is up by 1 point. I sent him a few donations.

He loses to Cruz by 9 points.

polling even before the election showed it was perceived to be bad-- due to cost of living increases.

This was a huge red flag.
