Look, just so you understand, I AM the Representative of Texas 7th Congressional District. Whatever this James Cargas guy wants to do with this phone bank, that's fine but just because Tom DeLay isn't House Majority Leader anymore, doesn't mean I can't be in my prime.
Rep. John Culberson isn't an ideal target by the DCCC nor is the Texas 7th Congressional District as opposed to other races in the country. TX-07 is rated R+13 per the Cook Political Report and Culberson beat 2012 Democratic challenger with 60% of the votes.
However, Rep. Culberson's 2012 Democratic challenger, James Cargas, is back for another run and is already working to shore up support for his campaign. Democracy for America in Houston has endorsed him, as well as the Houston Black American Democrats, Texas AFL-CIO, Harris County AFL-CIO, etc.
On Saturday, Feb 15th, if you are looking to get involved and spend a day phone banking, James Cargas and his campaign are hosting a phone bank at 11 am in Houston, TX. Details below via an e-mail we received:
