Is Chavez-Thompson the best Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor?

It is evident that the Democratic Party in Texas still has lots of work to do. And it seems that they lack unity, and foundation. The Republican Party on the other hand seems to be well established within the party. Many Democratic Party members know that it going to be a while till they have a chance in Texas statewide posts. It could take several years for the Democratic Party in Texas to develop into a powerful party.
While reading this article on the Austin statesman I found this editorial article and it gave me the chills to see that the democrats are having a hard time. On the ballot for lieutenant governor for are three candidates for the Democratic ticket. The first one is Linda Chavez-Thompson a longtime labor leader, second is a former Travis County District Attorney named Ronnie Earle 67, and the third candidate is a Austin deli owner Marc Katz 63. These are the people who would best be the leader for the Democratic lieutenant governor ticket. Well I feel that it is sorry for my party to have such little choices to choose from for this election year. The best one I feel and so does the editor, would be Linda Chavez- Thompson because she knows through experiences that life is rough out there and also because she was a union labor leader and will fight for the working class people. She seems to be the only one who would stand a chance in competing with the incumbent. Just by reading this article give me a wide vision of what is to come for the Democrats. I guess that the editor who wrote this is familiar with the parties, and I do agree with them on this article.
