To the phone lines we go.

We will keep one phone line open.

Do that top line, Jim, for a person who is 80 plus.

If you are 80 plus, you will be moved to the front of the line as soon as you call.

You just say, I'm over 80 when Jim picks up.

Extra credit if you're over 80 and a lady, but it doesn't have to be.

713, sorry, 713-999-999-1-0-0-0.

7-1-3-999-9-9-0-0. one zero zero zero seven one three nine nine nine one zero zero all right we'll get to those calls when they come in we can have more than one uh senior on but we'll start there don you're up go ahead thanks Go ahead. Thanks, Michael. Good to talk to you. I'm sorry.

I'm only 69. Oh, you'll qualify. Okay. I wanted to talk about how we keep from getting the field

watered down when we start trying to run against Dan Crenshaw. I've seen three names out there already,

guys that are thinking about it.

I think maybe one lady.

But you know what happens is we get so many and then it waters down the vote and he winds up

still getting back in.

How do we keep that from happening?

Okay.

It's a good question, but let me tell you how this works.

If you go one-on-one, okay, first of all, let's say you could pick

your ideal candidate, pick your fighter, you pick your fighter, and that guy goes up against him,

and you get one shot, and that's on the first day of the vote. All right. Now the alternate is you have more

than one challenger, in which case you increase the likelihood that there's a runoff.

If you're one-on-one, one or the other is going to win. Okay. Now, the theory goes that if you're one-on-one, it's going to be the Crenshaw supporter
