Paxton seems to have the edge to upset the incumbent Cornyn, while Talarico has the edge over Crockett on the Democrat side.

Thinking of what I buy from Spain….
A few Riojas….. some chorizo….
I prefer Italian prosciutto to the Spanish, although of course if I could afford Pata Negra I would buy that ( a 4 oz package is like 50 bucks).
I guess I will survive.
“Spanish Pata Negra Bellota ham is the highest grade of Jamón Ibérico, made from 100% purebred Iberian pigs, free-range in Spain’s dehesas and acorn-fed during the montanera season. It is aged for 24–48 months, offering a rich, nutty, and savory, melt-in-the-mouth texture. It is marked by a black label and is renowned as one of the finest delicacies in the world.”

Trump wins the prize for repugnance.
Donald Trump, the self-proclaimed “wartime president” and master of
distraction, has reached a new low in moral depravity with his latest
attack on Volodymyr Zelenskyy as the “P.T. Barnum of Ukraine.”
This repugnant rhetoric is nothing more than a desperate attempt to mask
his own catastrophic incompetence in every area—from foreign policy to
military leadership to basic humanity. By shifting the blame for his own
failures onto Zelenskyy and Ukraine, which has suffered four years of
brutal Russian aggression, Trump exposes himself for what he truly is: a
weak, evil, and utterly repugnant individual incapable of taking
responsibility.
