ParentPAC's bipartisanship

In the comments to my earlier post on the Texas ParentPAC endorsement of Sherrie Matula, the following question was asked:

I was excited to see their endorsements and applaud them for the way they wrote the endorsements but if they are endorsing ZERO Republicans don't their endorsements become increasingly less news worthy?

If everyone of their endorsements is the "D" then there is no suspense and may even be less inherent value to it, perhaps. Thanks!

I sent that comment to ParentPAC founder Carolyn Boyle. This is her response:

Texas Parent PAC endorsed and provided funding to 17 Republicans in the primary and special elections and 2 Democrats. We are trying to even it up now, as it is a bipartisan PAC, but it is doubtful that an equal amount of money will be spent on the endorsed Democrats (unless we have a ton of donations in the next few weeks). Next week we will be endorsing for the general election some of the Republican candidates endorsed in the primaries that have general election opponents: Drew Darby (H.D. 72), Jimmie Don Aycock (H.D. 54), Diane Patrick (H.D. 94), and Thomas Latham (H.D. 101). We'll also be endorsing some Republican and Democratic incumbents.

I hope that answers the question.
