People delude themselves into thinking the Anglo-Saxon Protestant parts matter but plenty of Jewish and Catholics at places like Exeter and Philips Andover

Guy didn't think through his tweet.
Dude is getting crushed in the replies, and it's very deserved. Fleischer is a god damned idiot.

Honestly I think he just sees similarities in the tone of their campaigns. Democrats fall in love and Beto brought that Hopey / Changey like tone.
His ability to raise money without PAC donations was something else. He brought out the the youth and minority vote and Dems saw a lot of down ballot gains from him.
By Dark PhaZe Go To Postcant tell if that should be taken as bams betraying joe or joe low key not wanting to fuk with this shitor maybe he just wants the best man to win.
Better to have some good competition than betting it all on Hillary like in the last election.
By DY_nasty Go To PostThe guy got into striking distance running for the senate in fucking Texas. I'd put that accomplishment above most of the potential nominees that have won elections in safe districts or states. I mean for instance I don't suspect Kristen Gillibrand would of done better, and I doubt Beto would do any worse if he grew up and ran in New York or California.
i can't believe i missed this
more losers yay :|
IDK, I reserve the right to change my opinion, buuuutttt he carries that Obama/Trump Rorschach quality to him, appeals well to the base, makes moderates feel safe, has great charisma, recognizes the importance of mobilizing urban areas but loves to put effort into connecting with non-urban voters, can raise money like a motherfucker, and seems to be inspiring people to want to come and work their ass off for him.
It really feels like "almost good enough" is the standard across the board these past few years. There's nothing wrong with compromising goals or expectations here and there, but this is entering joke territory. And that applies to just about everything...
If you can't beat Cruz in the middle of this present day cauldron of bullshit, then at what point will you be able to? Also, can we not diminish the YEARS of work that the Democratic party has put into developing Texas too? He didn't solo this. Beto is nice. Cool. But that's losing upwards to an extreme. You can develop leadership instead of rushing people up the ladder out of desperation as well.

Joke territory?
The guy was two points away in Texas while openingly touting gun control, single payer healthcare, and not capitulating the culture wars, for reference the last Democratic challenger to Cruz lost by 17 points and over a million votes.
Like I said, I’m open to changing my mind, but Beto seems to have the formula down right now and I don’t hear anyone naming me a better poised candidate? Like one that you think could of won Texas if the situation was the only path forward given his geographic anchoring?

But he didn't win. Texas was vulnerable like almost no other point in recent memory. Still didn't happen.
There's amazing people who lost everywhere you look if that's logic. I'm not saying throw him in the bushes, I'm just saying it's nonsense that he's supposed to fall upwards to a 2020 presidential run. That's not development. That's just reckless and wasteful.
Edit, and yeah joke territory. Only thing worse than the fleet of notrepublicans is a new wave of potential thrown to the wolves propped up by the same crew that got this whole mess created. it's okay to develop people.

The primaries will do what they do
*shrug *
My prediction is he'd lose narrowly to Biden and itd be Bernie vs Clinton stans 2.0.

Cruz has a higher approval in Texas than Trump and Beto did better vs. Cruz than Trump did in the primaries.
Beto did lose to Cruz but using that against him ignores all context. The analysis is as deep as a puddle.
For the record, I want Sherrod Brown as the 2020 candidate.

Beto should never have given Obama the time of day, just like he never gave the Dems any of his money he raised.
Nobody needs Obama anymore. Anything that Obama can do for Beto, can just be done by Beto on his own, and probably better, with the added benefit of no backlash by association to Obama.
I really think this meeting he took with Obama is just going to end up making Beto look compromised.

Maybe I should've used the word "influenced" or perhaps the words "nefariously influenced" instead?
By Smoke Dogg Go To PostMaybe I should've used the word "influenced" or perhaps the words "nefariously influenced" instead?Don't think Obama can do anything his own family ties haven't... 🤣🤷🤷
By FortuneFaded Go To PostWouldn't Trump's birther accusations against Obama count as Presidential harassment?
But those were true. [/Trump]
By blackace Go To PostDon't think Obama can do anything his own family ties haven't… 🤣🤷🤷
Beto has questionable family ties? First I'm hearing of that.
I'd be voting for Ojeda in the primaries anyway.
