Lol

Beto is apparently not running.

Of course he's running

Hm? He is running per Texas TV station.

He's got a Vanity Fair cover story and was apparently teasing an announcement tomorrow this afternoon

Our next president

God I hope not. There are like a half dozen Democrats running who aren't socialists but also have accomplished something in their lives more impressive than losing a race for Senate. Hopefully one of them gets picked.

I wish phan and slugs would post links when they say this stuff

Plenty of Presidents with lots of experience have sucked.

Not a lot to attack since he has little history. Feels like a positive instead of a negative. Didn't hurt Trump or Obama.

Take away the abortion plank from the Republicans and the Dems or social capitalists are in power indefinitely.

How would you actually do that?

Stack the court with pro life and then the Republican party will shrivel once that is done.

That is the fastest way to get the Dems in power for a very long time. We really need to do that since the party of Nixon is now anti world survival. As you may recall, the world was much worse in many ways prior to the EPA laws. If you do not recall look it up. Yes, thins were worse than climate change. pollution was everywhere, rivers were on fire, and then Nixon fixed all that.

really

To maintain a livable world we must have Dem control. So lets get the abortion thing over with. The worst thing to ever happen to Republicans is illegal abortion.

I mean, he's got personal baggage with the DUI/fleeing, and he's got 6 years of voting in Congress.

He hasn't accomplished anything, which means there's nothing he's done politically in the real world that can be attacked, but he's not running as a blank slate.

And he's not some uber compelling speaker like Obama.

I am not the target audience by any means, but I just really do not get the Beto thing.

Al Gore for President.

I wish phan had an interpreter.

Charisma.

I disagree. Think he is good at speeches. He's really good at answering questions too, wether from a voter or Chris Hayes.

He raised a zillion dollars too. So he's got that going for him.

Folks I'd vote for:
Weld
Kasich
Klobuchar
Booker
Biden
Buttigieg

Folks I'd vote for vs Pence
Harris
Gillebrand
Warren

Folks I'd never vote for
Pence
Sanders
Gabbard

Not negging him, but didn’t he raise a bazillion dollars because he was running against Ted Cruz?

Sorry it’s a pet peeve of mine but I did it anyway. I think I misread the tweet from the MSNBC guy and don’t see it anymore. I’m glad I’m wrong.

After it was clear this afternoon Robert Francis was announcing tomorrow a tweet from November 2018 where he categorically ruled out running started getting retweeted a lot.

But that was four months ago so a lot has changed.
