Beto O’Rourke Doesn’t Have A Base
Nate Silver reporting on why Beto is only polling at 3%
@JohnPhilpin Another way to put it is that he doesn't have a chance and should find some better way to spend his time. I've never understood his appeal. Most recently I saw him doing a mea culpa for the fact that his ancestors were slave owners. I guess he's the reparations candidate, but does anyone actually take him seriously at all?
@Ron i don’t dislike him - he just never was presidential materiaL IMHO .. ME back in March ... basically bundling him with all the wannabes trying to make a name for themselves (which they are - but for all the wrong reasons) ... and taking their eyes of the senate -which is FATAL - because if the dems don’t win the senate - it really doesn’t matter who wins the presidency - McConnell will continue to block
@JohnPhilpin Yes, I think he'd be better as a popular fraternity brother. As for the rest, as long as the dems let AOC drive the agenda, the current Pres will be re-elected with a bigger margin than in 2016.
