When Beto O’Rourke made Republicans sweat a little by giving Ted Cruz an actual run for his money in Texas last year that SHOULD have been a wakeup call for the GOP.

There have been a couple of questions lately about how Beto came so close to beating Cruz, so I’m leaving this here.  The first time I heard Dana on this issue was the day after Cruz won.

I wish Twitchy’s style was a little less !!!TABLOID!!! but whatever.

There are nearly 80 million reasons Beto came close in that race.

For comparison, John Cornyn spent about of $17 million in 2014.  Democrat David Alameel spent almost $6 million.
