Just like the media hyped Wendy Davis in 2014, the media hype for Beto O’Rourke has largely been the driver of his popularity.
Don’t take our word for it. Evan Smith, the CEO and co-founder of The Texas Tribune, tweeted the following out several weeks about O’Rourke:
The humping of @BetoORourke’s leg by every magazine in America is, well, something#txsen #tx2018
11:46 AM - Aug 30, 2018
People complained about what Smith said but it was not a reflection on Beto, but rather the fawning media coverage. “Oh, look! There’s Beto on a skateboard!†“Oh, look! Beto played in a punk band!†“Oh, look! Beto drives around to all the counties!â€

Beto was fun in a sick way while he lasted.
But's it over.
-
I never bought into the notion that Cruz was ever in any real danger. Dukakis ‘88 hype for the opponent.
-
Beto's anti-gun comments are coming back to bite him. I know some old 'yellow dog dems' who were old union democrats who didn't like that.
-
When you sample according to the the established mid-term election model, suddenly Republicans start leading these polls. It's darn amazing.
-
I disagree with the headline! In Texas the blue wave has receded, but across the nation its definitely a toss up!

All the out-of-state money funding the media blitz won't work. The fake Hispanic is a moronic leftist.

Right, and I wish that Soros had expended ALL of his money on this race but, unfortunately, that evil old dude has a bottomless pit of money.
He can't take it with him but he can do a lot of harm with it here.

Yeah, but a toss up includes a pile of Rats that were not even on the radar a couple months ago. Even NJ is in play.

Why would they complain? I thought the comment was hysterical.

Yeah, the comment was really funny. I would add: 'oh, look, Beto says the F-word just like all the rest of us cool people do."
