Beto O’Rourke sees stock fall
« on: February 02, 2019, 09:05:48 pm »
Poor Nacho. The dew is off his taco.

O’Rourke has vexed some observers over the past few weeks, first for livestreaming a dentist appointment — a move critics panned as oversharing — and later for documenting a meandering solo road trip in a series of deeply personal blog posts.

He’s also been a bystander as other big names like Sens. Elizabeth Warren (D-Mass.) and Kamala Harris (D-Calif.) have entered the race.

The growing primary field and slow pace of preparations for a potential campaign have left some Democrats wondering if O'Rourke's indecisiveness about whether to be a candidate is hurting him.

“I’m hoping he regains his momentum but he really has in many ways lost his message with the reality TV of teeth cleaning and his undefined road trips,” Robert Zimmerman, a major Democratic donor, said. “Maybe there’s a strategy behind it but it started becoming trivial.”

“It was a bridge too far,” another major Democratic bundler agreed of the teeth cleaning and O’Rourke’s tendency to overshare on social media.

It's true, that dental cleaning should have finished off any presidential aspirations, at least in a rational person. Nacho's self-centered vision quest  about whether to run is ridiculous. (without his family so he appeal to the chicks) He truly is the vanilla bammy, narcissistic and without accomplishments. But the demcoms seem to like that. I heard one political pundit this week say he thought Robert Francis would be the nominee, but I doubt it.

He just a kid being a kid. Any Presidential candidate who would skateboard onstage out to the mike is a child. We may as well elect Bart Simpson.

You cannot "COEXIST" with people who want to kill you.
If they kill their own with no conscience, there is nothing to stop them from killing you.
Rational fear and anger at vicious murderous Islamic terrorists is the same as irrational antisemitism, according to the Leftists.

This dude isn't ready for off-off-Broadway, much less prime time.

Looks like Empty Suit 2.0 crashes on reboot.

He's biding his time, planning his entrance.  I wouldn't count him out.

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
