Beto Plans Comeback

2021-09-20

[Axios] Former Rep. Beto O'Rourke is preparing to run for governor of Texas in 2022, with an announcement expected later this year, Texas political operatives tell Axios.

The man is delusional. Still, his candidacy will put billionaire money into the Texas economy, from whence it will trickle in all directions.

O'Rourke's entry would give Democrats a high-profile candidate with a national fundraising network to challenge Republican Gov. Greg Abbott and give O'Rourke, a former three-term congressman from El Paso and 2020 presidential candidate and voting rights activist, a path to a political comeback.
Imagine the look he gets from Dems who've funded his past two losing campaigns

#19 Does he know Texas pass an election law so that Dems can no longer cheat?

#16 What did the Mexican Community say about him; something like "He eats tacos with a fork."

#14 He came close in his Senatorial bid, and we've added a lot more immigrants from California and Mexico since then, plus a lot more dead voters. He has a real good chance.

#13 Bleato is not well thought of by the hispanic community in Texas. Bleato should probably move to another state where he'd have better luck....maybe to Portland or Seattle he'd be able to win a race.

#12 The worst part of this will be the endless press simping for Bobby O'Rourke.

#10 Bobby, that's just the registered gun owners.

#9 I saw this in another article yesterday and was reminded he promised to confiscate all AR-15s in a state with '700,000 registered gun owners - more than any other state.'

Enjoy the use of "Other People's Money", Robert.

#5 The big Texas cities have cheating vote counters now. And he knows it.

#4 I wish him well; he's the top human countermeasure when it comes to Dem money spent poorly.
