Part of that is to innoculate their base from surprises in the future and also to deflect charges from Republicans that the press didn’t open up their past to scrutiny. By doing a superficial pass on declared Democrat candidates early, they avoid both problems without doing lasting damage to them. “Yeah, Yeah, they did some stuff. Here it is. Let’s move on...”

Now they can rave about what a rich, diverse field of awesome (but human) candidates they have.

Even a despised Republican is better than a Communist.

He is only despised by the Stupid and Bitter among us.

The leftist MSM media propaganda machine wants a female President. One of color preferably.

Let’s make sure they get a lump of coal instead.

They want the ineligible Ms. Harris.
The Kenyanesian Usurpation must be legitimized by doubling down.

Mark Levin has dubbed him “Beto O’Dork”.

Beto bashed here.

Bernie bashed a couple weeks ago.

Gillibrand attacked by CNN’s Jake Tapper.

This smells of... Clintons.

Hillary is so delusional. Don’t be surprised if she runs again and the super delegates and fixed DNC nominate her.

Democratic party is totally obsessed with race. They learned nothing from 2016. Instead they are doubling down on identity politics.

Don’t advance the Left’s subterfuge.

He is ROBERT O’Rourke.

Hillary and her minions in the media are hoping that if they only exert enough pressure on Trump he will cry uncle and hand over power to her.

They have to first get rid of Trump, then bump Pence out of the way, then Pelosi is president. But, how do they get from Pelosi to Hillary? That is the question.

They are quite delusional.

His nickname alone makes him a non-starter against an alpha like Trump. Alpha vs. Beto is a ridiculously easy turn of phrase and psychosemantically crushing.

See post at 31.

So, if Pelosi became prez she could then make Hillary her VP.

Them stinking dastard bastards.

Thank God for our military.

Obviously I don’t like “Beto” O’Rourke, but this article makes NO SENSE.

Why wouldn’t some woman be able to do this same thing, travel around and post about it? And, quite frankly, what’s wrong with it?

This writer seems to have a hatred for this guy because he’s a. a guy and b. white. That seems pretty racist and sexist to me. Oh yeah and I guess he didn’t beat Cruz, but you know, that’s not a crime either.

That idiot in Houston is a “Yale trained lawyer”, too. Sheila Jackson Lee. So I am not real impressed.
