Beto O’Rourke is running to replace Ted Cruz. Literally. Sweat pours off his lean, 6’ 4”-frame as the El Paso Democrat jogs along the southern bank of the Trinity River surrounded by 300-odd supporters and curious voters jogging along with him. Incredibly, they have shown up at 8 a.m. on a Sunday to join him for a double shot of politics and cardio. In between panting breaths, O’Rourke explains to me the origins of this novel campaign event, which has him running several miles under the Texas sun, stopping in the middle to take questions and lingering at the end to pose for selfies. “Some sadistic member of our team,” he recalls, “was like, ‘So we’re doing like six town halls a day in six different counties. We’re driving hundreds of miles every day, we’re visiting all 254 counties. What more could we do? Ah, get up earlier and have running town halls.’”

BULLCHIT!!
No.
Post of the day.
You're out of your mind. And you can stuff that Lyin Ted stuff. That died with the election. You're every bit as bad as the Never-Trumpers still harping on the President.
President Trump needs and wants every Republican candidate to win in the fall. Me too.
Beta male sweeps Texas? Doubt it.

Hmmmm, something about the orientation of that “journalist” comes to mind.
What could it be?
Sorry Sunshine, but I like Ted just fine...........as do many of my fellow Texans.....as evidenced in conversations about the gun grabbing, fake Hispanic, Beto O'Rourke.
Are you an operative of O'Rourke's......or the Deep State? Just have to ask since Beto and the Deep State are the only ones who benefit from your little hate Cruz games.
Good post. Just needed fixin'.
Great post...thanks.
Ted Cruz is an embarrassment to the Republican party. I hope he gets his lyin butt stomped!
Beto O’Rourke will win just like Wendy Davis, oh, wait.
Abortion Barbie and Ken.
Can you think of any time in a prior election cycle where the MSM *didn't* say the Republican was in trouble; no matter what State or office?
Cut off your nose to spite your face. Foolishness.
Go Ted!!! You just inspired me to go donate.
Paddy O’Rourke chances of winning the election are about as good as seeing two Irishmen walking out of a bar on St. Patrick’s Day.
Wow, the Lyn’ Ted pimping Kool-Aid brigade is out in force this morning. A oversensitive it appears. Enjoy your delusion but I suspect some or all of you are paid propagandists for Lyn’ Ted, just like we’ve seen in the past here on FR?
I am waiting on the Survey Monkey Poll, then we will really know.
The Monkey poll said Hillary was going to win Texas by 20 points.
He was up like 9 points in the last poll I read.
So was Hillary
He isn’t killing it, that is the problem. And Ted needs to campaign like he is 9 points behind.
This will be about turn out, if his supporters and/or Trump Supporters stay home, he is done, just like Roy Moore
Cruz shot himself in the foot way too many times over the years. I like him, I hope he wins, but he really needs to campaign and not assume Beto will just lose and he keeps his seat. That was the Hillary plan, and we all know what happened.
This is not a primary
We need Ted’s seat unless you are rooting for Chucky Cheese
