Beto-mania Sweeps Texas

“”No one likes Lyn’ Ted””

I don’t think I gave you permission to speak for me.. In spite of all the ridiculous things happening in the country today, I don’t think we’ve given up the right to our own opinions.

[HamiltonJay]

Ted burned a lot of bridges with his behavior during the 2016 campaign...

With that said, however, he will win re-election handily.. anyone telling you otherwise is selling snake oil.

I see the odd “BETO” bumper sticker or t-shirt, but only occasionally, even here in Houston. Nothing to suggest any great groundswell of support

[Thank You Rush]

“”Just we’re not forgiving him for his lies “”

Who on earth is this “we” you talk about?

[Antoninus]

Same baloney as in 2016. “Is Texas going blue? Can Hillary flip Texas?” Blah, blah, blah. Result? Hillary lost by 9%.

[TXSearcher]

I do NOT want a Democrat elected.

Yeah, you do. That's the only reason you guys continue to post your lying Ted garbage whenever something comes up about Cruz's run against the fake Hispanic Socialist.

Cruz haters should just change their tag lines to: "I support Socialists because Cruz made me mad.

[Jane Long]

LOL....Beto Who?

NoBeto

All Betos are off.

West Texas will never vote Democrat, and East Texas will not vote for a Fake Mexican. In the highly unlikely event that O’Rourke wins, it will be the result of fraud in Houston and Dallas. (We write off San Antonio, where the Mexican population always votes Democrat and Austin, where the Leftists always vote Communist.)

[Jane Long]

Reno....do you even live in TX?

[Reno89519]

Fake Mexican, Fake Americans. Interesting how we both in this election. Unlike Canadian-born Cuban Lyn’ Ted, wasn’t O’Rourke born in the US?

[kanawa]

By the hype I was expecting some ripped he-man, then I watched the video.
The guy’s a beanpole.

No one likes Lyn’ Ted, polls put him in trouble. Sad he wouldn’t step aside and let a Trump Republican run for that seat. I’ve said before, I doubt Lyn’ Ted could get elected dog catcher at this point. He should plan his move back to Canada (or Cuba). Good riddance. Just hope we don’t lose too many other Republican-held seats because of bad candidates, like Heller here in Nevada.

I am a Texan, and your analysis sucks. Beto is roadkill; but your concern for Republicans is duly noted.

[DaxtonBrown]

“Name one... JUST ONE... Congressperson who has done more for the cause of Constitutionally Limited Government than Ted Cruz in the last 8 years... and you’d rather see him gone.

You psychotic zealots are just beyond tedious, deluded, and counter-productive. You’re no different a brain-dead Liberal.”

Worth repeating.

Gotta love the press

300 odd people groundswell of support

30,000 at a Trump Rally, hey look, there are 3 empty seats behind a projection screen, Trump losing support!

However, I still say Cruz should campaign like he is 9 points behind. Don’t give this dweeb any ground

[Fellow Traveler]

Ted will Cruz to victory in the general. The only question will be if he breaks into double digits for his winning percentage. I think that is likely.

The bigger question for me is do I vote against George P. Bush in the general. He is running for another term as Land Commissioner. The problem here is this Bushes is like a cancer. If we let it fester he will metastasize and will be running for governor or senator someday. I have taken to calling his opponent "chemo".

[Army Air Corps]

I have seen one Beto O’Rourke bumper sticker and one Beto O’Rourke T-Shirt, and I live in a college town. I noticed that his campaign swag uses his first name rather than his last name.

[fwdude]

You're preaching to the choir here. I'm hoping he campaigns like he's 9 points behind. I'm getting regular emails from his campaign, and am sure millions of others are, too.

This is Texas. The masks of the Demonicrats is completely off. I think the disgust of most Texans is pegging the meter. Voter turnout will be surprising on the conservative side. Just let Mad Maxine keep preaching her hate.

[TXSearcher]

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?

Keep on playing your delusions......but some of us are dead serious about beating back the Socialists/RINOS that have been destroying our country....and our best chance is right now, while Trump is in office.

Pimping for O'Rourke, by cutting down Cruz, may make you feel good but does nothing to help our country.......or Trump.

Idealogues have no place in this fight, as we've seen with the Never Trumpers, who would have given the White House to the Hildebeast so they could stay pure. I'll take an imperfect candidate over the damn Socialist every day of the week.....and I have no tolerance for anyone who thinks a Socialist in office is better.

[Oklahoma]

You’re too stupid to know when you’ve exposed yourself, and yet you keep doing it.

Anybody attacking Cruz in this race against the democrat is either a closet liberal or dumb.

[mowowie]

Beto?
looks more like a half-retarded Kennedy to me...
