Politico: Beto O'Rourke 'Is Now Manufacturing Suspense'
Newsbusters ^ | March 11, 2019 | P.J. Gladnick

Could Politico have already reached peak Beto and is now on the downward slope from the zenith?

Despite their own senior media Jack Shafer back in October begging "Stop the Press Before It Profiles Beto O’Rourke Again," the paeans to failed senate candidate Beto O'Rourke have continued unabated at Politico. However, that might have changed on Saturday when Politico writer David Siders expressed how irked he was with their beloved Beto appearing to be playing games as to whether he would announce his candidacy for president that he wrote that he "is now manufacturing suspense."

After months of adulatory hyping, it is just now dawning upon Politico that Beto is just a shallow showboater.

Of course one has to care before one can experience a feeling of suspense.

Politico is now manufacturing interest in a pasty white bland Irish drunk.

And all the people said:

Yawn.

You mean Bob the Irish guy that pretends he is hispanic?

For the record, everyone called him Bob growing up and NOT Beto.

That is a FAKE NAME to appeal to hispanics. Bob was even rejected by the Hispanic caucus because he does not have any Spanish blood.

When you watch Robert the Irish guy who pretends he is hispanic speak he flails his arms around like he’s fighting off fleas.

Is this supposed to be dramatic effect? Is it to draw attention away from his dumb statements and foolish policy?

Politico is naught but a rag posing as a political predictor that is never right!!! Democrat, Beto O’Rourke is nothing but a certified zero that is going nowhere whatsoever.

Democrat, Joe Biden will be the Democrat Party nominee for POTUS in 2020. Why? There is no else qualified in the current Democrat Party. And...for that matter, neither is “Uncle” Joe Biden qualified, either!!!

Francis

Not Beto

There is nothing wrong with Francis as a name. It’s a good name. Especially for an Irishman.

Remember: Just Say No to Fake Hispanics

Beta O’Rourke is just one of many Democrats who will vie for the right to be humiliated by President Trump next year.

With The Bernie and Joey leading, BIG TIME, in the ‘RAT primary polls, Burrito Beto might want to get ride of the sombrero, the sarape and Baja Marimba Band music and start acting white. I don’t think the Mehican thing is working for him. Pelosi might say, “He doesn’t ‘sparkle’ enough.”

He acts and talks like a meth head. Lots of words, not much meaning but bouncing and flailing all over the place!

Robert Francis is all hype.

Unless you want the borders wide open and no enforcement of immigration laws. Bet he has a lot of support among fraudulently documented foreigners.
