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.


Not really. They want a year long primary horse race and don’t want any candidate to break away in the beginning. So they are bring Beto back to earth.

McAulliffe still might get in. Forgot about him.

There was a name I didn’t recognize, Williamson. Some nut who is Oprah’s “spiritual adviser”. Ran as an “I” for Congress in 2014 in Cali, got big endorsements, placed 4th.

She polled higher than John Deleany and Steve Bollock.
