LOL

Hard to get above 400 EVs anymore because of the bunch of solid blues.

But I think he can get med 300s.

I’ll still be volunteering hard.

He was feeling good, feeling right, zoom zoom zooming along! Suddenly there was a crash. Oh, dear! Now it’s time to get away. Go, little Democrat! You go.

The Ballroom of the University of Iowa Memorial Union holds 700 people, so Beto ‘Whitey’ O’Rourke had a 1/7th capacity crowd in uber-liberal Iowa City ... what a hoot!!

Was thinking of switching over to Democrat this season but just can’t decide on what complete numbskull to vote for in the Primary. There’s so many. It’ll be like a village idiot convention. It’s sad that AOC is too young to run.

Whitey O’Rourke performed as well as he did in the Texas Senate race because Ted Cruz is very damaged goods. He can’t do as well in other races, and he shares the cultural appropriation anchor with Elizabeth Warren.

He waited too long. Straight, white, male. All negatives. He should have announced no later than week after he lost the senate and start barnstorming the country. He could have gotten a jump on everyone else. Instead he’s just some manic dude. Nothing to set him apart from the other simpletons.

I was thinking he could get a job as a helicopter if the president thing doesn’t work out.

It’s sad that AOC is too young to run.

The reason it's very difficult to predict who will win the rat nomination is because the rat with all the momentum, AOC, is ineligible to run. So, you're essentially trying to figure out who will finish second.

It’s Iowa - if that’s the reception they gave the dirt eating skateboard doofus, imagine how they are going to treat gun grabbing Heels Harris out of California. Yeepsh

Trump should do a rally in the same town, then highlight the enthusiasm gap, in front of the media

Fauxahontas got that many the other day when she opened her first beer. Of course she’s running third in Massachusetts. Need to go buy more popcorn...

He needs to stay in the race and not switch gears to take on Cornyn.

He’s a white guy, therefore he doesn’t have a chance in the Democrat Party. They are already starting to reap what they sow.

Looks to me like Beto got more attendees than candidate Hillary did (smirk).

The bottom of the barrel candidate-——addressing six attendees.....is wannabe NY Mayor Bill De Blobbio.

The empty back of the room is where the truth is told in these campaign events. ;-)

Does anyone from these large crowds actually donate their own money?

Did beta give away free hotdogs and beer to draw such a YUGE crowd?
