I do not know if O'Rourke's presidential campaign has a theme song, but from the point of view of his ability to win a future state wide race in Texas, he might as well be using Burning Bridges, from Kelly's Heroes.

Friends all tried to warn me
But I held my head up high

All the time they warned me
But I only passed them by

They all tried to tell me
But I guess I didn't care

I turned my back and
Left them standing there

All the burning bridges that have fallen after me
All the lonely feelings and the burning memories

Everyone I left behind each time I closed the door
Burning bridges lost forevermore

No. Nor will he beat the guy who will likely beat Cornyn in the primary.

BINGO! We have a winner!

Maybe after Beat'off fixes crime infested Houston he can show us how.. Anyone catch the irony of a left wing rag asking a fake Mexican to come home and fix its problems?
Where have I heard that before?

Why don’t they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. Then come back and show us how.

Does the primary guy have a good chance of beating rino cornyn?

**************

Probably not ... here’s a list of those running for the opp.

West rounds out a primary race that includes Houston City Councilwoman Amanda Edwards,
who announced her run last week, former congressional candidate and Air Force pilot
MJ Hegar and former Houston Congressman Chris Bell. Beaumont NAACP Chair Michael Cooper
and Sema Hernandez — the runner-up to Beto O’Rourke in the 2018 primary to challenge
U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz — are also running.
