His campaign for the senate against Ted Cruz in 2018 ended in failure.
His campaign for the Democrat Party’s presidential nomination in 2019 ended in epic, buffonish failure.
His campaign to turn Texas blue in 2020 ended in abject, hilarious failure.
So, naturally, Irish Bob “Beto” O’Rourke, the undeservedly-famous deletant offspring of a fabulously wealth family married to a fabulously wealth wife in El Paso, Texas, is now considering mounting yet another destined-to-fail campaign in 2020.
This time, Irish Bob is exploring the possibility of running for the Texas governor’s mansion, against either incumbent Gregg Abbott – who is likely to run for re-election – or against another GOP candidate should Abbott decided to bow out after two terms in office.
Here’s an excerpt from a slavishly-fawning story at the ridiculous Houston Chronicle:
Democrat Beto O’Rourke has left no doubt that he’s weighing a run for governor next year.
“You know what, it’s something I’m going to think about,” O’Rourke said in an exclusive interview on an El Paso radio station earlier this week.
And in case anyone missed the interview, supporters of a political action committee O’Rourke started called Powered By People is circulating it on social media.
The former congressman from El Paso, who lost a close race for U.S. Senate in 2018, told KLAQ host Buzz Adams that Texas has “suffered perhaps more than any other” state during the pandemic and criticized Gov. Greg Abbott for a “complete indifference” to helping local leaders try to save lives.
“I want to make sure we have someone in the highest office in our state who’s going to make sure that all of us are OK,” the 48-year-old O’Rourke said. “And especially those communities that so often don’t get the resources or attention or the help, like El Paso.”
[End]
So, hey, looks like we’ll have Irish Bob to kick around again in 2022. Fan girls and boys on staff at the Chronicle, the Texas Tribune, the New Yorker and Vanity Fair are not doubt already outlining their future feature stories on their punk-rocker crush.
And before anyone sends me a nasty note saying that last remark isn’t fair, let me answer in advance: Why yes, yes it is completely fair and incisively accurate, and you’re a pea-brained nitwit if you don’t agree.
Hooboy.
That is all.
Sooner or later there will be enough illegals and CA transplants to elect the likes of Beto.
I thought the unspeakable Biden was going to appoint this asswipe the gun confiscation czar?
He should explore his backside with a mirror and flashlight.
I wouldn’t laugh too hard... Texas isn’t blue yet, but it isn’t the ruby-red bastion it once was.
No kidding. Sadly, the future of Texas is available for preview in AZ and GA.
Sooner or later there will be enough illegal ballots found to elect Beto to the Presidency.
Beatoff is just using his wife’s money to achieve a goal.
“...deletant offspring...”
Spell check is your friend.
He must be investing $$$$ in Chinese made mail in ballots and Dominion Voting Systems hoping they will be used in the Texas election.
If Georgia can “elect” soyboy Jon Ossoff, Texas can “elect” Beto. Same methods, same result.
not in Texas in 2022.
Buttigieg is the new shiny toy now!
If this man offers you a plate of Avocado Salad, DO NOT EAT it!! This is a warning from Mrs. Beto.
The Bill of Rights isn’t the Law of The Land to Democrats. To them it is a checklist of things to get rid of.
He lost by 2% running as lefty, not as a, “Texas conservative Democrat.” Texas is becoming more Democrat everyday, unfortunately.
He should run with Wendy Davis, aka Abortion Barbie. Another loser.
