Beto O'Rourke, the democratic congressman from El Paso, has just finished the first of the day's three campaign events, an early-morning house party in Tyler, Texas, and is now high-tailing toward a second meet-and-greet 115 miles away in Texarkana, determined to squeeze in an extra, unscheduled stop. O'Rourke wants to overtake "the Beto Bus" – a raucous, 45-foot vessel scooping up supporters of his long-shot bid to unseat Sen. Ted Cruz – currently lumbering somewhere up ahead on an East Texas highway. O'Rourke's longtime chief of staff, David Wysong, is privately skeptical of the plan. "It has a lot of moving parts," he mutters more than once. O'Rourke loves it. He loved it too when one of the organizers of this morning's event pulled alongside the car to insist he not leave town without eating at Stanley's Famous Pit BBQ. Now, open-faced brisket sandwich in his lap, a little cup of barbecue sauce perched on the armrest, and with 20 minutes of lost time to make up, O'Rourke glances at Wysong, navigating a steep stretch of highway, and says with a grin, "No sudden moves."

him teaming with McCain to kill repeal of Obamacare.
That did not happen. And despite what you apparently believe, repeating it over and over doesn't make it so.
Again, Ted Cruz is only one of three senators with a lifetime 100 percent conservative rating. He has done more than any senator except perhaps Mike Lee to defend our principles. And he supported President Trump.
And teh bill you reference was not repeal. Cruz, Paul, and Lee were trying to make it closer to real repeal. McCain and his cohorts were trying to keep Obamacare in place. Completely different.
L I know that's very complicated for you.

You sound like lyin Reno89519...lol
You will never drown out the personality cultists they are as feverent and deranged as Hillary supporters in their loss. The only ones hell bent on continuously mentioning Cruz are those holding a mental tick.
Lyin Ted, lying Ted. Sounds like a damn parrot. If we feed you a cracker will you be quiet?
Arguing over the definition of is. Wonderful. End result was that Lyn’ Ted, McCain, and others said No, despite Trump urging support. Lyn’ Ted and McCain. Sure, they can offer up their own reasons, heck Lyn’ Ted has tried that before, as one example, with his 500% increase in H1B. But take another swig of Kool-Aid and whitewash it.
He co-sponsored a bill to stop H1B. But don’t let that confuse you.
You Kool-Aid drinking progandizing for President Trump to the very end is showing.

LOL. POTUS delivers more conservative results before breakfast everyday than the junior senator from Texas ever will in his entire “lifetime.”
But keep on worshiping your favorite do-nothing pet conservative on the GOP plantation if that is your hobby. Cruz and the rest of the GOP have been exposed as useless beltway careerists. The GOP will reform led by POTUS or it will die. It’s that simple.
And yes, I originally supported him, gave him hundreds of dollars. My worst investment ever politically. Shamed that I gave good money to a serial liar.
Good luck trying to talk some sense into a devoted Cruzlim. Loving eyes can never see. We’ve seen beltway kabuki in the Senate for years. Cruz, Rand and the rest of the “true conservatives” in the Senate have delivered exactly nothing. There is no reason to believe that will change.
Two declared Dems for the US Senate seat.
Sema Hernandez, baseball coach and small business owner
Beto O’Rourke, U.S. Representative
Outside of one of them having a place on the statewide ballot
for senator it won’t be a competitive race by any means, imo.
Thank you for showing that you are impervious to evidence, you’re a hater (which I thought was a progressive thing), and you have zippo understanding of conservative or constitutional principles.
You mean, like promoting citizenship for the "dreamers", like backing the non-repeal of Obamacare, like refusing to do anything about the Klintoons, like raising tax rates on the rich, like endorsing the Establishment candidate in Alabama over the conservative candidate, and more?
Kind of weird that nobody here noticed that Beto was wearing a flower print DRESS in the pic referenced.
I saw it but didn’t think it was worth commenting on. jmo
You say lying Ted but what about Lying Trump, where is the boarder wall, why hasn’t Obama Care been done away with. Trump said he was going to do all that does that make him a liar. I knew when he said all of that he wasn’t going to be able to do it but people like you who like the name calling just went along like he wouldn’t have to get approval from congress and the senate. Cruz has worked with Trump so get over your personal hatred for the man or you can continue to be a jackass and continue with your name calling oh and I already know the choice your will make....lol
Very good point
Beta O’Cuck, the Faux Hispanic.
I still haven’t forgiven him yet. I’m sure I will.
Ted Cruz goes on a jingle offensive against new Democratic opponent
