Beat-o does not do humility well. He might as well be the arrogant jerk that he is because he’s not good at pretending to be anything but.

It was indeed pathetic. Hard to watch. Like them or not, the old-time Democrats (Truman, JFK, etc.) projected strength. But today’s Democrats are a bunch of whiners and complainers.

They found another young guy - one who likes !@(*#’s shoved up his butt.
That trumps anything Beto has to offer, in their universe of values.

It seems to me that both Jeb and Clinton re-tooled and re-introduced their campaigns in 2015/16. How did that work out for them?

First thing I thought of. I hope he doesn't quit until he's down another hundred million.
