Beta O'Rourke must have just realized the Ted Cruz dinner protest sunk his chances

Beto O'Rourke
@BetoORourke

US Senate candidate, TX
Not right that Senator Cruz and his wife Heidi were surrounded and forced to leave a restaurant last night because of protesters. The Cruz family should be treated with respect.

The backlash here is that this just made Cruz very sympathetic to voters and the public will associate this harassment as part of Beta's campaign. Texas is going to be a Red Wave again.

Democrats have run out of clues as to how to attract normal Americans.

If I was Ted, I would post a video of the Dems calling for this kind of crap and make O'Rourke own his party's platform.

That was inevitable. You have to be a normal American to know one.

Cruz should run clips of that along with other R's getting harassed as an ad.

It would play very very well in Texas. "This is what we are dealing with."

There is a reason the MSM is not reporting the Cruz incident. All of these "protest" have backfired so far.

Im sure since one of the protesters mentioned Beto by name(male protester btw) “And Beto is way hotter than you”.

It never had a shot to be blue to begin with.

It could be that he legitimately believes what was done to Cruz and his wife was wrong.

It could also be that he is just using it as a way to achieve some points on ethics and morals.

It could also be that this was well orchestrated and he knew about it coming up and had his statement ready to go.

These days politics have gotten so bad that any one of those points have an equal chance of validity.

Almost seems like he's apologizing for his party's actions without actually apologizing. I do not believe Beto is a scumbag, but his party certainly is.

This is the kind of logic that drives dems to vote.

And that's because the democrat party no longer has any normal Americans in it.

i think Beto's ideas are really bad, but he seems to be a decent enough fellow. he's ran a very positive campaign. i'll give him the benefit of the doubt on this one. i say this as a guy who kinda has a bit of rage every time i see one of his signs.

I don't think they care. They've thrown in their lot with those who hate normal society and poor people they can bus to the polls

The use of violence and intimidation tactics are the only things Democrats know.

That dipshit would've remained quiet about the Cruz situation had it not blown up.
