[OFFICIAL] Beto for Governor in 2022 thread

So you think people will forget and mudslinging ads will not mention it?

Beto is done as a statewide contender, at least for 10-20 years when the demographics flip to blue. (which is suspect with Trump rhetoric gobbling up Latino votes).

 

As good as anyone else
Dunno anyone else that could possible knock Hot Wheels over

Now we need to find someone to slap the **** out of the Lt Governor Ass Stain
(electorially speaking of course )

Need to find a whole bunch of voters who would vote for Ann Richards.

 

From Ann Richards to Dubbyah, Perry, and Abbot.

 

For some reason I think it needs to be an older woman, they can bring the no bullshit shame more credibly. And, bring over some suburban women. I think people can relate to their Moms or Grammas. A killer wit would help. Is there anyone in the State like that? I looked at the Texas Women's Democratic caucus and the women that challenged last year and I don't see one.

 

carol keeton-rylander-strahorn-mcclellan ("one tough grandma") tried that shtick about 15 years ago and it went down like a lead balloon. beto actually reminds me of her in that she was always chasing a political job, running in election after election and losing.

 

Oh no - they will still use it as a talking point but it's the only way I see him trying to extinguish the fire he started - at least try too extinguish the fire. You can't ignore it and even worse (a Trump move) double down and repeat it.

 

Dubbyah was a good governor. I didn't hate him like I hated Perry and Abbot.

 

For the democrats to win you need a charismatic moderate that says how it is. I had high hopes for MJ, except she had no personality at all and all she did was run attack ads while saying she was a combat veteran. We need to find a young Lloyd Benson.

 

88% of Americans do not own a gun. We are being terrorized, killed and disabled by these guns.

 

Beto has no charisma
I don’t even think he can do infomercials

 

where are you getting that stat from? because its way off.

 

^ according to this source below: "about 40% of adult Americans own a gun or live with someone who does" .

https://wamu.org/story/20/09/18/how-many-people-in-the-u-s-own-guns/

So basically that 40% is a household count. You'd have to count individuals including children for anything close to 12%

 

Unless there's a 2014 Wendy Davis type breakout in this legislative session the Texas Democrats should run someone like Matthew McConaughey.

Beto is a no go for too many people.

 

No

 

what a diverse group
