Momma There Goes That Man Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 2 hours ago, Cooked Crack said: This guy bout to drive every inch of the Midwest. Republicans about to be attacking him on gas guzzling and releasing so much CO2 pretty soon. He is going to put in the work. I think he can resonate with people even more once he gets his policies out there and does a town hall or do two. He’s more progressive than a lot of people think but he doesn’t have a reputation as a “crazy socialist” like Sanders and Warren etc do. That will help him. He will be able to own that campaign trail in a way that Trump won’t which would be a huge factor in the general and deciding those key Midwest states. 4 minutes ago, visionary said: Terrible look for Yang.

Maybe NC is in play though I'm skeptical. No one with state wide name recognition has stepped forward yet so they have a ton of work to do. I would not have a POTUS candidate spend much time here either. That was a huge mistake for Hillary and most objective people here knew that. 11 hours ago, visionary said: Who was telling us Tulsi Gabbard was someone to watch for and was right on some issues?

If by her backers you mean Assad and Putin, you might have a point. Otherwise she is blaming Dems and the Media for investigating Trump/Russia for a potential arms race. Also, Trump is not doing much of anything to prove he’s not Putin’s ****. In fact, given the lifting of sanctions recently on individuals it’s kinda the opposite.

PleaseBlitz Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/beto-orourke-reports-raising-more-than-61-million-in-first-day-of-campaign-the-highest-total-yet-among-presidential-candidates/2019/03/17/fef8e4b2-490a-11e9-b79a-961983b7e0cd_story.html?utm_term=.296a86b545f7 Beto O’Rourke reports raising more than $6.1 million in first day of campaign, the highest total yet among presidential candidates Quote Beto O’Rourke reported raising more than $6.1 million during the first 24 hours of his presidential campaign, a record-setting haul that narrowly tops the amount announced by Sen. Bernie Sanders and dwarfs everyone else in the 2020 field. O’Rourke was a fundraising juggernaut during his U.S. Senate race in Texas last year, but there were significant questions about whether that would translate to a national campaign where he was running against fellow Democrats, not Republican Sen. Ted Cruz. The answer appears to be yes. O’Rourke’s campaign said he raised $6,136,763 from donations that came from all 50 states, D.C., and every U.S. territory.

People are shamed for going to certain schools, for practicing a certain faith, for their gender, their race, or for using the wrong words, regardless of intent. Politics at the presidential level, the successful kind, could not be more different. Winning campaigns find a way to build coalitions, to unite people with shared values under an umbrella of charisma and a succinct message that rises above the din of Washington. This is how Democrats have won the presidency in the past. Maybe, in the Trump moment, politics calls for a sharper edge. But the Democrats who are confident in their reasons for running, and who aren’t afraid of what very smart people on Twitter say about them, are the ones likely to be rewarded.

FanboyOf91 Posted March 18, 2019 Share Posted March 18, 2019 1. Thoroughly enjoying the progressive panic at Beto's slowroll of his fundraising numbers. Also, calling him a 'white Obama' is not the finishing move you think it is. 2. Biden should be very worried about Beto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My understanding is that Beto did not release the number of individual donors, so Bernie is just making an assumption based on very little and couching it as "more than likely" which is a nice piece of lawyering. The more important question is, why even say anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
