Am listening to him answering questions. He will bury others with his facts and figures.

Cruz had to cheat to beat him!

He also said no matter who is chosen we have to back them!

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

I woke up to see an e-mail from Beto. I got to talk to Beto at the National Convention just briefly. In early 2017, Beto spoke to a small group at a tavern in my county. My son and I got to see Beto up close and he is amazing. I made a couple of rallies and heard him at the state convention. Beto is perhaps the best retail politician that I have seen since President Obama.

I like Beto a great deal and Beto could flip Texas which is a goal that I have been working towards for a very long time. I am still torn between Beto, Biden and Harris but my main goal is anyone but sanders.

But Beto has always been first and Klobuchar second. I mentioned that last November. I didn't want to do it officially until Beto entered.

Beto is great but I'm worried we'll look for silly reasons to devalue him, like the John Edwards comparisons that I have seen today.

We should be comparing that 52-42 favorable approval rating that Beto managed in Texas to some of our other Democrats. For example, Abrams is a favorite here but she was slightly underwater at 48-49 in Georgia. Abrams would have won if she had maintained favorability like Beto did. I don't think that 52-42 receives 1% the attention it deserves.
