3. Abbott's team insisted the debate take place "on a Friday night during football season in Texas."

Hm.

Abbott's so out of it. Guess he never heard of the internet. It can be played anytime anywhere any day. Hell, I am from MA and I just saw it.

4. And with no audience even though the families came from Uvalde??

Hoping not only that Texans tune in, but that they're aware that Abbott wanted to prevent them from watching...

5. Twitter is aware of it.

Damn fine job. Beto.

[Rhiannon12866]

6. Agreed! We've seen some good candidates over the years, but Beto is in a class all his own!

7. Hope

Hope is spelled “BETO” for many of is. Alternate spelling: “PETE”.

Democrats have more than a few stars in its universe.

Alternate spelling: Gavin, Kamala, and Katie.

Democrats have a decisive edge over Republicans in talent, intelligence, and charisma.
Republicans cheat.

End of story.

On edit: one more time, Go Beto. Gobeto.

8. You're absolutely right - and there is no comparison.

I truly believe that Beto has a bright future and Pete certainly does, too. I think what we have is called a deep bench. How anyone can vote for the dishonest blowhards on the other side is a complete mystery to me. And we have them here in New York, too. I'm in NY-21 and we're stuck with Stefanik who only gets worse by the day. This was a Democratic district until our long-time Rep. retired and she was inexplicably elected. There have been protests at her headquarters since the very fist day, but instead of paying attention, she's only doubled down. After the impeachment hearings there were billboards throughout the district, I used to pass this one on my way home:
