Beto O'Rourke jumps into New Hampshire, All Jets Fired

Whether you're convinced that Beto O'Rourke is the real deal or not, I find this pretty damn amazing. The next 48 hours? O'Rourke is planning to blast through every county in the state.

There's energy and then there's Beto Energy. Whoosh!

Is it pitch black coffee,... no cream,... 10 table spoons of sugar,... does he take it intravenously ?



He looks like a young kid,... but he is almost 50 years old.

Maybe a group of drivers, even they have to sleep to be effective and safe.

I really like Beto's energy. That is what we need, someone to hit the campaign trail at every opportunity during the day and fundraise at night.

... that’s a lot more impressive here in Texas.

He is going to be a machine on the campaign trail. Good luck, sir.

O'Rourke is adding a definite edge of excitement to this early stage of the race. It's one of the reasons I'm really glad he jumped in because eyes are on him and the Democratic Party. I know there's been chatter about the man fizzling or flaming out.

But if this is an example? I'd say:

Flame on, Beto! Flame on.

And yes, if this is a coffee-charged high? I want that brand and recipe!

Scoff if you will, but it’s compelling and fascinating. I don’t know what it’ll end up doing but I watched a lot of those in the Texas race and know a new paradigm when I see one.
