« Do Americans Really Dislike Political Correctness? | Main | "You Just Don't Know What's Best For You," And Other Pearls From The Elites »
October 22, 2018

It's Fun To Laugh At Ole' B-E-T-O.

So, various groups of Texas Progs have decided that what Beto really needs is a slew of citizen produced ads to drive home how loonie they are and that they're-totally-not-a-cult-guys. Like this:


Of course the little girl has no idea what's going on, she's just dancing, but when has that ever stopped lefties from using kids as props (not that the Right is innocent of this, but it's much less prevalent).

Then there's this “comedy” group, “Esther’s Follies “, out of Austin. They style themselves the “SNL of Austin” (talk about a low bar). Anyhow, they figured that Beto is all dreamy and shit, so they did a Grease parody to help everyone else see just how dreamy he is.

I'm sure that both of these efforts will go a long way towards convincing Texans that Beto is a sober and serious candidate for the important responsibilities required of a Senator.

In any event, I don't get why so many people are misreading this race. It's not about winning the Senate race. Beto is toast in Texas. It's all about raising a large war chest (check), garnering loads of favorable national press (check) and presenting himself as a superficially hip dude (check) in preparation for a presidential run in 2020. Frankly, I doubt whether any candidate that doesn't check off any grievance or identity boxes (although I think he's pretending to be Hispanic) has a snowball's chance of winning a national nomination in today's Democrat party, but with such a weak field shaping up for 2020, you never know. Beto is attempting to follow the Bill Clinton path to the White House, it remains to be seen if he has the political chops to pull it off. Slick Willie was a rare specimen indeed, frankly I doubt that someone else could pull together the political savvy and raw charisma to duplicate his run, anymore than those politicians attempting to emulate Trump will succeed. Some things are just one-of-a-kind.
