2018 Midterm Election Thread

[NorthDallas40]

ROFL watching the Cruz O’Rourke debate. At the end the mediators gave each candidate a chance to end on a high note and say something positive about their opponent.

O Rourke was very gracious and offered no digs and ended thanking Cruz for his public service.

Cruz starts on a similar reply and segues into a message of “You're FOS but you genuinely believe it!” I was laughing out loud. O Rourke simply replied “true to form!”

Point to both. Nice shade play by Cruz and classy reply by O Rourke. And pretty damn funny to boot.

Did Beto answer any questions in Spanish?

He isn’t Hispanic is he? He doesn’t look it nor are his parents names Hispanic.

Wait, his name is Beto...

That’s the deal. He changed it to appeal to the Latino voter.

And when the local Latinos are talking about him they annunciate it to make him sound Hispanic also. I remember a few years back when he was running for Congress when I first saw him I was like “Beto”?

Bingo.

I like how he's brave for admitting his DUI and "owning" it. Problem is, his version of the story omits that he went over into the oncoming lane(s) of traffic and then tried to leave the seen but was stopped by people at the scene.

So brave.

Yep. It came up during the debate. He dodged it. He’s had plenty of practice answering it.

He actually tried to join the Hispanic Caucus when he was first elected to the house. They said no because he’s not Hispanic.

O’Rourke is as Hispanic as La’Quandarius is Caucasian.

Dude is more Irish than a leprechaun swigging Jameson.

seriously?

 

[volinbham]

So Dems clearly hate "people of color" if they support a white guy over a Hispanic (Cruz).

He bleeds Guinness and poops Shepherd's Pie. When he pops a zit, mashed potatoes come out.

If you ever want to see how to crater a campaign, just follow Ron Desantis and his minions around, boys and girls.

New racial controversy batters DeSantis

The socialist idiot ain't gonna win down here, moonbeam. Retirees don't wanna pay taxes.

Can a red hat explain to me how this is supposed to reflect poorly on Beto?

 

[Orange_Crush]

is he talking about the guy that got killed because a female police officer supposedly went into the wrong apartment she thought was hers?

It so, Cruz needs to back off and start asking the same questions Beto is asking.

 

[roosterjbh]

I think McCaskill and Nelson will lose. I believe we will see a scenario where Dems take the house and Rs increase their majority in the Senate.

 

[SLICKYINC]

This is brutal. Watch till the end.
