        Whats your point? They still win their races and he didnt. All he has proven is he can get people to like him (btw I am one of them...I like him a lot) which is great. Call me after a debate or two and then we can discuss if he is ready for prime time or not.

        I think the guy is intriguing...but I wouldnt put my money on him at the top of the ticket. He fits VP better because unlike say Klobuchar or Warren or Harris or Booker he wouldnt be giving up an important job for a ceremonial one.

              My point is I don't agree that him losing the TX Senate race is disqualifying for him to be the nominee or even a point against him. What we need is someone who can handle attacks from the right, not just from the left. Harris, Sanders, Booker, etc are representing heavily Dem states and their campaigns biggest concerns were probably getting outflanked on the left. For the general election for Prez, Beto (ala Sherrod Brown if he had run) has more relevant experience.

                    I didn't say it wasn't. But that doesn't prove anything other than he can make it close. That is great...but plenty of teams think they are good cause they do better than expected against better teams but they don't win so it doesn't matter anyways.

                    This isn't a controversial opinion...it isn't like he is some lock to win or something. He is a good candidate who hasn't proved he is a great one yet.

                    And again...I like him and defend him when the Bernie ROs attack him for not be Left enough.

                      Not even sure he did better than expected, Trump beat clinton by 9 points in Texas, Cruz beat Beto by about 2. Dems got an 8 point swing in the midterms on average. Basically he performed about as well as an average generic Dem against Ted Cruz.
