After Spending $79 Million on Senate Run, Beto Says Senate Seat Not ‘Good Enough’

WFB:

Less than a year after he spent $79 million in his attempt to get elected to the U.S. Senate, former Democratic congressman Robert “Beto” O’Rourke now says a Senate seat isn’t “good enough.”

O’Rourke, who came out on the losing side of the most expensive Senate election in U.S. history last cycle, is being urged by many on his side of the aisle to abandon his presidential bid in favor of another shot at a Senate seat, this time against incumbent Republican senator John Cornyn. He told supporters in his hometown of El Paso on Thursday he wasn’t interested.

“There have even been some who suggested that I stay in Texas and run for Senate,” O’Rourke said. “But that would not be good enough for this community, that would not be good enough for El Paso, that would not be good enough for this country.”

  1. “…he spent $79 million in his attempt to get elected to the U.S. Senate…”

    Probably $20 million of that for yard signs. Too bad yard signs can’t vote.

  2. Should have given the niggrahs and the spics “walkin roun money.”

    $79 Million go a long way in Muscatel.

    Oh, yeah, West Virginia, too – remember Jay Rockefeller?

  3. He also didn’t get bloodied in a primary to run against Cruz and Cruz’s campaign did not do much to take Beto out, they were down ticket with a popular Gov sure to win on top and did the standard I’m start my campaign after Labor Day. He has exposed who he is and probably would have a much rougher time running against Cornyn with Trump on top of the ticket.

  4. He indeed amassed a sizeable warchest in his bid for the Senate seat and in typical Democrat fashion refused any request by other Dems to share in it to help their campaigns. I don’t think Beat-Off cares if he wins, he loves the spotlight and spending OPM.

  5. May I suggest running for a seat in Mexico’s corrupt govt? He’d better get elected to something, the Cartel didn’t dole out all that cash for nothing.

  6. The Asshole from El Paso feels the need to save the whole World, not just the United States. He needs a bigger counter to stand on. He really belongs in a secure, safe mental adjustment institution.

  7. Jerry Manderin – Seriously though. What is the deal with all the arm movements???
    Gotta be a tweaker. And remember when Liz Warren tried to copy him on one of her townhalls? It was right after she copied Cortez’s wine video. And notice how she latched on really hard to Bernie’s ideas?
    Good gravy, there isn’t a real bone in her stupid ass body.

  8. BetaMale ORourke is a low-rent version of John Kerry-Heinz. He married into money and hasn’t accomplished anything in his miserable life.

    Who is ORourke’s in-laws so I’ll know to revile them when I’m visiting San Antone in two weeks?

  9. I’m back. ORourkes FIL is real-estate slumlord Bill Sanders. Other than Trump’s former press secretary, why is it that it seems everyone named Sanders is EVIL?
