Former Texas congressman Beto O'Rourke drops out of 2020 presidential race

Former Texas Democrat congressman Beto O'Rourke announced Friday he is withdrawing from the 2020 presidential race, telling supporters “it is clear to me now that this campaign does not have the means to move forward successfully.”

O'Rourke entered the race in March to great fanfare after nearly defeating Texas incumbent Sen. Ted Cruz in the 2018 midterms but struggled to gain traction in the massive Democratic primary field.

“My service to the country will not be as a candidate or as the nominee,” O’Rourke wrote in a post on Medium. “Acknowledging this now is in the best interests of those in the campaign; it is in the best interests of this party as we seek to unify around a nominee; and it is in the best interests of the country.”

Never had a chance.  And hopefully more of his true colors came out.  I wonder how Texas is liking him now. . .

The messed up part is he was having a rally somewhere and didn't let his staff over there know.

FIFY

Saying I am coming after your guns killed him.  At that point I knew he had no chance of being the nominee.

At least there wasn't that many people there.

Could be worst, like losing an election and not even coming out of your room to talk to all your supporters...Wish there was a video of her going ape shit and throwing shit at Bill.

I've seen worse, or what I assume is worse.  I remember back when I was in HS, there were poll results where candidates had 0 votes.  ZERO!!!  Like the guy didn't even vote for himself.  Not one family member, friend, etc.   

He knew he was in trouble and proposed the mandatory gun buy back proposal to try and out distance himself from the pack. Doesn't matter. My Vegas bet is on Schiff getting the nomination.

Funny thing. If one of these sheets was found at a Trump rally I would bet it would be the top news story every night. 

The other runners are happy, he spilled the beans on the end game on democrat gun control.   Keep in mind, he said, out loud, what they all want with gun control, they just keep it under wraps.
