Accouncement tomorrow 

What question is he running from? Oops, I'm still stuck in the recent past.

I guess a pertinent question would be: does he stand a chance? I've had the unfortune of hearing some of his platform, which should scare the heck out of any sane American. But then again, most (if not all) of the ones that are already in the race propose the same things. So, in comparison to the other Socialists (formerly Democrat party) running, how does he differentiate himself?

He has no chance of winning. 

I sure hope you are right.

One thing that scares me is that the Dems seem to be looking for someone out of the old mainstream ideology, meaning the old guard like Hillary and Biden (just like Trump winning the nomination by basically bucking the old guard). The more Liberal, the better. I could be wrong, but I think one of these far, far Left candidates will catch fire and win the nomination. I have no idea who, but I doubt Biden or even Bernie will be the one. Whoever does win the nomination, I'm not sure if the whole party will rally around a uber Left candidate...but that might just be wishful thinking on my part. I don't see a semi-moderate pulling out the nomination. Beto fits the bill of bucking the established ideology, so I'm not so sure he should be written off just yet. But again, I sure hope you are right. Although he scares me, I don't see a Dem candidate that scares me less.

LRF, try to imagine the outcry from the Left if this story came out on a Republican.  Good gosh gerdy, it’d be headline news.

Btw, by definition, doesn’t this make Beto a psychopath?

I’m sure he’ll get a pass on this...now if he had driven with a dog on his roof or as stevenash pointed out, threw beer on someone, that would have the media all over him, I’m sure.
