Who hasn’t gotten a DUI? 

Most people have not been busted for a DUI. Maybe you meant who hasn't driven drunk?

Seriously, my first response to the DUI news was, "I've done worse" but I haven't and I've done some fucked up shit.

The DUI incident shouldn't be down played by supporters, it's a bad look. The fact that it happened 20 years ago and he has owned up to it without repeating the same mistake speaks for itself.

wtf is near intoxication manslaughter? because I pull out, is that a near abortion? wtf kind of argument is that?

I think Troph was referencing the fact that Beto crashed into another vehicle while driving drunk and put another driver's life at risk versus just getting pulled over by a patrol car.

    I do volunteer work for Beto's campaign (surprise!). I get called a "libtard" on a regular basis and get a lot of responses that are just "#MAGA!" and the like, but I also hear a lot of "who is Beto?"

I know you virtue-signaling  "Cruz is icky" Beto fanboys won't care, but this shit is eventually going to catch up with your handsome candidate once it gets statewide exposure and people start paying attention outside of Austin and Highland Park. 

Also the Chuck Schumer preferred policy positions, but the debates will eventually fix that.

Supporters should treat it as an employer would if Beto declared it under "criminal record" on his job application.   

Most employers wouldn't give a shit about a 20 year old DUI if the applicant brings more to the table than his alternative.

LOL Texas Tough Ted needing Trump to campaign for him. Sad!

Terrible comparison. Part of the job of supporting a candidate is to win over other voters.

Conservative media seem to be thinking this is the end of Beto.

I don’t think it’s that bad but it’s certainly not good, as there’s a perception now that he wasn’t completed honest and forthright about the details of the offense.

Unfortunately for Beto, in running a statewide campaign in Texas as a Democrat, he already started with almost zero margin for error...

You're underestimating how much people hate Ted Cruz.

This is a good thing. It will only highlight the contrast between Beto and Cruz for all of the people tired of existing in the darkest timeline.

I think this is actually bad for Ted.  Trump wants to be able to say that this is the biggest crowd for Ted (which will be true) and at the same time point to all the empty seats (which there will be many in the "biggest stadium we can find") to humiliate Ted.

If Ted loses, it completes the revenge for Ted's failure to quickly submit.

If Ted wins, Trump will take all the credit and claim he "saved" him from an otherwise imminent loss.

 

I'm surprised that an outside, Beto-supporting group isn't creating billboards of Trump's tweets with Cruz insults.     The billboard wouldn't convince a Trump-loving voter to vote for Beto but it may convince some to not vote Cruz.  

Spoiler

I think maybe that would be a good thing to do outside whatever rally trump shows up to in texas.  I have a feeling the beto crowd would easily outnumber the cruz/trumpkins.    Like 5 times as many silently standing outside the building as what are inside.  I could join a siege like that.

Yes this is why it may be a bigger deal. I’d hammer on this distinction if I were a surrogate for Cruz.

It's not really much of a distinction, because it should be built into the concept of a DUI.   If you're over the limit and driving poorly enough to get pulled over, it's mostly just luck as to whether or not you hit something or hurt someone.  A drunk driver who nearly misses a bunch of people is no better than a drunk driver who taps another car (no injuries suffered) on the way to spinning off the road.   W was weaving on and off the road when he was pulled over; it's just luck that nobody was near him.   It's an extremely serious offense because of the potential for harm.   But I don't see how the happenstance of making contact with the car next to you or not makes it any better or worse.   You put that other driver's life at risk either way.

I hesitate to even report this on a message board, but some conservative poster in my circle of FB friends has been very insistent with claims that Beto has taken PAC mone in this cycle. If proven true that could be much more harmful to his campaign than the details of his DWI. 

There's a whisper campaign saying that based on the fact that O'Rourke has taken bundled personal donations. 

Now personally, I don't like bundlers and they often perform the function of a quasi PAC , but the fact is they aren't a PAC. 

Also - it's likely that PACs and other outside groups that will likely do some independent work in support of Beto, but again, that's not the same thing as taking PAC money because they aren't the Campaign.

They can’t.  These are the same people who bought into Rove’s campaign tactics that had McCain having fathered a black kid when he and Cindy adopted a kid.

When it was really one of the Koreans instead of the negro (with his heart on the outside)?

Beto partying along the border makes me think he should do a quick ad charting his visits to all the Texas counties with a Repo Man style music/vibe showing the map to all the random places he's been.

What's more Texan? A DWI or letting some Yankee shit all over your wife and dad? Cruz would let Trump kick his dog on national TV now for his endorsement. If a dog would even live with Cruz....
