        First off, Beto has zero ability to pass any STATE laws in Texas if he is in the US Senate. If Cruz doesn't understand that he should not be a Senator. Secondly, Beto and his supporters should throw a bunch of barbecue themed fundraisers to show everyone how full of shit Cruz is.

        I think Cruz is counting on his Republican constituents not understanding the difference.

        This election has revealed that Cruz is simply horrible at campaigning. No feel for it at all.

        This campaign confirms, yet again, that Cruz is simply horrible.

        Beto literally had an event in San Antonio called "Barbque with Beto."

        Was it a ‘real’ BBQ or just grilling? Maybe that’s what Ted is all up in arms about. Some people get crazy about whether it’s grilling or a barbeque! It’s all Ted’s got now.
