      There's a certain kind of urbane, over-educated Democrat who is genuinely enthralled by the visual image of Beto going on long, earnest hikes with advisers where they ponder a presidential run https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/beto-orourke-appears-close-to-a-presidential-run/2019/02/28/c8f48c78-3b67-11e9-a06c-3ec8ed509d15_story.html …pic.twitter.com/d7XpHSMAjw

      I don't particularly dislike Beto himself; I do particularly dislike this bizarre, media-confected aura that has been built up around Beto, and which has now put him on the precipice of launching a presidential campaign based on nothing but the force of his personality

          Correction: the force of his image-makers. I don’t think we have any idea who the hell Beto is.

          Look no further than Trudeau. Same lanky frame, good hair, and periwinkle dress shirts with sleeves rolled up. It all just works. That is until his eyebrows fall off or he gets busted obstructing justice. #TrudeauResign

          Same! I'd told somebody I have nothing visceral against him, but that the political schemes that surround him are the things I hate most about politics.

          The great problem for them is that he has no personality.

          I’ve seen him speak. He comes across very sincere... if he tells you the grass is blue, you’re just like, ‘I believe you Beto”. Very special quality I’m thinking we need more in a president. Lots more #Bernie2020

          Really, other than @SenSanders and @TulsiGabbard, who, for better or worse, actually stand for something, is there a Democrat running that isn't just a hollow, pander - machine that's just trying to buy votes with promises of taxpayer $$$?

          I absolutely cannot stand him, precisely because of the demographics you describe. That same demo happens to be over-represented in print media, which is how they keep shoving this guy down our throats.

          I've never seen a person- politician or otherwise- wave their arms around so much. He's in constant motion. It's weird. He'd make Trump look stable on a debate stage.

          Obama served in the Senate before becoming President. Because Trump was able to jump into the position, Dems think they can run Beto on having been a Representative. That's not a strong enough position.
