I would love to see Beto beat Cornyn, but it won't happen. He is not nearly as unlikable as Ted Cruz and would easily beat Beto by 8-10 points.

And last year wasn't half bad by midterm standards.

That bodes well for us in 2020. So much so that taking control of the Senate is possible, which is incredible given our deficit.

He'd probably lose by 5-8 points. I also don't think anyone would pick him as VP, especially if Biden runs and wins the nomination, they would most likely want some diversity on the ticket, not two white males.

easily. Unless Cornyn pumps his illegal donations into his campaign. But Beto had grassroots help. Go ahead Beto run.

No Democrat alive is going to beat Cornyn so that’s a non starter. His best bet might be to run for Governor in 2022. That’s probably a long shot as well. He might also find himself on the ticket as vp or possibly in the cabinet of a future Dem president. He could also run for President. He has options, the worst of which is running against Cornyn.

Uhm that isn't really a thing.

Does everyone hate Beto and want to end his career? Otherwise why would, "Run Against Cornyn" have a single vote?

It would be a flop defeat by probably double the 2018 margin. In that state he is simply remembered as someone who lost. Right now in February 2019 there will be fewer voters who admit to voting for Beto against Cruz than actually voted for him.

Cornryn would have a sizable poll lead and this time Beto would never dent it. Besides, there is no chance Beto could have the same energy as 2018 in a statewide race. He'd be going back to the same counties, and same venues, and recognizing some of the same people. They would literally be shaking his hand and reminding Beto of meeting him at some county fair, or whatever, in 2018.

Beto would be thinking...didn't I just do this?

It would be political suicide. All of his strengths would be minimized and all of his weaknesses magnified.

Beto either needs to sit out or run for the presidency. In that environment the reverse is true...fresh start, fresh challenges, fresh faces, and strengths to the forefront.

Situational influence should be required class in school.

I just don’t believe the electorate in Texas has moved enough to the left yet for him to win... and especially during a presidential election year.
