Beto O'Rourke, the new wunderkind of the left, has burned through nearly all the money his breathless supporters sent him in his Quixotic attempt to unseat Ted Cruz in Texas

He got 80 million.

He only has 475,000 left.

Insert sad face here.

Actually, this whole silly story is an example of what would happen if the voters picked him.  He'd spend every single cent that the government could tax out of the pockets of the actual generators of wealth, plus every single cent he could borrow on the backs of the workers, and then there'd be nothing to show for it.

Why would anyone vote for him or his kind?

    1. The real question is how long it would take him to impoverish us, the citizens, and enrich himself and his family, if he were elected to power. He clearly can't manage his own money, but would dearly love to waste ours.

  2. any question of what beto would do if elected is answered by just looking at CA.

  3. How in blazes did he manage to do that? He didn't even give any other Dem any money, so I thought he was keeping it for his ambitions later on.

    It's inconceivable! (Yes, that word means what I think it does.)

    1. Probably funneled most of it to his buddy "campaign workers". You know $500K for three weeks work stuffing envelopes, etc. Much like Maxine The Mouth "employs" her daughter during campaigns.

  4. Must be that economic principle about the "velocity of money"
