Not the TIME for Beto ? - 2020 Democratic Race

Fox News: Reports on the faults in the Beto campaign, " O’Rourke’s liabilities began showing soon after he arrived in Iowa, the first-in-the-nation caucus state. On Friday, the second day of his campaign, the former Texas congressman was forced to apologize for what he called ‘really hateful’ writings from his youth… Hours later, O’Rourke was apologizing for ham-handedly joking about his wife, Amy, raising their children ‘sometimes with my help.’ … "

Lets Get Real:

As stated on Meet the Press, the reason that Beto is getting press and air time it down to the fact that he is good looking and young.  The Democrats want another Bill Clinton ( without the scandal ) or Barack Obama.  The problem is that Beto has never really been tested, yes he was in the House for three terms, and ran for Senator in Texas, a Texas Democrat might not be a normal Democrat, Beto said he was a capitalist when asked about his economic view, the Democrats have gone LEFT, very LEFT, they might not elect a young white guy with odd teeth, however earnest and good looking he might be.   He is no JFK or RFK, there is no record to Beto, he streams he his thoughts on social media, very much like Donald Trump.  One can postulate that he is looking to be the VP nominee to Joe Biden should he win the nomination.  This is not 1992, when the Democrats nominated Bill Clinton and Al Gore,  the Democrats will want a female, ethnic candidate to be the VP, sorry that does not mean Senator Warren ( let's not discuss her claim to be from Native - American decent ).   Let's see how Beto does in the debates, there will be a lot of candidates, let's see who shines. 

Could a Democrat be a caught up in the Mueller Investigation ? - Trump Era

Guardian - Live Blog: Reports in its 7.45pm post the following, " Gregory Craig, the former White House counsel for Barack Obama, may be indicted for failing to register as a foreign agent for work he did on behalf of Viktor Yanukovych, the former president of Ukraine.  "

Lets Get Real:

I wonder if this story has LEGS, will CNN cover it for hours on end, will the question the role of Mr Craig in the Obama White House.  OF COURSE NOT, this blog is rather surprised that it's in the Guardian.  It should be noted that it is running in the New York Times, guess the uber left wing Guardian tries to be seen to be fair.   One does wonder if the Justice Department will really go after Mr Craig, it seems more interested in nailing POTUS for anything.  Do not hold your breath for this story to be carried by other uber liberal news networks.   There only story is TRUMP. 

Is BETO the man to BEAT ? - Trump Era

Daily Mail: Reports " Beto beats Bernie: O'Rourke raises $6.1 MILLION in first day of his campaign  "

Lets Get Real:

In 1984 Walter Mondale's campaign manager asked WHERE IS THE BEEF when it came to Senator Gary Hart, the same question could be asked for Beto O' Rourke, ( Just Beto henceforth ) he has only served three terms in the US House of Representatives and has a failed Senate run Texas, his home State.  In other words he is a LOSER, but because of his goods looks and running a good campaign in Texas he is seen as another Bill Clinton or Barack Obama, winners for the record.   Beto was interviewed on Meet the Press on Sunday, he struggled on the record of the Obama Administration, he noted ObamaCare, but when it came to Foreign he was lost for words nearly, he mentioned IRAN but did not mention that President Obama gave the okay to take out OBL in his Pakistan House.  This move was supported by HRC but not VP Biden, he was worried about the political ramifications.  President Obama might feel miffed to say the least, Beto stated that Obama had small victories on foreign policy, hardly a ringing endorsement!!  Thus expect Obama to support Biden, if not a full endorsement then stating what the Obama Administration achieved when it it was in power.  Beto is seen as the NEW REAGAN, he is NOT, the Gipper was President of the Screen Actors Guild, hardly a non pressure job, he was also Governor of California for 8 years, ran against President Ford in 1976, and came with a hundred votes of being the nominee and won in 1980.  Beto does not have that kind of record, he has moved to the middle, he knows that a left wing firebrand will not win the fly over States, thus he is thinking LONG TERM and the general election. There are 18 months to go folks, it's going to be a LONG ROAD, as the poet Robert Frost stated in his poem, and this blog is miss quoting badly,  the candidates have miles to go before they have a good night sleep, the cold of Iowa and NH, always travelling, the polls, the polls, the debates, YES folks 2020 has STARTED FOR REAL. 

Has the Speaker HELPED the PM ? - Brexit Update 2 - NO BREXIT

Sky News: Reports " Speaker's unchanged Brexit deal vote ban is good news for Theresa May..Sky News' senior political correspondent Jon Craig says the PM has more time to win over enough waverers and serial malcontents.  "

Lets Get Real:

The move by the Speaker was not done as favour to the PM as the article states, but it might help the PM with EU.  In the forthcoming EU Summit the PM can say that needs more from the EU or the UK will have to have elections for the European Parliament, one can guess the reaction of the UK voter to that thought, they could send a NEW BREXIT PARTY of MEPs to Europe, they could cause havoc, there is general unrest in Europe when it comes to the EU, the Establishment EU does not want that to happen.    Thus the PM has to play it TOUGH, demand more concessions or the UK is staying or leaving with NO DEAL on March the 29th.   The PM has the power through the Royal Prerogative to suspend the House of Commons, at the end of the day the Queen outranks the Speaker in so many ways. 

A Bias Speaker ? - Brexit Update 1 - NO BREXIT

As predicted a Bias Speaker is moving the UK towards staying in the EU.

BBC News: Reports " Speaker John Bercow has thrown the UK's Brexit plans into further confusion by ruling out another vote on the PM's deal unless MPs are given a new motion.  "

Lets Get Real:

The Speaker is bias, that has been known for ages, this latest ruling is moving for the UK to stay in the EU against the wishes of the UK voter.  If the PM was a strong character like Lady Thatcher the Speaker would not DARE do something like this, Lady T's reaction would not have been good.   If PM May was a strong character she would ask the Queen to prorogue Parliament in till April, thus allow the UK to leave the EU on March 29th as it is in law. Of course no wants to place the Queen in this position, on the other hand, the voters voted to leave the EU in 2016, Parliament is stuck, the Speaker is biased, and the Government is WEAK. For the health of the Democracy the Queen should take ACTION, either prorogue Parliament ( suspend ) or revoke Article 50. The Queen is Sovereign, her decision would be final, and accepted by the public. At the end of the day there is one person more important than the Speaker and that is the QUEEN.
