I wish they would go ahead and put Beto O'Rourke's name at the end of their ads.

This year I'm hopeful for Texas. I just am. They need another Richardson. They DESERVE someone of her caliber and commitment. I think Beto can pull it off this year. I truly do.

We don't fall on the same spectrum of key issues as Democratic Party Members - but his issues align with Texans.
