Related: About this forumLiterally *ALL BUT ONE* of our candidates will eventually drop out
There's no need to be sad about any one candidate dropping out at this point. We need to whittle the field down to a handful, so the debates can be focused, so donations can start going to potential winners, and so voters can focus.
Good luck to Beto in whatever he does next (hope he reconsiders TX Senate), but the weeding out process is a GOOD thing for our party, not a bad thing.
Eventually every candidate but the winner will reach this moment. Buck up, kids.

(156,968 posts)Isn't it funny then, for me to feel sad about Beto? Because I am.
There was something very attractive about him, his intelligence, his attitude towards gun control, to say the least.
I always feel sad when people's dreams die.

I'm not about to make any guesses as to which two or three, but I do feel confident in saying there will not be a brokered convention.
I sincerely hope that at this point he does not endorse any candidate, but, especially if he's not running for another office, does campaign whole-heartedly for our nominee.
