Congratulations to our presumptive Democratic nominee, Joe Biden!
I have been a solid Beto fan but -
damn that Mayor Pete really is getting to me. He seems to have it all. I just finished his book and am so very impressed.

to stay pertinent in Texas. But pro death penalty doesn't fly here in Illinois. I heard he was pro capital punishment two years ago.

He would not state emphatically his feeling about abortion either. That disturbs me.

I assume the decision would be made by the woman involved.

(6,930 posts)4. I was not a Beto fan, but when I read that he wanted to demolish a poor neighborhood to build
a Walmart - that sealed it even more for me. I learned that in the Vanity Fair cover story about him. The only reason the deal did not go through was because the recession hit that year. Very interesting reading.

I haven't seen or heard anything yet that has made me change my mind.
