    Although, to be honest, the joke is on the Democrats and progressives showing a video of the dude air drumming,loke that proved he was cool or something. That dumb shit went viral 

    It's not my fault he is most famous for air drumming to The Who.

    that happens no matter what, when you see a politician who seems relatable to youth. not just some stuffy old rich guy who looks like a turtle. he is not most famous for that, btw. I didn't even remember that until you brought it up. 
    Your boos mean nothing to me, for I have seen what makes you cheer

    People thought air drumming was going to win a senate seat in Texas? Lol
    No, they didn't think that. Oh boy, this air drum red herring works on a surprising number of people. No wonder America is beginning its fall.
    THE WORLD IS ENDING!!!!

    lighten up, it was a joke
    Not funny. I am completely sick of these stupid red herrings about air drumming and socks and shit, because, what you don't seem to realize, it is actually working seriously on people, and really are being used as a kind of "weapon" by the far right. Little "jokes" like yours only perpetuate it.

    I'd be curious to hear about a candidate you like.  One that you'd vote for in 2020, maybe.  And, if the Dems nominate an air-drumming boob like Beto, will you vote third or for Trump?

    What do you mean joke? Wasn't he closer to winning than a democratic candidate in Texas in forever?

    So...?

    The results of this election said more about who Florida and Texas were as a people, than it did about Beto or Gillum as candidates.
    These generalizations aren’t beneficial

    You think Beto lost because people are fooled by red herrings about air drumming and socks? Umm, ok

    The whole thing is a joke of a team sport, excuse me for laughing. I don't plan on stopping any time soon. Dont give AF who is offended by it either, sorry

    I care more about this country than any Canadian, that much i can tell you 

    I've forgotten more about America and American politics than any Canadian up in here will ever know, so save the lectures my friends

    Beto lost, move on to the next darling candidate. Avenatti 2020! Lol

    You are going full BernieBro, don't you know you never go full BernieBro??

    Seriously though, you are coming off more like a BernieBro or a conservative troll than I think you intend or realize.  Don't let your frustration work to widen the divide inside progressivism, that's just what the regressives want!

    American political truth:

    Both sides, the red team and the blue team, are both bought and sold by the same exact lobbyists. This isnt a democracy, this is an auction. Any wall street crooks get charged when Obama came in? Any war crimes pursued? Why would anyone want to raise $75 million to be a Senator? You need to raise $1 billion to become POTUS, and you arent bought and paid for? Bought & sold, all of them. This is why I'm focused on electing women, minorities, non-hetero, non-christian candidates regardless of party... and of course, that strategy means i will mostly vote dem since those type of candidates wont usually be on the GOP ticket

    RIP Keith Moon

    He ran a fantastic campaign and came up just a little short.

    Who here thought he stood a chance when he threw his hat in the ring. The man has a bright future in politics.
