Beto O'Rourke 2.0 looks a lot like Beto O'Rourke 1.0 | Analysis by niaCNN
Remember Beto O'Rourke? The Democratic presidential candidate who launched his run for the White House with a glossy Vanity Fair cover announcing that he was"born to be in it"?
Well, O'Rourke is actually hoping to put some distance between that old O'Rourke and all that baggage of white male privilege that came along with it. And the new O'Rourke is ... well, that part is still being figured out. .duval-3{width:100%;position: relative; border: 1px solid #979797; border-left: none; border-right: none;padding: 20px 0; box-sizing: border-box; -webkit-box-sizing: border-box; -moz-box-sizing: border-box; margin: auto; max-width: 660px;} .
On ABC's"The View," O'Rourke said that he was more aware of some of the missteps he made, including the Vanity Fair comments, his road trip and flippant comments about his wife shouldering much of the parenting burden. "There are things that I have been privileged to do in my life that others cannot," he said."And I think the more that, I travel and listen to people and learn from them, the clearer that becomes to me.
Recounting his Senate race, and how he lost by 2.6%, and how he talked to voters, no matter their party, has been central to his stump speech for weeks. With arms flailing, O'Rourke would tick through a wish list of Democratic priorities on health care, immigration, education and the economy. As he showed on The View, he can be an articulate hype man for Democratic Party values.
