1. It's great to see Beto out this week on the talk show circuit. The timing before the debates next

week are excellent, just as the release of his education plan emphasizing equality was prior to the debates next week.

I'm also glad that in the second video, Beto addressed the concerns that some have indicated as to whether he had any regrets about not running for Senate seat held by Cornyn. He also realizes that he will need to be more aggressive in the next debate to get his points made.

Thanks for posting.

2. I agree that this was a stellar interview

Seth has been great at interviewing candidates, asks all the right questions so they can get their points across, but Beto more than held his own dealing with every issue on the table - as you said. And I was pleased that he was given the time, they haven't done that with everyone, which indicates he's regarded as a serious/top candidate.
