Beto did one thing... he got around Texas. I think that made a huge impact. Talking everywhere, red counties and blue. He actually listened and talked to them. I think it could work for Allred too. His football background will open a lot of doors easier than they opened for Beto. Now, getting his message across, I don't know about that. I think taking some suggestions from Beto might be a good idea. I'm sure suggestion one is to actually have a message.
It could work for him. The problem is that he’s not doing it. At all. He has no message. He’s not visible. He’s not kissing hands and shaking babies. The dude is invisible. At this point in the campaign, Beto was everywhere. He was generating energy, he was meeting voters, he was holding town halls, etc. It was all getting tons of free media attention, both local and national. I follow politics more than the average bear and I’ve seen nor heard nothing from the Allred campaign since the primary and even then it was just annoying daily texts hitting me up for money. He’s been a totally disappointing candidate so far, IMO. I hope he can pull something together and make it competitive.
