Scared? Or does he think he's got it in the bag he's tired of answering all of those stupid questions?

The town hall made Beto look epic. The crowd was clapping and screaming for him. Because Cruz turned it down, Beto got a free one-hour nationwide infomercial and it went great.

Will this make any difference in the polls?
