Longtime Democratic political strategist, pundit, and political analyst Bob Beckel has died. He died on Monday, February 21, 2022, at the age of 73.
Beckel’s fellow political pundit Cal Thomas announced Beckel’s passing in a Facebook post on Monday evening.
“My friend and spiritual brother, Bob Beckel, has passed into the presence of the Lord he loved,” Thomas wrote in his Facebook post.
“We did so many things together and I hope we modeled what two people of different political persuasions can be like when they love one another. For ten years we wrote the ‘Common Ground’ column for USA Today and a book by that title.
“The name of his ironically titled autobiography is ‘I Should Be Dead.’ It is a highly readable book about a difficult life that was dramatically changed in the last 15 years. I will see you soon Bob. You are loved,” the post added.
