It's also odd that Senator Sanders and Senator Cruz tout their anti-establishment/outsider bona fides.  This entirely new phenomenon will probably not happen in future elections.

Wait just a minute!  I thought only Republicans engaged in dirty tricks.  Who does Hillary think she is?  LBJ?

(Of course, it could be simple incompetence, in which case it would be all better.)

You have to be impressed that someone with a bachelor's from Princeton and a Harvard law degree, who clerked for Rehnquist, then spent his entire career working for major law firms, the Bush administration, and the Texas government before becoming a U.S. Senator, and whose campaign is funded by at least three $10M+ donors, can convince anyone that he is an "outsider."

Sometimes I forget to look at things from the perspective of a Republican.

albright satanic... flabbergasted!!


Did anyone hear that the robot playing Rubio malfunctioned at the debate when Christie attacked him? Rubio became a classic broken record repeating the same programming over and over.

"Obama knows exactly what he's doing"

???

Saw Trump call out the audience of Jebby's donors, which then booed him... thaaat was actually kinda tasty... Trump knows how to relish disdain... I mean, you have to admit...

Jebby: "Please clap"




i HAPPENED ON THE cHOMSKY "talking aboiut "anarchy" for 5 mins. OK, now I now how the "elite" do it. They get you to a point where you're talking about something like anarchy----on a comy couch----with him drawling on like the Bueller guy----- oh, and he just bla blas on and on about -talking about a topic' where I wonder is he's ever seen anything resembling an atrocity, I mean, Chomsky sounds just like the lecturer-in-chief the way they just go on and on about their learning.

Sure, Chomsky uncovers just as much truth as Limbaugh does,LOL, wow, I just figured it out, didn't I???? LOL!! Left = Right....right???   SAME FLIPPIN BIRD!!!!!

It's called staying on message.  Most professional politicians learn how to say the same thing over and over.  Better politicians have a quiver full of rhetorical arrows to shoot.  Rubio just needs to memorize a few more lines.

Not me, hate 'em. Of course, I know that's what you meant. Sarcasm is wonderful :)

Speaking of which, the high point for me, several times over is when my guy, Chris Christie (I keep telling y'all) spanked Marco (Short Pants) Rubio like the naughty little bitch he is.   about time, too. :)

Nope. That argument doesn't work with me: I have Ted Cruz. You can't scare me with how bad someone else has it.   :D

Actually, I live so far out in the country that I don't have any local TV, and all my satellite networks since 1995 have come out of NYC, so I see him a lot, since they treat Jersey (and Conn.) like part of their metroplex. So I see him regularly.

You have to remember what a weapons grade shitstorm the Republican field is: Christie looks brilliant in company like that.
