That's okay. We re-elected a literal idiot 12 years ago. As my buddy Rob might say, "The times, they are a-changin'."

Even if Biden could magically enter the race, wouldn't he and Hillary just split a bunch of votes leaving even more third degree berns felt nationwide?

I need a candidate who will make bots a protected class. Is there anyone running on that platform? The treatment of rubiOS these past few days has really opened my eyes to the horrors that lie in my future.

Biden + Hillary never happens.

She takes one for the party and collects her reward.

I thought these challengers the party threw at/under her was her reward. Like seriously, how could anyone have ****ed this up so bad?

Hillary might just be a WOAT politician. Should have had sex with Bill more often in the hopes that some of it rubbed off

Well I figure her next reward will be far less substantial.

Something small - like no prison time.

Looks like Trump had a 38% chance of losing NH according to one noteworthy political prediction outfit

Variance, runbad, etc.

It would seem that Bernie is about to handily lose Nevada and South Carolina. Then I guess we're supposed to think he has a shot at Michigan?

Meanwhile Hilldawg's superdelegate advantage is like 370 to 2 or something like that. I don't think there's enough FEELING of the BERN to overcome what's about to be a brutal month for Bernie.

lol @ the Republican party btw, just lol, your frontrunner isn't a Republican or a conservative, he's just a pro-business bigot with no policy proposals to speak of, and your other option is a hated imbecile wanter, gj

ljl at thinking anyone cares about "conservative" positions anymore. You can prattle all you want about the finer points of capital gains tax rates or which Middle Eastern country to invade next, but that's gonna fall flat compared to an ultra-charismatic figure saying "build wall, remove kebab"

I'm not even sure that TRUMP is actually racist. Like, I know that he is saying some of the most racist things I've ever heard a politician say, but I don't really think they reflect his true feelings or beliefs. I certainly agree that he isn't an actual Republican as the party would define it and don't even think he's conservative except perhaps financially either.

how do you know this? I know he has been acting extremely racist since announcing his campaign, but I tend to believe it is all political.

Trump tho

Quote:
"We're not allowed to negotiate drug prices, can you believe it?" Trump said. Noting that Woody Johnson, of the Johnson & Johnson family, is a big Jeb Bush fundraiser, Trump asked, "Do you think Jeb Bush is going to make drug prices competitive?" Everyone knew the answer. Trump went on to accuse the insurance industry of buying laws that suppress competition and keep prices high, and the oil companies of doing something similar.

On defense, in a race in which all of his Republican rivals favor increasing military spending, Trump promised instead to go after waste and profiteering in the defense industry. "I hear stories, like they're ordering missiles they don't want because of politics, because of special interests," Trump said. "Because the company that makes the missiles is a contributor." There is so much of that kind of corruption in the Pentagon, Trump said, that he will be able to build up the military without actually spending more, just by putting an end to wasteful and corrupt practices.
