We are not yet two full days into 2018. That said, I cannot believe that baby Jesus is enough of my amigo as to begin the year in such a wonderful way. From CNN:
American politics has been a poorer place since the last winner of the Iowa Straw Poll took her participation ribbon and went home. And its good to see that her unique gift for political analysis remains as sharp as ever.
The question is, Am I being called to do this now? I dont know.
I talked to my amigo, baby Jesus. He subcontracted the job to me.
Run, Michele, run.

He is the epitome of the ugly American.

I dont put anything past voters anymore though.

(31,150 posts)But I dont blame deplorables, they cant do better, it is not in their DNA, I blame the nose holding whiners who said the democratic candidate and the republican candidate were basically the same.
As I understand it the thing we CANT do here is discuss the PRIMARY but I am discussing the ELECTION and what I saw and heard as to these type of comments.
This was all entirely avoidable.

Run, Trump, Run.
And we all know how that turned out.
If Bachmann does run, she needs to be taken seriously, and then crushed (politically speaking) like a Roy Moore cockroach.
But no laughing allowed until we have Franken's former seat safe and sound, tied with a big red bow following the 2018 mid-terms.

(34,129 posts)That is the same thing far too many Democrats (including my spouse) said about Trump: I hope he wins the Republican nomination - no way he'll win the White House!
Please learn from the recent past.
