The 2016 primary fight is about to be rehashed in the DNC chair fight.

Certain individuals couldn't help but take jabs at a man with executive experience, a former civil rights attorney for the justice department, a cabinet secretary who has fought to make workers lives better during his tenure, and a man who was in the running to be HRC's VP because he doesn't run for election/reelection in a solid blue district. I'm solidly Team Perez.

DU Definition of a Humiliating loss: Winning by more than 2 million votes and gracefully conceding.

I guess next time she needs to write some harmful op.eds and never concede.

CNN: In private, Burr quips about gun owners shooting Clinton

http://www.cnn.com/2016/10/31/politics/richard-burr-hillary-clinton-gun-owners/index.html

The North Carolina Republican, locked in a tight race for reelection, quipped that as he walked into a gun shop "nothing made me feel better" than seeing a magazine about rifles "with a picture of Hillary Clinton on the front of it."

"I was a little bit shocked at that -- it didn't have a bullseye on it," he said Saturday to GOP volunteers, prompting laughter from the crowd in Mooresville, North Carolina. "But on the bottom right (of the magazine), it had everybody for federal office in this particular state that they should vote for. So let me assure you, there's an army of support out there right now for our candidates."


My deplorable senator being deplorable. I really hope this puts Ross over the top.

Per WP: Trump pushing into WI, MI, and NM in a desperate gambit to turn them red.


This is how he's spending his last week of campaigning.

In final sprint, Trump targets Democratic states while Clinton tries to gin up enthusiasm among minorities

Trump campaign chief executive Stephen K. Bannon has settled on three states in particular — Michigan, Wisconsin and New Mexico — where the candidate and campaign will devote more time and money, according to four people familiar with the discussions who requested anonymity to discuss internal campaign talks. All three states were won by Obama in 2008 and 2012.

Bannon believes that if GOP voters rapidly “come home” nationally in light of recent events, that turnout plus late-breaking support among independents and blue-collar workers could bring new states into play beyond Pennsylvania, Nevada and Colorado — Democratic strongholds where Trump has been campaigning for months and remains behind, the people said.

Huge Uptick in Negative Trump ads in NC.

Any other swing state voters notice it in their state? I've seen misleading ads on "superpredator", basement dwellers, deplorables, hits on emails, foundation donors and women, and clinton scandals.

They are going into the gutter for these last few weeks.

'Apprentice' star: Trump kissed me, I wasn't offended (Jennifer Murphy, Trump supporter)

www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2016/10/15/jennifer-murphy-former-apprentice-contestant-comments-erin-intv.cnn

Watch the vid. A Trump supporter and former apprentice star just confirmed Trump's predatory behavior toward women on CNN's Outfront. I wonder if Trump is going to mock her.

The Townhall needs to address Trump's continued insistence that the Central Park 5 are guilty.

This is big. It makes me sick to my stomach and it ranks among the top 10 things that disqualifies him from the presidency.

This has to be brought up during the debate.
