US Presidential Contenders

[Unorthodox]

But the ugliness of his candidacy is one of the few things to look forward to...

I suffer Kardasians in my universe w/o a problem, but I concluded that that guy was a douchbag a very long time ago; he's drag on the rotation of the planet, and the joke's not funny.  He's got to go.

[Rusty Edge]

[Sleezebag] is the kind of guy who makes me look forward to seeing Saturday Night Live, Colbert, etc., but makes me cringe whenever I hear him speak, because I know he's serious.

[Buster's Uncle]

So much love for something so unlovable coming out of his mouth...

[Buster's Uncle]

Hey - A thing I've been remiss in mentioning w/ regard to steeling ourselves for a Hilary win?

Mr. Clinton will. make. the. best. First. Lady. EVAH.  -Suddenly sending the First Lady to anything, say, a foreign head of state's funeral, will be better than the Vice President sticking his head in.  He'll even do a good job of the traditional throwing parties and dressing up pretty stuff...

[Rusty Edge]

If and when, he should be known as "The First Dude".

[Buster's Uncle]

First Lady is an important role, given the right wife doing it.  Michelle Obama is pretty much perfect, BTW.

Shamelessly ripped off from a JRabbit post at 'poly...

Donald [Sleezebag] gestures while speaking surrounded by people whose families were victims of illegal immigrants on July 10, 2015 while meeting with the press at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel in Beverly Hills, California, where some shared their stories of the loss of a loved one. The US business magnate [Sleezebag], who is running for President in the 2016 presidential elections, angered members of the Latino community with recent comments but says he will win the Latino vote.

After watching and listening to Donald [Sleezebag] since he announced his candidacy for president, we have decided we won't report on [Sleezebag]'s campaign as part of The Huffington Post's political coverage. Instead, we will cover his campaign as part of our Entertainment section. Our reason is simple: [Sleezebag]'s campaign is a sideshow. We won't take the bait. If you are interested in what The Donald has to say, you'll find it next to our stories on the Kardashians and The Bachelorette.

This is something more than my personal distaste for the man; he's a joke and this is yet another of his zero-class publicity stunts.  Good call.

Thanks for sharing this-

My wife's reaction- "You gotta love it!"

[Buster's Uncle]

There are things in the world no decent person should continence or even dignify with acknowledgement of its existence.

The news media Group Mind does not do this nearly often enough.

[Rusty Edge]

I wonder if The Donald is the Pat Paulson of the new millennia - the campaign that never goes away, but never gets anywhere, either.

[Buster's Uncle]

It's not a joke on purpose, I don't think, no.



Mylochka said at lunch that she was (glad but) surprised that Sanders is doing so well.  She figures that he only announced for President hoping for a Perot Effect, influence on pet issues - I think instead he's experiencing the Romney Effect, where the party desperately doesn't want the one whose race it is to lose, something clowns like Santorum and the Grinch benefitted from enormously last cycle.

Mrs. Clinton is supposed to have a losing hand in your part of the woods?

[Buster's Uncle]

I have no idea.  This is a red state, but swingy.

[Rusty Edge]

[Sleezebag] opened his mouth again. I tried to post yesterday, but I was having computer/connectivity issues.

Basically [Sleezebag] said something like this about John McCain-

He's no war hero. What did he do? Get captured?



Well,  for starters, Donald, quite unlike you, he volunteered!
