Shame.  You could do a lot with a sanders - there's certainly enough news photos of him looking ranty to work from - and Cruz has an odd face that ought to work well as a rubber mask...

A good sanders would also serve very well as a generic crazy neighbor and such should he fade into obscurity...

Thoughts on various political  articles  from the last 24 hours.

* [Sleezebag] University was a scam. They left NY when they got into trouble for illegally using the term "University".  This gives new meaning to my term CEOCon.

* Bill Weld, who was criticized for the historical inaccuracy of mentioning Warsaw with Kristallnacht, and invoking The Holocaust when comparing [Sleezebag]'s immigration policy, has changed his story to - the mass deportation of 11 million Mexicans reminds me of Anne Frank hiding in the attic.

Well, I can't argue that one. It does remind me of that now that he has been made the comparison.

* Hillary is hostile to the press, [Sleezebag] manipulates them by granting access but not answering questions, and Johnson is friendly, gives them his cell phone # , and answers texted questions bluntly within an hour.

* CA is a dead heat. Clinton is facing potential embarrassment.

* David French seems to be a fizzle. His Facebook wants Mitt to run, and French still hasn't declared.  #Never [Sleezebag] desperately needs somebody, and they are praising his character. Salon is criticizing him as anti-gay. But it's looking like too little, too late.

* French on Johnson- "In considering Libertarian candidate Gary Johnson as a viable candidate, French said Johnson has “serious credentials” and “more executive experience than either Clinton or [Sleezebag].”

However, French wrote of Johnson’s candidacy: “You won’t win, but you can matter.”

* There are a lot of articles trying to figure out who Johnson hurts. [Sleezebag]'s cheerleading news agency Brietbart says it will undercut Hillary. The limited polling so far says it takes away from both about equally. Conservative groups say it will hurt them. Liberal sources fear it will hurt them.

I think it's a little eye opening how the Chinese manufacturers view our candidates, really.

Much better! Unnatural tan and white eyelids nailed.

Who are those guys flanking [Sleezebag] supposed to be in the group shot?

Okay - I just want to stand up and say that, as a mask artist myself, I find all that crap creepy and terribly unpleasant to look at, and I hope the point is made and the pics stop. ;nod

WHAT?  Let's try that.    [Sleezebag]

Huh.  I don't think I can fix that without messing up the filter, making it case-sensitive.  Oh well.  Best dump that turkey, then.

Hey, I like the Hillery one.  Looks better on the mask than she does in RL. 

Now, if they had a good Nixon one!

For what it's worth, I just watched excerpts from Hillary's attack on The Leader.

I thought she was being honest and sincere, and she didn't get on my nerves at all. My wife and niece expressed the opinion that she was right, or at least telling the truth. Without being asked.

------------------
Yesterday [Sleezebag] threatened Republicans who didn't support him.

Today House Speaker Paul Ryan said he would continue to speak out against [Sleezebag] as needed, but he would vote for him because they have more agreements than disagreements.

Notice that he did not come out for David French. This more than anything tells me that a Republican alternative doesn't exist and won't. In fact, it's already too late to get on the ballot in Texas.

* Random quote

Learn to overcome the crass demands of flesh and bone, for they warp the matrix through which we perceive the world. Extend your awareness outward, beyond the self of body, to embrace the self of group and the self of humanity. The goals of the group and the greater race are transcendent, and to embrace them is to achieve enlightenment.
~Chairman Sheng-ji Yang 'Essays on Mind and Matter'
