Someone's going to get real sick, real soon...

And a preemptive, "I wish you would get real sick, real soon"

I'm surprised there hasn't been more celebration from people here about the Rep from Iowa and his claim that no other "sub-groups" other than whites have contributed to Western Civ.

It's an embarrassment of riches and unfortunately some things get pushed aside. The 60 Minutes interview where Trump spoke over Pence the entire time didn't make a ripple, either. Pence sat there cowed, like a battered housewife, as Trump took nearly every question directed at him - and when Pence did manage a few words, was interrupted time and again by his new boss.

No, everyone wants to talk about the plagiarism followed by the campaign's lame denials. Or even parts of her speech that wasn't pilfered....the irony wasn't lost on a lot of people when hot-and-young- wife number three claimed that Donald "will never, ever, let you down." A Rickroll for sure, as aTm pointed out - but an assertion the Trump ex-wives club would take issue with.

Most Democrat women are sexually attracted to Melania Trump. Most Democrat men are not.

[hedge]

Probably would be more appropriate to move any more conversation about the repub convention and, really, anything else to do with Trump's campaign to the entertainment thread...

[Professor Tiger]

What happened tonight? I'm binge watching House of Cards.

You died

Fortunately, for the Democrats, there aren't a whole lot of intelligent progressives...

That writer is endangering his life writing an article like that, especially in HuffPo. He might wind up with a dumb bell falling on his neck.

(Preemptive "I wish a dumb bell would fall on your neck.")

Yep, rare honesty from a lib.


...Corporate media pundits who write for publications supporting Clinton (I’m looking at you, New York Times, CNN, NPR, and MSNBC) shrug off these numbers as the simple product of longstanding attacks on her credibility by her opponents. This is exactly the kind of nonchalant dismissiveness and shoddy journalism that doesn’t wash with intelligent progressives and independents anymore. There are many, many politicians who have been in the public eye for decades; only a handful are seen to be as dishonest as Hillary Clinton.

It’s not rocket science. The unbiased history shows that she does lie and obfuscate more frequently than other politicians, and she has changed her policy positions more often than most.

All you need to know about that guy is he thinks Bernie can win at the convention.

Some of Sanders radical element will forever be in "bern-it-down" mode. Political neophytes who can't see the forest for that stalk of hemp.

[Toemeesleather]

At least he thinks.

[bluetick]

Melania concurs. "At least he tinks!"

Melania needs to pick up the pace on plagiarizing, then start adding prevarication to her resume and who knows, she might be the first woman prez and succeed her own spouse.

Nevertheless, he should stay far away from Ft. Marcie Park. Don't mess with the Clintons.

The chances of Trump winning the general election remain very slim. If he keeps all the states where he currently leads, he needs to win ALL the big purplish states - FL, NC, VA, PA, and OH - to win by FIVE electoral college votes. That's nearly impossible.

[Toemeesleather]

incorrect....with the media firing both barrels at DT 24/7, the best they can do is have the PAH in lead within the margin of error.

[Toemeesleather]

Buckle up for the next six months: Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton are effectively tied in the swing states of Florida, Ohio and Pennsylvania, according to the results of a Quinnipiac University survey released Tuesday.

With voters split along lines of gender, race and age, the presumptive Republican nominee and the likely Democratic nominee appear poised for tight battles in those states.

How Donald Trump Picked His Running Mate http://www.msn.com/en-us/news/politics/ ... id=U142DHP

Eye-opening article. There are republicans out there who deserve respect - Kasich and Haley for sure. Whereas my own junior senator from Chattanooga is a dirtbag like the man he auditioned for.

[10ac]

As is your senior senator.
