That's what happens though.. at DU. May the best person win to beat the teabagger in 2016.

And this country barely survived the last Bush in the White House. I'm not looking forward to more war, and Republicans are ITCHING for two more: Iran and Syria.

You can bet your affordable health care insurance that any Republican who gets into the White House will come in finding ways to push the United States into those two wars for Israel and for the MiC.

Thanks but no thanks. I'll vote for whichever Democrat will win the nomination, and I'll refuse to tear down any Democratic candidate before noon January 20,2017.

I will vote for whoever the nominee is. But, I am not going to pretend I am thrilled about the inevitable one. Any Democrat is going to be better than any Republican that is in the clown car.

distant cousins.

Dumbya became gov in Jan. 2005 and left office in Dec 2000 when selected by SCOTUS for prez. You'll be sick of jebbie if he wins.

...now.

deciding the best candidate for our side. How can you get the omelet without breaking some eggs? I'm with ya ... let the best candidate come out of the primaries with the mud on them and then crush the republicans with their STRENGTH. To merely step aside for a candidate broadcasts unbelievable WEAKNESS and will be seen as such by the voting public. We. will. lose.

the world would be a different place. Sadly they did not and we got stuck with 8 years of dangerous stupid.

And have Dems, Libs and Proggressives learned their voting lessons?

I won't hold my breath.

My back in time watch......


November 6, 2014......

-_-

has little power in texas.

abbott though is just a bottomfeeder and smart enough to be criminal, i think.

getting open carry laws passed in Texas.

thing is, I'll walk thru the fires of hell to keep a Repug out of power.

I'd take Hillary if I had to.

But I sure do hope we have a better candidate in the general!

Bernie would be AWESOME but he doesn't have "the looks" to pass muster in today's photoshopped/airbrush infotainment news industry. And it's very unfortunate that many people wouldn't be able to look past that and pay attention to what he's actually saying and proposing because he is SPOT ON!!

Change the Democratic Party from an exclusive, triangulating ball of police state militarization and corporate ass kissing.

Either that or welcome Pres. Bush.

...extensively on how to do that and how it works. You will find that by being active locally you will be called on to choose State delegates, and may even be a delegate yourself. It happens from the ground up, and you have to be involved. It's not some miraculous event.

My perception of MM is that he's quite the schmoozer, a natural politician. It doesn't surprise me at all that he would be effective. A lot of the rest of us here are definitely not natural politicians even if we are interested in politics. There aren't all that many NASCAR fans who can even pit crew, let alone drive.

...how to get into politics, since he said he wanted to run for statewide office some day. Ech, the guy was such a bullshitter. But I patiently explained how to get his name known by running for some easy to win local office and then start leapfrogging up. His eyes totally glazed over.

Count me among the legions who are not natural politicians -- it's really not me. But I am interested, and I can sure recognize someone with valid longtime experience willing to share what he knows.

we look forward to the occasional hurricane to take our minds off the Republican farts emanating from Tallahassee.

But we'd all like to give him the Littlefinger.

(I'm sure this post will confuse many who don't watch HBO)

If Bush is elected, I'm gone.

You can reason your way through a situation with a pissed off rattlesnake if you aren't too close or haven't stepped on it and diffuse the situation. Plus a rattlesnake is smarter.

Whoever the Democratic Party picks out before we even have our primaries in NC (we will be left with whoever hasn't dropped out by then), I will vote for one of them. Whoever wins that gets my vote in the general. Unless I am on my death bed and unable to move or speak or blink Morse code or whatever other method would be acceptable to vote, I will vote against any Bush that ever tries to get near the White House again. And that goes for the other moronic Republican jerks who will be running too. I don't want any of those assholes near the White House again. I will vote against them even if I have to crawl to the polls for some reason.

So, all in all, unless someone really inspires me at this point, I kind of don't care who gets picked in the Democratic primaries at this point. ABB ABR Anybody But Bush Anybody But Republicans and that includes their idiot cousins, the Teabaggers. Anybody but them too.

I imgaine that winning Florida would be very important to a GOP'er

Yes, Obama won it twice. However, this is the state that elected Rick Scott twice and put Marco Rubio in the Senate.

Obama has largely followed the Wall Street agenda, especially on K-12 public education.

The primary difference with Republicans is he is at least willing to spend money on ed.

Hillary is from the same wing of the Democratic Party. What evidence is there that she will be any less corporate compliant?

This Floridian watched Jeb! dismantle our public education system. My youngest, a HS senior, has paid the price in so many ways. People so conveniently forget how bad it is under Republican rule.

I will campaign for and vote for the Democratic nominee. Period. End of story.

and piss on a grass fire then vote for any republican

all of this pre-drama drama just wears me out. i will vote for the democrat, i will work to try and get everyone else to vote for the democrat. that's a given. the thought of any of the republicans being made president sickens me.

nominee for President.

of Jeb and education, here ya go:

After that gem, my wife and I ran to an attorney to get written living directives.

Maybe they're before your time.
