Traditionally the VP candidate is the attack dog so that the presidential candidate can stay above the fray. Castro demonstrates that he is perfectly suited to that role.

Like or hate Hillary Clinton; at least she was studied and competent and prepared. Biden is just a fucking joke and an insult. Huge difference.

If you throw meat to racists, you’re racist. It doesn’t matter what color your skin is. You made a conscious choice. “I can’t be a racist because I’m non-white” has become such a weird niche for the tiny fraction of non-white Republicans. I had one pull it with me on Twitter after repeatedly defending Ben Shapiro’s…

I just can’t yet. There’s only so much emotion I can give and I’m not ready to spend it yet. Glass of wine, former Gawker sites and my dog eating popcorn I toss him is all I can handle.

I am half of a bad couple then. I’m spending the evening drinking beer and reading Jezebel and Splinter, which at least is politics-ish. My husband is on his second stiff gin and tonic and watching Judge Judy reruns in the bedroom.

“What’d he say, Bernie?”

Well his son did die...but told him to run.

Guys.

Biden’s time to run was 2016 when EVERY democrat wanted him to.  The only reason we had Bernie v Hillary is because Joe decided to take some time off.  He does not get to come back to the table and expect a seat when he is directly responsible for putting us in this position to begin with.

Warren/Castro has been my dream ticket since the first debate.

I’d go in for a real debate/primary with 2-4 serious candidates presenting their actual positions. Watching a basketball game’s worth of wanna-bes test drive their platform planks with sound bites isn’t doing it for me.

He’s just not fit for office. Electibility only goes so far. He’s the old uncle at the cookout still wanting to play R. Kelly and doesn’t know why people aren’t stepping in the name of love.

No (unless I am also a bad person, which is a real possibility.) My husband came home and said he was gonna watch the debate and I noped right out to a different room. I can still hear it though.

You are not alone. Trust me. I don't care who they nominate. If Trump is still vertical in 2020, I'd vote for a paper plate.

Am I bad person for not wanting to think/care about about the democratic primaries and which one of the 75 candidates I want to vote for until about a week before it’s time to actually like vote in the primary?

Wait, it gets worse! There’s some incredibly deep pathology involved in naming his son after his alias, John Barron, which itself was taken from rival, Barron Hilton, whom he degraded as having been a member of the “lucky sperm club.” The levels of projection could exceed the output of the sun itself; and once that…

Ugh. Every time I see this photo or the bed photo with them or the club photo with them or...ugh. It’s so not normal. My bf has this friend who married a priest and he has creep shots just like this with his teenage daughter that always make me vomit in my mouth a bit. Makes me thankful I had a normal Dad who didn’t…

“...Ivana said he didn’t show any interest in them until they became adults.”

My father was a womanizing alcoholic gambler who my mother kicked to the curb when I was a toddler. I didn’t meet him till I was 16. After talking to him for awhile, it was apparent he hadn’t much changed over the years, The one thing I could muster a sliver of respect for was his honesty. He knew he was a fuckup and…

Honestly, good for Barron. Better no father than a narcissistic shitbag.
