I think they’re just throwing dirt at the liberal side, any of ‘em whether they’re running or not, just to see what sticks. Just like when they accused Hillary’s 2008 campaign of starting the birther nonsense, and inviting Obama’s half-brother to tonight’s debate. I’m not sure how they think that’s gonna work, but…

I, for one, support her efforts to not make “fetch” happen.

Kind of like whoever it was who tried to say the timing of Hurricane Sandy was Obama’s fault to happen so close to the 2012 election. So...I’m gonna vote for the guy who controls the weather. Cool.

And gods willing, never will.

Alas, my gods-forsaken state doesn’t have early voting, and the hoops you have to jump through for an absentee ballot...

Plus the line now seems to be focusing on the offensive words, rather than the actions, so they can diminish what’s actually going on here. “Oh, no, I’ve never heard him use language like that!” But I don’t see her denying that she’s seen him grab someone.

Yes - my parents are Kingston Trio groupies. I grew up listening to every group they parodied.

Esp. useful as a distraction for him in MO, though it’s not really a swing state like it used to be these days.

This is actually kind of fascinating, if unlikely: http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/how-evan-mcmullin-could-win-utah-and-the-presidency/

Right? A simple, “Hey Don, your mic’s on being recorded” could have diffused it, and left him, if not looking like the “good guy,” at least not as the second-tier fratboy shithead. But yeah, the icing on that cake was badgering that poor woman into hugging them both after hearing what the Trumpster fire does to…

Conway would fawn after anyone who could appear to help her stay relevant.

Man-party? That’s pretty much what they are at this point.

Ugh. My home state had this doozy: http://articles.baltimoresun.com/2001-10-09/news/0110090382_1_19th-amendment-bandwagon-oconnor

The trouble with someone else reporting to an “authority” is that it’s so easy to dismiss - “If she thought it was a big deal, why didn’t SHE come to us?” That happened to me. Granted, it was when I was in school, and it was a vice-principal, but I had a “good ol’ boy” jock harassing me, and was legit afraid of what…

I think it was when he realized that he couldn’t mount a credible campaign against Bush in 2004, and by 2008, it was too late to try to parlay his “America’s Mayor”schtick into the Presidency. He’s been a bitter old crab ever since.

Or you get the “not our jurisdiction” runaround that happened to a friend of mine. She was attacked in a building on campus, so she reported it to the campus police. They claimed their only job was to patrol the buildings and make sure nothing was stolen, and sent her to the city’s police, who then claimed that crimes…

Just give me and my dogs time to escape!

It happened to mewith a BF back in college. We’d had an argument where he’d accused me of cheating on him, and then he jumped on me and I couldn’t push him off.

“I want you to be happy, Queenie. That’s very important to me.” Ye gods.

I still wonder if Bernie had pulled further ahead earlier on, if we’d still have Trump. It almost feels like they were counting on a certain segment’s irrational hatred of Clinton and thinking they could run anyone and win. If they thought Bernie would be the nominee, would cooler heads have prevailed?
