Didn’t John Dickerson try to fact check during the debate and he got boo’ed by the audience and the candidates were like “lalalalalala” with their fingers in their ears?

I think the Democrats have an election where you have two genuinely solid candidates, and we’re undergoing a wonderful (if often heated) debate on how best to govern. The GOP election is really a mad dash to the bottom, an angst-ridden maelstrom of fear and disgust, that really makes me cringe. It really brings out…

I know the Clinton / Sanders competition is a hot button topic around here, but I for one am pleased that Dem voters have two very qualified candidates to pick from. It seems highly revealing that the Republican contest is such a clown car cluster fuck. There really is no clear “winner,” just who is less of a total…

There are times when I almost feel bad for Jeb!: he designed this whole “Shock and Awe” primary strategy specifically to clear the field early and avoid having to bring in Bush II and his bewildering 70-80% GOP approval rating. That would have set him up nicely to further distance himself from Bush II in the general…

“Oh come on now, this is shrill corporatist pandering. It won’t be an impassioned, cogent argument on behalf of the people until Bernie says screams it.”

Oh come on now, this is shrill corporatist pandering. It won’t be an impassioned, cogent argument on behalf of the people until Bernie says it.

H’s Twitter competency in the midst of gross political buffoonery brightens my whole morning.

Republicans hate Hillary Clinton more than any other American woman.

Let’s not forget it was the NY Times’ continuous attempt to make Whitewater a thing despite having no conclusive proof and the Clinton’s been proven innocent elsewhere is what eventually led us to Ken Starr’s investigation which eventually led us to Monica. The Times might not have been part of the “Vast Right Wing…

I really don’t understand how they could endorse a candidate who they distrust enough to write an article expressing Very Serious Concerns any time someone so much as whispers a potential scandal to them. Is it just so that they have some cover when people accuse them of being unfair, or do they honestly think it’s a…

I imagine those “things she’s said” include pride in her long political record and work for children and women, refusing to renounce her (really quite popular!) time and work as Senator for New York, and likewise her time and work as Secretary of State. And, surely, all of her pronouncements about her qualifications…

Bernie has a clear, concise “we” message, even if it’s pie-in-the-sky: The game is rigged and we have to take the country back from the privileged few and make it work for everyone.

“In such a context, this particular piece is not much more than your aunt pulling you aside yet again to tell you about how her neighbors are letting their dogs shit in her yard.”

Maureen Dowd continuing to be horrible aside, I really don’t see this sense of “entitlement” from Hillary Clinton. She’s a hard worker with an incredible amount of experience, and it feels like her daring to show up and run for president gets her accused of entitlement. Is there anything that she has actually said…

Why don’t any of these morons know that a “lame duck” president is a sitting president after the next president is elected? So from November to January of their last term. The entire last year of the last term does not make a president a “lame duck”!

“WELL-REGULATED.” I mean what the genuine fuck it is one sentence long, and that sentence includes the phrase “well-regulated.”
