Marco? Rubio!

The Boy King debates in his home state tonight with days to go before the Florida primary where his donors run for the hills if he doesn’t win. Ted Cruz aims to knock him out by beating Rubio for 2d place. Trump claims this will be a “softer” debate. Really? The conventional advice would be to sit on your lead and keep your mouth shut. Can’t imagine him managing that.

  2. Maybe Carson will teach Donald to use his inside voice.

    It’s time for “You, Me and The Apocolypse.”  I look forward to reading the thread later.

  4. Just a short note folks.  I have encouraged everyone to go back and forth if for no other reason than interest and variety.  I had to leave because I lived through the wars of 2008 and simply couldn’t take another round.  Hillary is a woman I not only respect but genuinely believe will be a wonderful president simply because she brings a woman’s sensitivity to the job in addition to being brilliant, hard working, and competent.   It’s not political grandstanding, it is:  “I may not know everything, but I will study the issue, evaluate, formulate a reaction and then try to get cooperation from Congress to develop a plan that will benefit the most people.”  This is not sexy, loud, flag waving or exciting.  It is just getting the job done like diapering the baby while cleaning a four bedroom house, working an 8 hour job and fixing dinner so somebody can come home and tell me he’s tired.
    Well I’ve had enough of the guys being “tired”.  It’s time to let someone do the job who knows what holding it together no matter how tired you are really means.

  16. Little Marco’s immigration policy – I’m here, screw you.

    Educashun? Whutz that?

  19. Social Security?  Sustainable? What, you want details? I’ll retire at 68 sezking Rube.  Increase it to 70 for young kids, who aren’t voting anyway.

  20. Here’s a way to save Social Security $ : Work till you die. No benefits for you, bub.

    Don’t mind the opposition.  I do mind opposition that echoes without facts.  When the supposed Democrats echo the charges of 30 years of GOP nonsense with little or no proof then it is like going on a diet while eating chocolate cake.   Give me an actual FACT rather than just an accusation of the “some people say” variety, I will be more than willing to listen.

  22. Drumpf – Pollyanna measures will do it.  They’re letting him get away with this BULLSHIT? Jesus H.

  25. Drumpf – I’m justsaying very simply… well, yeah, that’s the problem.   Everything you say is simple.

  27. Jamie, you are living in a real world, but general elections are evidence free, and Democrats had better watch and listen to the hairy legged frogs coming their way.

  28. Mr. Drumph really doesn’t have a clue as to what he is talking about.  The alternative of the God Addicted Ted Cruze is disgusting.  Are we ready to surrender to the inevitable of Hillary Clinton please ?  Of course once you surrender you have to confront reality of population and no jobs … but that is an argument for another day.

  31. Kasich as the only semi sane person on stage offering himself up as the sacrificial lamb.  Nominate me so Hillary can wipe me out and four years from now you might have somebody able to run in 2020

  32. Drumpf – Jeff sessions is one of the most respected,  knowledgeable. ..? Wtf he’s neither on any issue.  A good friend went to law school with him. STUPID is the word he used. And he’s a conservative.

  37. What is it that I can’t watch a Republican debate without using the word bullshit?

  40. Honest to God. The rube thinks that their mission field whatever the f*** that is are Muslims who are looking to convert to Christianity?

  44. Salvation Army, sj.  Covers my bald head. Some day I’ll upload or download a picture, whichever is what ya do.

  45. Dearest Craig

    “Jamie, you are living in a real world, but general elections are evidence free, and Democrats had better watch and listen to the hairy legged frogs coming their way.”

    I know and I hate it and it makes me want to cry while looking up “The Marching Moron” and checking out the population numbers.  Being a thinking person in the real world is very sad making.  So the best I can do is look to another brilliant woman and say please hold off the dark.

  46. Boy king is screwed.  He’ll lose his home state.   We have to expand our laws to include violations of the Geneva Convention. God save us

  48. Jamie, all I am saying is don’t ignore or dismiss her baggage, figure out how to carry it to a convincingly safe place. That is how she is best served.

  49. Okay, let me get this straight. Trump says he will tell anyone and everyone that he’s pro-israel, but he’ll want the other side to think that he is neutral with respect to them? Have I got that right?

  51. OMG the mention of Eddie Haskell reminded me that I have a totally x-rated poem about Ginger and Gilligan’s Island.  Boy do I have literary checkered past.  If you want it, you have to ask. ?

  53. I don’t think I could stand a Kasich campaign in the fall.  He’s so needy

  54. Obama’s Rules of Engagement are wrong and I don’t know what the hell they are anyway so I’m just making all this up. Oh by the way we don’t have the combat troops on the ground I’m suggesting but that’s okay. Knock out isis, listen to generals, can’t fight, carbon footprint.  STFU

  56. Marco can work with Dems to get things done for Vets woooohooooo

    Marco and Bernie  that’s a picture

  63. Craig

    I don’t mind any “baggage” Hillary might have as long as it is her own.  No man running for office would be expected to explain his wife.  No one holding an office in another administration would be expected to justify every action while in  that role.

    Apparently Hillary is guilty for every action since the age of 17 plus anything her husband might have done and heaven help her if the President took one wrong step while she was SoS.

  69. well, that’s enough nonsense. Cleveland and LA are playing, which might be the last match up between Lebron and Kobe. Got to go

  72. You folks have all been wonderful. I feel as though I’d been there, while luckily managing to avoid it.

    Thanks.

  73. A wee small confession. I had the choice of watching the debate or attending Cheryl’s spring concert. I chose the concert hands down and it was superb. I had a far better night than any of those who watched the debate.

    Thanks to all for keeping me in the debate loop. I think that I didn’t miss much.

  74. I have not disappeared, a life long friend showed up and for the first time in over forty years we have more than an hour lunch together.  Showing him my world in Maryland is a lot more fun than watching politics, even more fun than watching Prime Ministers questions on C-Span.

    He is also a far right Republican, as far right as I am far left.  We made a pact to avoid politics because neither of us will change position and there is no reason to irritate each other.

    Could HRC be more dynamic and exciting like Bill?  Probably not.  She is not Bill.  HRC will do alright in the Oval Office.

  75.  

    “Cruz looks like a young Grandpa Munster with a decent haircut”

    pogo, yesss! that’s it!  but a more sinister munster
