Enough with “We go high when they go low”.
Trump’s profane performance today in the East Room of the White House emphasizes Democrats are going to have to get dirty to end this madness.

Trumpsky doesn’t like it when people say they pray for him, but he knows they don’t mean it. I’m praying for him to go golfing in a lightning storm.
None of the pro-lifers probably bothered to ask why Trumpsky supports pro-choice Republican, Kay Granger.
He is a lost cause.
The good news coming out of Iowa : A. 5/6 of the republicans attending in 2016 stayed home in 2020. B. 1/3 of the trump supporters from trump’s 2016 second place finish stayed home in 2020. 99.7% of the non-trumpsters stayed home. C. trump did not score a clean sweep, as William Weld blocked him for a delegate. D. More supporters turned out for each, bernie!, Buttigieg and Warren than for trump. And almost as many turned out for Biden. The total number of Dem attendees was more than 5 times the republican count.
Remember the lesson of John Kerry and his swiftboating. He thought he was above the fray and wouldn’t confront his accusers.
How did that work out for him…
Releasing partial results showing Pete leading, only to find out Bernie actually won, is just the sort of manipulative crap I would expect from the Iowa Democratic Party.
Craig,
Bernie ain’t won yet, still behind in the only numbers that count. Still playing with conspiracy theories I see.
Fact is Iowa, with proportional rewarding of delegate, nobody wins. They are so close that even if Bernie manages to pull ahead of Mayor Pete it is still a tie. Winning and losing in Iowa is all about perception. In that case Bernie lost, as did Joe and Liz. Mayor Pete romped as did Amy.

Pete Buttigieg now on CNN Town Hall: “At a certain time in my life I would have done anything to not be gay… But here I am now… I’m not running to be the gay president of the United States, I’m running to be the president for everybody.”
Yeah, Bernie!’s numbers are all over the place in N.H. but Pete’s are clearly trending up. One very recent poll (Suffolk) has them virtually tied, but most show a 5ish point gap. Stay tuned.
Laurence O’Donnell commented on trump religion tonight. He was forceful and convincing. However, he could have mentioned that trump and his pal putin map almost precisely onto The Book of Revelations’ descriptions of the ‘False Teacher/Prophet’ and the ‘Beast of the Apocalypse’.
One would think that trump’s mocking of prayer at the annual Prayer Breakfast this morning, and his openly hostile disagreement with Jesus’ teaching about loving one’s enemies, should have made the nickel finally drop for a swarm of tele-christians and end times scolders. Yet, all I can hear is the crickets.
Note to Democrats in the pen – don’t take a knife to a gunfight.

SFB is acting like a dictator for life. Kim must be thinking he taught the fool well. Putin is laughing hard, as he continues as dictator for life.
Bernie and Pete on CNN town halls tonight. Probably worth watching.

Housekeeping: Can’t tell if it’s just on my end, but I’m experiencing unusually long page builds. Anyone else?
Newest ad: Mike & Obama!
(And if you think SFB wouldn’t golf in a lightning storm, he was dumb enough to stare directly at a solar eclipse.)
No delays here.
As slow as usual, which is usually slow.
i think if you reload while someone is posting, it slows it down🤷♂️
God bless, Mitt Romney! I’ll say it, again. Good bless, Mitt Romney!
oh, you can’t fight dirtier than people that have no moral-compass or ethics, so don’t bother trying. i’d rather die with a shred of dignity.
I’d rather defeat Trump without dignity.
well you already blew that bud
Housekeeping: Made some minor adjustments to improve page build speed. More to do if necessary. Let me know. help@craigcrawford.com

buh-bye Pete
Poobah, I was about an hour ago. I’ll let ya know if it is continuing.
Joe and Amy on the board, now, with a few delegates between them.
Point out the lies

The baby-bully-in-chief has a cadre of trouble-makers in his corner. Are they on the payroll? Do they get paid in rubles?
“In that case Bernie lost“
lol he’s the new effective front-runner
Pete’s candidacy ends on Super Tuesday.
🤔
Mayor Pete killing it on CNN town hall right now
Anybody got a post for tomorrow? I’m tired
Pete Buttigieg now on CNN Town Hall: “At a certain time in my life I would have done anything to not be gay… But here I am now… I’m not running to be the gay president of the United States, I’m running to be the president for everybody.”
maybe do a repost of sjnwy’s “words matter”?
i liked that one
Good idea, Bink. But sure would like to see more live posts from our ranks.
Hearing NH polls finding Buttigieg closing in on first place
Put one in for ya. Just musings really.

Got it Pogo. Thanks. Musings always good.
Amy was superb in CNN’s NH town hall.
