It always pisses me off when canidates tell us how bad a person is until they lose the nomination. Then that person is suddenly a great choice.
The fact that Cruz and Trump can't stand each other is a big problem. In message board context: attack the policy/words/actions but not the person. Cruz and Trump made things personal. Trump attacked Cruz's wife and dad for Christ's sake.
Bernie has said bad things about some things Hillary has done such as vote in favor of the Iraq war and take money from huge corporate interests. That's not quite the same thing as calling Hillary names or saying Hillary's dad killed JFK. Do you see the difference?
Still, Bernie has been badmouthing Hillary for a year now. All of a sudden she is his choice. Freaking hypocrite. I feel the same about the republicans who now endorse Trump.
I don't get the logic here. No Democrat or Republican could ever endorse another candidate they ran against if they were held to this standard. Sanders has pretty much avoided running down Hillary as a person, or assailing her character. He's said the whole time the priority is stopping Trump and kept the focus on policy differences between him and Hillary.
I think Cruz are in the right here simply because Trump is such an exceptionally horrible candidate. Otherwise I'd expect most candidates to compromise, fall in line and push the person that comes closest to what they want. That's how things get done.
I disagree. With all the "establishment bashing" Bernie did only to fall right in line with what the "establishment" does is hypocritical to me. If he wanted us to truly believe he is anti establishment, he would have endorsed someone else.
Bernie has been working in the senate with other establishment politicians his entire career. He didn't badmouth them personally because he knew he'd have to work with them if he ever wanted anything passed. Most of them are thick-skinned enough to not take it personally when Bernie decries Wall Street or "the establishment".
Compromising doesn't mean you abandoned your principles. It means you took what you could get to get things done and move things forward.
The Cowardly Ryan goes for the record for most white people in a selfie.
lmao
I think I see one person of color there - on second thought, looks more like the result of a tanning booth.
Bengazi = non-issue.
Intern picture = huge issue.
Who says its a big issue - was it on the nightly news? Breathe wart. Sloow down. Theeere... muuuch betttter...
A picture like that doesn't say something to you? My kids are that age and they hang with all kinds of kids. The one thing the 20-somethings in my experience do better than the boomers is mix without thought. So, from my perspective, you have to work to get a room full of young people that bleached out. It's not a big issue in that I'm sure there isn't a 'Whites Only' sign on the outside of the room. But doesn't it make you think what it is about whatever that ended up in a room that monotone?

It was a joke.
I find it disheartening that there are no African Americans in that picture. But, if an African American wanted to be a Republican intern, just go apply and start trying to make changes and make a difference.

republican (or democrat FWIW) intern to make changes and a difference. that's a good one. ha ha.
Are all of these interns 18 or older so that I can .... have thoughts? Because the Dem picture, front row, black dress, Afro style hair .... uh-huh.
Notice that both the Republicans and Democrats intern pictures have very punchable people in the first row far left. Equally as punchable I would go as far as saying.
