Haha Chilcott has a lot to explain.

Wow

Well, that's a bombshell that everyone always suspected.

Alternate source, so it's not just the one place saying it either.

LOL. That was good. Except that woman who is supposed to be Hillary looks way too good compared to the real Hilldog.

Lol. Lots of socks. If it smells like bait, folks, best to ignore it. This one's persistence makes me think someone struck a nerve, so it may go on for a while.

You waste from 2 to 3 minutes making a new account while the mods just have to press a button and you're gone.

Sounds like a great MO, buddy. 👆

My reading comprehension is just fine. And you're still wasting more time than them just to prove something to strangers over the net, lol.

Man up, buddy. 👆

There is the issue that as everyone knows the remarks are gonna vanish, there's not much reason to reply, and will often be gone before people even see them.

More effort will be spent making comments that are less likely to be seen.

All that said- thoughts on the E-mail thing anyone? I suspect, while it gets a lot of interest, not much will be done, because it so heavily hits the other party too.

And in general polling, Carson continues to rise. Fiorina's surge looks like it may have stalled, as she moves back to the middle pack- which isn't the worst place to be as long as that's where it levels out, which'd leave her in position to move forward again. Cruz looks like he may be passing up Rubio soon- which would be another non-establishment candidate doing well.

No no remember he created a program so you just have to press a button to create an account.

I'm also 99% sure he tried to contact me on AIM for some reason, though I was away from my computer at the time.

Here's an interesting graph:

The Republicans are more likely to be dissatisfied in both directions, while the Democrats don't have much problem with how right/left their candidates are.

"More conservative". Holy shit.

Mother of Jones

This one is going to cause some amusement:

Lindsey Graham may not make the next Republican junior-varsity debate (i.e. the one Fiorina was in first time before she broke out)

The requirements as set by CNBC?

In order to make the main debate, the “candidates must stand at an average of 2.5 percent in the national polls by NBC News, ABC News, CBS News, CNN, Fox News and Bloomberg – released from Sept. 17 to Oct. 21.”

To make the JV debate, a candidate has to hit 1 percent in any one of those polls.

This makes me almost as happy as when Rick Perry dropped out.

Jim Webb has left the building.

Not sure if it's too late in the game, but he should just run as a Republican. I'd take his angry-ass over any of the Repubs currently running.

Full Story Here Seems to be true, as multiple outlets are saying the same thing.

Too bad you can't see what a good one is.

Are you even in touch with reality or are you so off on another planet you can't see the writing on the wall with the progressive policies in America! And what's worse is the republicans have been SHILLS.

Oh, Webb's not a bad politician or anything, but I prefer others for their political stances on a number of issues.

Left-wing economics have proven more successful for decades and decades. Social stuff like civil rights for lgbt people, well those are making progress and have been widely successful, and are an incredibly obvious good thing.

Ultimately, "Why can't you see?" is not as convincing as either numbers stretching back decades and decades, or visibly watching people happy over finally having rights.
