It's 3 AM and somewhere in the world, a tweet is happening. Your vote determines who answers that tweet.

Chris Christie posted:I know it's early and the MAINSTREAM MEDIA needs something inconsequential/stupid to bark about and make hay out of, but I can't help getting giddy over the idea that Democrats would be dumb enough to run away from Clinton, and toward a dumb-rear end like O'malley no less. Dude your entire party is a literal joke. One of your current front runners is thanking God for veterans dying, and the other is comparing busting unions to fighting terrorism. The GOP here is the one running from viable candidates, not the democrats.

Nobody is running away from Clinton. The email thing is a minor blip and will fade away despite the Republicans' best efforts to paint as the worst scandal in the history of United States politics. You've been watching too much Fox News.

If (lol) Hillary doesn't run, someone who isn't currently running like Gillibrand or Patrick or Hickenlooper or a Castro is going to get the nomination, it's really probably not going to be O'Malley.

Since when are the Democrats stuck with a black and white choice of Hillary or Gov. Carcetti? There are plenty of viable Democratic candidates that just aren't going to make a stir or get any coverage if and until Hillary says she's out. Republicans also have viable candidates. Just none of them appear to want to run against lunacy.

Lunacy (or a willingness to participate in same) is currently a required element of the job description for Republican candidates.

The Democrats could run a card board cut out of Joe Biden and still win with the current GOP line up. Just stand him at the debate podium and let Carson/Walker/what ever other idiot the Republicans find hang himself.

The reason the media was hyping O'Malley yesterday is that he held an event and people who willingly attended that event gave them a bunch of quotes about how great they think O'Malley is. This is the same polling strategy that had Mitt Romney convinced he was going to win.

I fail to see any charisma anywhere in this election, actually. Maybe Deval Patrick if Hillary was out? I've barely seen anything of the guy. I'm talking about candidates that can maybe win. Christie is going nowhere and Trump will not run. The GOP field is like the 1988 Dem field. A bunch of people no one outside their own states cares about, with no charisma (all of them), fighting to stop the one candidate who would be guaranteed to lose (all of them).

I would love to see one of the Castro's go for it in the event of Clinton not running. If only Mark Dayton didn't already have health issues and had a bit more ambition. It would be great to see Walker vs Dayton presidential debates. Especially considering the relative states of Wisconsin vs Minnesota right now.

CNN posted:Carson had asserted Wednesday morning on CNN's "New Day" that homosexuality is a choice because people "go into prison straight -- and when they come out, they're gay." God this guy is amazing. "You can't make me talk about things I don't want to get killed by the public on!"

Ronald Reagan could rise from the dead and he would still lose to Joe "Cardboard" Biden by 5 points. The Republican party itself are why every candidate is terrible, not because they can't find any good ones.

People keep acting like if they hold out one day a great candidate will descend from on high and lead the GOP to victory. The Republican base has been getting narrower and narrower for decades. Who knew it's hard to find good presidential candidates when the only way to advance in GOP is to appeal to literally 1 demographic and noone else.
