Has Rand Paul figured out a way to run for President and Senator of Kentucky at the same time? Does KY have a late primary so he could hedge his bets and just run for senate there and run for Pres in every other state?

It hasn't been finalized by the full state party (it will be), but the leadership has voted in favor of his plan to convert the KY primary to a caucus which allows him to avoid the issue during the primary.

Primaries need to work like how the Germans used to go about things. The last one to announce their candidacy for President gets beaten to death by the others.

Cigar Aficionado posted:It will be interesting to see where Carson's and Huckabee's supporters go if both men drop out relatively early, as they're pulling about 1/5th of Republican primary voters despite not being serious candidates. Id love to see this with Rand taking New Hampshire because that guarantees the most bitter and viscous campaigns and I really wanna see how many bone tired horrific flubs these 4 can put out. Nothing will make me happier than watching Ted Cruz get politically savaged and Walker's heart getting crushed when his early lead meets Bush money.

If you mean the general election, not the primaries, the polling is not as good for her as I expected. A recent Fox News poll has her tied with Jeb Bush even. Most of the other ones have her +5 or so over the GOP field. ABC's poll has her totally rolling the field though, 10+ over all the Republicans.

The only thing anyone's going to hear from that clip is "Elizabeth Warren was right" Sharkie posted:That line extending down from the Clintons is so drat disingenuous. A cursory check of wikipedia tells me that George HW Bush is the son of Prescott Bush, a former Senator, whereas neither Bill nor Hillary Clinton have any other relations involved in US politics. Incredible.

Wow. Let's see how his opponents react to Jeb making a false statement under oath. Although I'm not sure exactly how a politician goes about bringing this up, since a smart Republican doesn't want to alienate potential Hispanic voters and it's a bit of a delicate balance.

Even before all that nonsense their Romney polls were absolutely precious, its pretty safe to ignore as a polling source without a margin of error that negates the whole exercise.

Nobody's going to care, come on. Someone checked the wrong box on the form on his behalf. Maybe it was him, maybe it was his wife, maybe it was a clerk who wrongly assumed his ethnicity based on his wife's, maybe it was an absent-minded lawyer. He didn't get admitted to college or qualify for scholarships or gain any advantage based on this, it's just a tiny mistake.

We really shouldn't criticize. Jeb identifies as Hispanic and that's his personal choice, which we must respect.

You guys laugh but Jeb registering as Hispanic upped the Hispanic turnout for the GOP 200% last cycle. They are still trying to find the other one.

Not going on Univision at this point is like not going on NBC/CBS/ABC. It is wise not to borrow Boehner's make-up kit beforehand though.

SedanChair posted:Mitt is actually Mexican-American though. Romney's Mexican-American in the sense that Elon Musk is African-American. Correct in the political geographic context, but utterly bereft of the ethnic implications of being Latino or Black and thoroughly insulting when used in an attempt to make a play at relating to racial minorities in the US.

Mexican-Americans aren't racial minorities. Mitt's grandfather was a Mexican national, his father was born in Mexico, he is Mexican-American. He's not Latino.
