Ted Cruz is on TV right now talking about how his military strategy would be more like Reagan's. He unironically said that the reason the Iranians released the hostages when he was elected was because they knew who they were dealing with now, as opposed to, you know, the arms deals.

Raskolnikov38 posted:Is she particularly awful or is it more 'a Rothschild lol'? She was basically the poster lady for bitter PUMAs who would vote McCain out of spite after it was clear Hillary would lose the nomination. The mistake the GOP made was believing that people like this, though they exist, would exist in enough numbers to help win the race for the GOP. Particularly precious was someone with the title "Lady deRothschild" calling Obama an elitist: http://articles.latimes.com/2008/sep/18/nation/na-trailrothschild18 quote:Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild is an ardent Hillary Rodham Clinton supporter who raised scads of money for the New York senator's failed presidential campaign. She and her husband, Sir Evelyn Robert Adrian de Rothschild of the prominent Rothschild banking family of England, split their time between New York and a British country estate.

Hillary may or may not be part of a dynasty, Bernie may or may not have a problem with certain demographics (minorities), Donald Trump: a) uses images of men dressed in nazi uniforms as part of his campaign imagery and b) informs us that his immense wealth is too big for the FEC's financial disclosure forms, and more  in general at the Republican clown car.I think that about covers it.

Fulchrum posted:I'd argue against McCain being put in the big loser's category. He was a war hero with a reputation for being against the party leadership with some decent practical ideas. He was losing, but with dignity. He didn't enter walking punchline territory til Palin. McCain has a good story and he used to be ol' Maverick John McCain, but 70 year old John McCain was a bad candidate in 2008. He frankly seemed lost. The party was NOT enthusiastic about him being the candidate in '08. It was another Romney '12 situation where the least worst guy was given the job by default. On paper he is everything you're saying he is, but that was all a long time ago, and he wasn't that guy anymore in 08, and was a lovely candidate who ran a bad campaign and did really stupid things like pick Sarah Palin. Obama won by as much as a black dude named Barack could have possibly won.

Obama won by as much as a black dude named Barack could have possibly won. At the same time, Obama ran a fantastic campaign, and also the economy was exploding and George Bush had just been president for eight loving years. I think it would have been hard for any Republican candidate to win in 2008. I'm not sure how much of that was McCain's weakness as a candidate. And when you look at something like the Palin pick, I would argue he was already losing and would have lost anyway whether or not he picked Palin or someone else.

I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that the senate's most notorious warhawk made a bad candidate in 2008 - a year when america was knee-deep in two expensive and increasingly-unpopular wars - regardless of past willingness to break with his party on domestic policy.

MEANWHILEMcCain, via the New Yorker posted:Many Republicans assume that Trump’s current position at the top of national polls won’t last, and McCain, who said that he last met Trump many years ago, pointed out that conservatives are starting to learn more about Trump’s liberal past. “He was a big Democratic supporter,” he said. “Some of this stuff is going to come out: he gave more money to Democrats than Republicans, he had Hillary Clinton at his wedding. You know, he’s attacking Hillary Clinton after she was in the front row of his—I don’t know which wedding it was.” (Trump has been married four times.) http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/john-mccain-has-a-few-things-to-say-about-donald-trump
