Head of the FEC probably does as much work in a day as Gowdy does Jeb's SuperPAC is probably meeting to ensure they've got material ready to capitalize on HW's looming death to ensure it's the shot in the arm the Jeb! campaign needs. I wonder if they're raffling off the chance to be the one who gets to hold the pillow, just in case

Jesus, what kind of idiot FEC chairman would say something like that?? It's like putting up a window cling that says "this house is not monitored by any form of security program and also we left the back door unlocked just in case"

Grem posted:"well, we aren't going to do anything about that stuff". Pro-Jeb Bush super PAC might deploy ground staff to states quote:"Yeah, we're looking at some of that," a Right to Rise official said of the possible deployment Sunday. "The campaign is front and center on that, but there are a lot of supporters around the country who might want to be organized to do some stuff." Another interesting bit... quote:Right to Rise previewed its next phase of advertising in a meeting with donors, showing them a handful of ads it plans to run in the near future. All of the ads are positive commercials about Bush. HA!

I thought it was more of an exasperated, "Nothing is going to happen because there are three Republicans and three Democrats on this commission and SPOILER ALERT, those three Republicans know where the bread is buttered."

If every criminal already knows your house isn't guarded does it really matter if you tell your family about it too? Full Battle Rattle posted:Ben Carson seems to be falling apart quicker than anyone had intended. His numbers in Iowa are more of an indictment of Iowa than a testament to his quality as a candidate. He'll go through the same Rise/Discovery/Fall cycle that the Not-Romneys did in 2008. Trump is this campaign's Romney, and we've already seen Walker, Jeb!, and Fiorina crash and burn as Not Trump. Carson is next from the wingnut side, and I suspect Cruz will also do the loop before voting starts. On the establishment side we're already seeing Rubio gaining ground - he'll cycle through to "Fall" soon enough, and after him I suspect Kasich will have a turn before establishment panic sets in mid January. Huckabee, Rand, Christie, and Santorum have already had their day in the sun. Much like 2008, voters will discover and then reject every Not Trump candidate until they finally find a suitable alternative to Trump by electing Clinton to the presidency.

Grem posted:Also helps if the head of that commission doesn't just say "well, we aren't going to do anything about that stuff". The commission is an idiotic creation that sought non partisanship through requiring an equal number of Republicans and Democrats for composition and a majority vote to act. Predictably the commission now views every issue through a partisan lens and votes 50-50 on everything. Also I believe they are actually missing several members as they must be confirmed by the Senate. The Commissioner wasn't saying they won't do anything, rather pointing out that they won't be able to do so in a futile attempt to get people to do something to fix it. Which is of course a completely separate issue from the fact that their regulatory power is weak and they are completely understaffed for the post Citizens United world drowning in PAC money.

Patter Song posted:http://www.mediaite.com/tv/im-a-little-confused-chris-wallace-grills-carson-on-medicare-alternative/ The stealth best quote from this is: Ben Carson posted:If you're a regular person.. you already have a job that gives you health benefits so... 56% of people receive health benefits from an employer, however, when you look at the breakdown it turns out that this number falls to 35% once you remove people covered under their spouse's employer health benefits. So when Ben Carson says "regular person who has health benefits from their employer" he's talking about somewhere around 35% of the population. https://www.census.gov/prod/2013pubs/p70-134.pdf ErIog fucked around with this message at 01:57 on Oct 26, 2015 |

ErIog posted:The stealth best quote from this is: Mitt Romney said that 47% of America didn't take personal responsibility. Now Ben Carson is saying that 65% of the population isn't "regular". To be fair, he is a doctor, maybe he means they have sporadic bowel movements. More seriously, every person thinks that their personal experience is ordinary. When I was growing up, I thought most people worked for IBM like my dad. In my defense, I was 7. Carson is older than that.

So let's look at the scoreboard for a second: Donald Trump has cuckolded Fox News, held the entire RNC for ransom before taking his "pledge", gotten a Ford plant moved back to the US (facts irrelevant here), gotten CNBC to change their debate rules, successfully insulted both McCain and Romney, made the RNC face the fact that Bush did 9/11, put into motion some crazy long-game against Carson, and memed his way into 4chan's hearts. His only loss was that he didn't get CNN to donate their ad money to charity, but that was a longshot. Yeah, he's an idiot though, he has no strategy and he's just got a great streak of luck going.

That's a bad assumption. There's no such thing as World War III because there will be no historians around to name it, that's been the case since nuclear armament was a thing. Begun, the trade wars have.
