One of the most severe cases of Uncle Tom-ism I've ever seen.

I once had a black server at a restaurant I was eating at. I can't possibly be racist.

Given the women involved, couldn't help thinking of this passage from Iain Banks' Transition:

But of course she was not a racist. To the contrary, as she could point out, in appropriate company (that would be to say, highly limited and avowedly discreet company), had she not tasted of what she thought of as the Dark Pleasures, with blacks, on more than one occasion? The epitome of such enjoyment was, for her, to be taken anally by such a Nubian brute. Privately, she thought of this act as “going to Sèvres-Babylone,” as this was the deepest, darkest and most excitingly, enticingly dangerous Métro station that she knew of.

No because I know the full employment rate is between 4-6%. Oh, right, you mean if I was an uneducated moron Trump voter, yeah I see why idiots would think that.

My point is that's not a Trumpism it's just typical campaign exaggeration and if the parties were reversed you'd be looking at it differently.

For being a Hitler, Trump is really losing in the war criminal endorsement primary. I think he's only got Cheney so far.

He's only got Cheney's endorsement because his daughter is running for congress.

That's not my sense, from various commercials and strategists like Joe Heck's in NV and even Burr in NC (who spoke for Trump once, never to do so again I think). Maybe in the House, but my sense is that candidates are still trying to leave a lot of room between themselves and the presidential campaign, some of them very successfully (Portman in PA).

I was talking about establishment Republican thinkers/media not Senators who actually have to win elections.

Also the best moment of this election was Rubio on the debate stage before NH.

He had vastly overperformed expectations in Iowa, was looking really good in NH in polling and was probably a strong performance there away from uniting the establishment wing of the party and almost certainly winning the nomination and then the presidency [because Rubio could and probably would have beat HRC]

and then he short circuited on live national television.

It's not bad but it can also mask those who have stopped looking for work as they are cycled out of the employment figures. That being said I can't recall an election where people cared about the economy less. The candidates are talking about jobs and all that stuff but it's all wrapped around the existential fear of a Trump presidency.

yeah I'm no longer a u3 statistic since my benefits expired whee

there's enough lovely polling w/ weekly trackers this cycle that they can point to Trump holding a narrow lead depending on how far they want to go with it.
