Boosted_C5 posted:There is nothing dumb about attacking Clinton over her greatest weakness as a candidate - being completely corrupt and perceiving herself as above the law and above we the little people. How do you feel about the Bush administration? Alternatively, how did you feel about the Bush administration before glimpsing the Trump that lies behind our perceived reality?  (Also, glad to hear you support Barack Obama's update to administration telecommunication policy, which mysteriously was implemented after Clinton left office.) I, personally, think her behavior was sketchy but not illegal (barring discovery of a fuckup), and am 100% supportive of the Obama administration's move from "ehh, do what you want as long as it's secure and can be accessed for posterity" to "use the government servers".

To be fair, the state department got hacked big time and Clinton's servers didn't Also wasn't the precedent set by Powell and Condi for running private servers? Was it okay then or something? edit - lol of course they both did and whoops, turns out they received classified info which was confirmed but apparently it's alright if you're a Republican

I mean they deserved it but brownie points for them coming around at the end to realize shits hosed.

Full Battle Rattle posted:He could get testy with the press, especially when Iraq started dragging on well into his second term. If that's what you meant. He was also a party animal back in the day, it's what led to his teetotaling attitude while in office. Interesting side note, he was also in pretty good shape and liked to exercise regularly and was generally pretty health conscious, the son of a bitch. He could bench 185 pounds for 5 reps, which is not too drat bad for a guy in his early 60s.

If I hadn't heard of Lindsey Graham, and then he showed up on Alpha House, I would assume he was a fictional character created for the show. He's a piece of poo poo, but I appreciate him for existing, and for his bizarre sidekick relationship with John McCain.

Say what you will about Andrew Sullivan; I'll always adore the man for constantly referring to Graham as "Butters" (ie: Cartman's timid, frequent sidekick on South Park).

i love RCP's election thingummy where you can play with vote totals like, if whites break for trump by 63% (romney got them by a bit more than 60%, and there's no black candidate on the ballot) and he boosts white turnout by 3% and black turnout falls to 65% because obama's not on the ballot and 25% of latino voters still support the Republican party (they got a bit more than 27% last time but i'd say a drop is likely and no more latinos turn out than in 2012 then hillary wins in a squeaker if trump loses just 1% of whites, so he's still at 62%, 2% more than romney got against obama hillary wins by nearly 70 electoral votes http://www.realclearpolitics.com/articles/2015/08/26/demographics_and_the_2016_election_scenarios.html it's really fun to mess with

I actually miss his blog posts a lot; I disagree with him on a lot of things, but he's someone who argues his beliefs in good faith, and he's good at reading the way political races are going. Plus he's one of the few former supporters of the Iraq War who openly and unrestrainedly admits that it was an unbelievably big mistake and it was really stupid to support it.

I miss his blog too, mostly because he was better at linking to interesting things than anything Ive found since. His writing was fine too, its just funny that a smart guy took 20 years to realize american conservatives were different than Tories.

What happens to Rubio's career after this? After this he blows his GOP up-and-coming status. He doesn't have a ton of political experience to fall-back on and will he even be able to win a major office in Florida again if he loses to Trump there? Is it just small potatoes positions, consulting/lobbying work, and/or appointed positions? Or does he get scrapped for spare parts to be used in RomneyBot v3?
