Sheeeeeit. You say "could" like it's a museum exhibit. If your mama didn't have a coffee can full of bacon grease under the kitchen sink, you've got a lot to learn about southern cooking.

Matt Drudge made his reputation by breaking the Monica Lewinsky story and has been trying unsuccessfully to repeat that ever since.

My hypothesis is that he isn't actually working very hard at all to make a narrative, he can just pull in a paycheck by posting stories that interest him (with far-right implicit bias) and dipping into his bottomless folder of unattractive pictures of Democrats. And homestly, while I think his politics are garbage, I can respect that career choice.

Hurricane Sandy happened after the VP pick. When the only public hit against Christie, as far as the Republicans were concerned, was he's fatter than Taft.

Christie's life since :mitt: passed him up has been a slow unfolding of every reason why he was passed up. It's a little surprising considering the general incompetence of Romney's campaign that they successfully detected Christie's status as a jenga tower.

Yea, he in general was seen as a not great option long before that. People have known he was most likely a corrupt sack of poo poo before the bridge poo poo came up, he's always been an abrasive 'hur hur I'm from Jersey here's me and my crazy wife screaming in some teacher's face' slob, and just in general the jokes about what a fat lump he is write themselves. He's a terrible VP option that adds literally nothing to the ticket aside from a big screaming mouth to point at places you don't really care about but want to insult people in.

So he's the perfect Trump pick.

Not disagreeing, but very little of that is disqualifying for a Republican. 4 years ago he was see, publicly, as a fatass Republican winning in a Democratic state with just enough known rear end in a top hat to possibly complement a guy who feels bad about saying the word 'darn'. A brief cursory examination of him as far as vetting goes probably threw up enough red flags to make any semi-sane campaign balk. I was just pointing out that Christie's mortal sin against the Republican Party didn't happen until well after he was passed over.

Considering how Utah is reacting to Trump, that's almost assuredly near the top of the list. All the petty corruption and idiocy was just more weight being put upon the already broken camel's back.

Yea you're not wrong, he went from 'eh useful idiot' to 'gently caress THE TRAITOR WHO HUGGED THE DEMON' after the choices that mattered were already gone. They were less the death blows to his future and more the nails in his coffin.

I've been seeing some of that recently. I got a pamphlet about how "ethnic" bars in our neighborhood (which has been majority hispanic since the spanish killed all the natives) could be fronts for child prostitution rings where, according to the pamphlet, girls as young as 12 were forced to drink 50 drinks a night and have sex with hundreds of men per hour. It was loving bonkers.

Fast forward to the next weekend, a regular asks the bartender, "hey man what's with all these old white guys comin in all of a sudden, like they're looking for something"

I threw it away because it was handed to me on my walk to the coffeeshop by either a mormon or a jehova's witness and I didn't want to hold on to it, but they usually swing by the house every three months and if they leave anything more exciting than The Watchtower next time, I'll post it. I could be exaggerating the numbers but it was definitely more than one person could drink and more than one person could have sex with.

The Benghazi stuff is something I'd expect, though it's infuriating. Especially since the narrator is someone "who served in Benghazi". But a campaign about the child trafficking Hispanics is the type of dumb poo poo that blows up in your face like you're holding an ACME package.

Looking at the vast majority of polling over the last entire year, yeah... Rasmussen is poo poo, plain and simple. Of the polls since July '15 that actually show Trump ahead of Clinton, 4 are Fox News and 3 are Rasmussen. Only 4 other polls - at all, from anyone, all year - have ever shown Trump ahead.
