...Kasich had the best political ground game of all the candidates and has appeal across party lines . Now I wait to see if Trump goes after him and how Kasich responds . My hope is that Kasich remains above the fray and keeps emphasizing his track record as Governor of Ohio and former congressman .

:banana: God I hope so. I need somebody to vote for if Hillary takes it, and I'm sure she has enough dirty tricks available to take it no matter how much momentum Bernie ends up with.

The more popular Bernie becomes, the more Hillary imitates him in her speeches. Pure swagger jacker.

@ Bold - I laughed. Yeah, he would have taken significant amounts of minorities from Hillary and that's Bernie's biggest weakness. Bernie would have definitely taken Iowa but overall I don't know.

I agree about Trump, but he's evolved into more than that. He's actually gotten some moderate support, which is scary. He opened with primarily racists (he knew EXACTLY what he was doing too, fucking genius) but that was really just to get the attention. This seems to be an election of outsiders. I thought Rand would do better for that reason but Trump stole his fire.

The Republican party's weakness is their lack of leadership. Unfortunately they don't have a single viable candidate except Kasich. As much as I'd like to think Rubio is viable he's way too young and inexperienced. He can't get off talking points like in the previous debate and that will destroy him in the general election.


Just not true. Kasich would be a good candidate but I think he's a weak debater and a little awkward. Rubio had one bad debate, I still think he is the best candidate to beat Hillary. Although if he loses this primary, he's still going to be president someday. Christie would also be a good candidate.

He's a Republican traitor who probably won't vote Republican again in his life. Plus, the black community perpetuates the trauma of the past onto their kids, so they see racism everywhere. It's why you feel victimized getting a pat down at the airport.


You're responding exactly as Duff predicted....

Rubio is too inexperienced, and in a battle of establishment candidates that's all you have. If it's him versus anybody he loses because he has no track record, including Bernie who has him outclassed on both public opinion of his positions and history of service. He will definitely be a serious contender going forward even if he loses though.

you can add this to the long list of things you've gotten wrong though i don't think that'll deter you from making more dumb claims with the same level of confidence

Colin Powell said something, so immediately I should abandon my position?

You two are really stupid sometimes.

Not saying you should immediately change your position, but he predicted you would just double down and you definitely did that by opening with him being a party traitor. There was no consideration, just a blind backlash.
