Also, who exactly is the target audience for insulting a person by calling them an “oleaginous cretin”? Certainly not your run of the mill Trump supporters.

There’s no slapping going on in that thread. Schmidt is just out there throwing (and landing) haymakers like he’s Mike Tyson circa 1988.

Well, I stopped short of using an old phrase that included a term equating to a female dog because, well, it's no longer acceptable.

The Tyson comparison is apt.

I just saw a Kennedy ad in which he hammered on the need for fresh faces and change while the ad showed pics of JFK, RFK, and Teddy three times.

And since I'm voting Markey in the primary I'll have to figure out which of nine candidates I'll support for my congressional district, MA 4th, which Kennedy's giving up.

on a more general note, it kinda bothered me to see how the DNC are ignoring their young multi-cultural progressive members.
The future of the party is being ignored because the old crusty front think they know what's best.
Lets give anti choice republican John Kasich 20 mins and give AOC 60 seconds...
They never learn.
I hope the likes of Schumer gets booted the next time he's up.
Senate majority leader Warren has a nice ring to it.

Losing elections, we are really good at it.

Not to worry, I saw on the news this morning that he’s put in the paperwork to get on the ballot here in TN.

It's a tough look to pull off: the well-fed deserted island cast-away

Any idea on # of signatures you need as his team seem to be falling short in other places.
