What I learned from the debate last night is that unless Rand Paul wins the nomination (extremely unlikely) we're going to have a neocon warhawk as our next president...
Trump is a pompous asshole and not very well informed. He got an instant slap by Rand Paul, which was hilarious.

No, he's a job creator.
So you think that the repubs are going to win? I dunno. The democrats are very good at turning out in presidential elections and the electoral college is against the repubs. Heard a democrat commentator on the radio today say he feared a Rubio/Kaisch ticket most. I doubt the Kaisch part but Rubio will be the establishment choice with all the big donor money behind him.
I think Elnono was commenting on his impression that Hillary is a neocon warhawk.
So she's not like Obama's laid back stance?
Her stance seems to be whatever is best for her, politically.
depends on the ticket
bingo
I don't think the GOP can win without at least 30% of the latino vote, due to demographics. That makes Trump a loser in the general, IMO. Rubio is Cuban, which are generally disliked by latinos, BUT I feel he could swing enough of the family BS to resonate enough. Shillary is such a terrible candidate though, anything can happen...
Rubio/Kashic would have a great shot, IMO... I know by today's standards Kashic sounds like a RINO, but that's what moderate Republicans always sounded, and frankly he sounds like the only guy that can get some of the dissatisfied dems votes from that crowd.
all y'all's assholes want to "tax expend" $Bs on BigCorp and the 1%, but every one of them is against raising the minimum wage.
What should it be raised to? It was something like $3 when I was working nin wage.
Shouldn't the goal be to left people to better jobs.?
$20 over 5 years, and indexed to inflation.
I repeat, if your business depends on paying poverty wages so that your employees incomes are topped up by taxpayers, then YOUR BUSINESS.
It was a poverty wage back when I made $3/hr. That's kinda why you do not make a career out of washing dishes or flipping burgers. And we shouldn't want people to stay in those jobs, either.
what is "back then $3" in today's dollars?
one of the many, many great Repug lies is that minimum wage jobs are stepping stones to great wealth. 100% minimum wages jobs are dead end jobs, not not only for teens.

The electoral college is against the Republicans? Not sure if srs, it's much more beneficial to Republicans than a popular vote would be.
Agreed ... I think the probabilities of a Dem win will vary significantly based on the Rep ticket:
Rubio + Kasich / Paul / Pataki / Graham / other moderate - a 50:50 election
Rubio + Fiorina / Christie / Tea Party type - 60:40 Dem advantage
Bush or Cruz + any VP - 65:35 Dem advantage
Carson (won't happen) + any VP - 90:10 Dem advantage
Trump + any VP - not sure of this because Trump can attract and repel all kinds of people across the political spectrum. Could be anything between 50:50 and 65:35 for the Dems
None of the Repug Klowns will sniff the White House.
What's funny is with such a ty Dem candidate this should be an easy Repbulican win. But you could say the same in 2012. If the Republicans had any kind of decent candidate (like say HW Bush) they'd win this election in a landslide going against such a weak candidate in Clinton. But they'll probably actually lose to her. If W Bush hadn't destroyed Colin Powell's career with the mobile weapons lab crap, Powell would have been an easy two term president against the the Dems have.

Bernie said it: Hillary on her worst day is better than any Repug on his best day.
Bernie just can't stop with the truths.
Librul media, all owned by BigCrop, loves hyper-librul Bernie so much it ignores, ridicules, slimes him.

Wrong. I would rather vote for trump or Paul over shillary
I might even consider voting for Rubio over the neocon
Even if trump and Paul don't make it. I would just abstain from voting than giving that psycho my vote
