 |  And before this, there was a possibility that NM going Johnson could have thrown the election to the House, which I would have enjoyed if only as a matter of interest to a person with a political science degree. I was working overtime on my NM people to help make that happen. 
 
But that was a couple weeks ago when the national polling was tight. With Hillary up double digits, I think she'll take the electoral college pretty easily. 
 
I would still love to see it go to the House, though. |

He's an embarrassment too. Mr. Chick enjoys going to his local town halls which draw predominantly an audience of people who think he sucks. But he stacks the Q&A with retirees asking about Social Security and Medicare. |

 |  My dream is Donald Trump coming in third.  
 
The Republican leadership ought to just be happy he's likely too old to run again in 2000.  Because Trump completely owns them in Republican primaries.  
 
Next time they just have to worry about Peter Thiel.

 |  And me.  Those fuckers better worry about me.  I'm a loose cannon and I like to grab a little you-know-what.  'Cuz I'm a star!

It's amazing the crap from this board that I can recall with almost photographic clarity, like how Chef used Q-tips to clean his ears, and the things I have forgotten. 
 
In any case, I am sure that a Flower/Less ticket could compromise on a slogan. 
 
ETA that I vaguely recall a reference to crusty Dockers, but I may be making that up. In any case, it's still way less gross than Trump.
