PARK CITY, Utah (AP) — Govs. Scott Walker and Chris Christie said presidential rivals in the Senate don't do anything. Sen. Marco Rubio denounced "old ways" in an indirect slap at older contenders. Sen. Lindsey Graham said his party may be going down a "death spiral" if it doesn't embrace minority and younger voters.

In fighting for attention Friday at a luxury mountainside donor retreat convened by 2012 Republican nominee Mitt Romney, several 2016 contenders let loose some elbows at each other. Most did not name names, but Christie did.

"If you want to know how little they know," he said of senators, "watch what Rand Paul has done the last two weeks."(continued)

I didn't know that this generation wants to embrace a 21st century Paul Lynde.

Minorities are overrated. Take away their foodstamps and they are nothing. With the young, if they don’t think they are doing something “historic,” they will stay home and smoke their bong.

Show me one Democrat candidate that will energize the youth and minorities to vote in 2016.

The Democrats are in big trouble. That is why the MSM is trying to foment infighting in the Republican party.

Like Linda, Kasich likes immigration and said “we need to accommodate many of the immigrants who are living in the country illegally. They’ve been God-fearing, hard-working people in many cases.”

Losers going ‘full Willard’ to pave the
way for Mr. RomneyCARE’s return.

Screw the GOP for lying and helping Obola.
