At this point in the 2016 presidential campaign, the noble, elusive stag of political rhetoric is pretty much road kill.
This judgment is unfair to a few candidates — Rick Perry, Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio come to mind — delivering thoughtful speeches. But in portions of the Republican field, the normal limits of civility have been crossed and recrossed in the relentless search for viral attention. Mike Huckabee compared the sitting president to a Nazi prison guard. Ted Cruz accused the Senate majority leader of being a liar. Donald Trump, well, opens his mouth. His opponents are invariably “clowns” and “stupid” and physically ugly. He mocks a war hero and reveals the cellphone number of another candidate.

Is he really going to be giving helicopter rides to kiddos? LMAO!
This Gerson maroon is WAY behind the curve.
Is that the author of this?
It was still mean of you.
Rick Perry, Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio
The candidates of The Cheap Labor Express.
This writer must be an employee as well
The GOP has already failed america, and every other candidate besides Cruz or Trump would make a shitty president. We have nothing to lose, and its actually a strong position to be in, as we have already lost our country. Its still probably to late for the US though. This is the establishment trying to use psychological warfare on people they think will vote for a threat to the status quo. These people are the cancer inside America, GOP and DEM alike.
The GOP is already a failure with McSellout and Boner leading the charge so even Trump would be an improvement.
Yes
The GOP is a failed party.
Must be a smart fellow, Sid Blumenthal haircut, glasses and a David Gregory lavender tie.
Another evil liberal who wants us to be polite and civil as he and his ilk enslave us all.
Ya know what’s interesting to me, is so many males in D.C. pro-politicos as well as the MSM boys appear to be little boys in adult sized bodies.
I see this over and over.
This is just bizarre from my perspective.
Whatever would the GOP do without the help of the NAZI Democrats watching out for our best interests?
America led by obama and his enablers will fail

To be a male journ-0-list these days, I suspect that is part of the job description.
I love that all the libs are soooo concerned about the GOP.
