George Will: Candidate Trump Will Soon Become One of the ‘Losers’ He Constantly Mocks
National Review ^ | 09/28/2015 | George Will

Posted on 09/28/2015 7:09:12 AM PDT by SeekAndFind

America’s loopy Left is enamored of someone who becomes cranky about bobblehead figurines. Sober Democrats are queasy about nominating Hillary Clinton, who has much to apologize for but no aptitude for apologies. Those Republicans who hope she is denied the nomination are perhaps imprudent. And even Republicans who recoil from Donald Trump’s repulsiveness might want to defer the delicious pleasure of witnessing his apoplexy when he joins, as surely he will, the ranks of those he most despises — “losers.”

In 2011, Bernie Sanders said “we’ve got some very, very serious problems” because the Founding Fathers bobbleheads sold at the Smithsonian Museum of American History were made in China. He exclaimed: “A museum owned by the people of America — a museum which talks about our own history — cannot even have products manufactured in the United States by American workers?” In a hilarious video assembled by the high-spirited folks at Reason.TV, Sanders summons Smithsonian officials to his office to grovel and promise to mend their ways. Sanders’ wrath did not produce a complete purge: The museum still sells imported gimcracks.

Clinton, who could lose to Sanders, might actually think she apologized concerning her private e-mail server. What she said (really: parse her ABC interview) was that she should have been clearer and quicker in explaining why she has nothing to apologize for. Joe Biden may be one of those knickknacks that look better in the store window than in your living room, but he probably would be a stronger nominee than Clinton, whose campaign operatives believe, oxymoronically, that she should adopt a policy of spontaneity. Some operatives thought it shrewd to share this calculation with the New York Times, which headlined its scoop “Hillary Clinton to Show More Humor and Heart, Aides Say.”

Look at stupid sites like “MoveOn.org” they make MILLIONS - You would think the most powerful FREEDOM loving site would be able to...

Bad comparison.
"MoveOn.org" is financed by Obungo and the taxpayer's unlimited checkbook... plus Soros

George Will, will still be mumbling this $hit 6 months from now.

Another "inside the beltway" idiot who has nary a clue.

Sometimes "looser" is right.

Like when Groucho Marx was talking about elephants and remarked that in Alabama, the tusks are looser.

I reverse engineered FR a dozen or so years ago. That code must be around here somewhere. I’ll look for it. But even if I can’t find it, it would only take a few weeks to code it up all over again. I’m pretty sure John would keep FR running.

I’ll play, I was a NASA programmer (C, Java) before I retired, so I really can help if needed.
