Marco Rubio is biggest loser. Trump and the governors all have a good night in NH

I watched that thing, and it was terrible.

I’m sure FReepers would want to see it, but the writing was poor and the person they had playing the part was just bland.

I’m not a Cruz fan, but they really missed it on this one.

Thank you for the link.

My lightbulb took forever to go off. Even when others told me there was something they didn’t trust about Cruz. Now, I knew Huck was a big phony, but I didn’t get it about Cruz for a very long time.

[Yaelle]

Giamotti will play the quirky “strange” characters. Yeah, he would play Cruz out of that group. It just struck me as funny.

Oh, that’s priceless. Trump? “low self esteem”?!

Ha. Neither of is likely a psychologist or psychiatrist. Even if you are it seems unlikely that you have had the opportunity to personally interview him in order to evaluate him for possible character/personality defects or abnormalities such as low self esteem.

That said, he always talks in superlatives, makes amazing claims about what he'll do, (gonna move to Iowa and buy me a farm - gonna bomb ISIS back into the stone age- I'll get illegal gangs out of here it'll make your head spin), attacks people stupidly and flips when it looks like it might hurt his brand (just look at that face...who could vote for her...Carley is beautiful ) and so on.

In my experience people who act like that have low self esteem, but having conceded that I'm not qualified to make such a determination, I'll just say he's a grandiose bull$h1tter.

Don’t feel bad I was hot for Teddy in the beginning also. When he started voting sideways I had to take a step back and punt.

Trump all the way ... without him we will lose ...

[John Valentine]

Maybe you will will lose if Trump loses, but everyone else will win.

[Neu Pragmatist]

How so ?

[John Valentine]

We’ll have an unhinged, narcissitic, power-drunk authoritarian jerk in the White House.

Again.

“So let me see if I hear you clearly; A candidate that has a deeper knowledge of the issues is the favorite of shallow people? That sounds quite odd.”

Only if knowledge is your most important criterion. As I said in my previous post, knowledge can be acquired; character can only be improved over a long period of time.

“It seems to me that one would want a good character candidate with a deeper and more thorough knowledge of the issues. But you don’t want that.”

Anyone would *want* it. The problem is, you can’t have it. Not no how, not no way.

You’re stuck with a choice between a weak man of doubtful character, or Trump.

When the wolf is at the door, you want a strong man. Niceties such as a familiarity with the slang of Beltway insiders lose significance. We know for a fact that none of the other candidates will do a bleeding thing to save us; Trump might. He’s not just our best bet; he’s our *only* bet.

Every other door has a thousand rabid rattlesnakes behind it. We don’t know for sure what is behind the door marked “Trump,” but it might be better than a thousand rabid rattlesnakes.

I thought you said you turned it to CNN after a short time?

[WVNan]

Yes, that’s the guy. I plan to seek a way to watch more of his videos. I had to go to sleep before he finished.

I’m sure Bourdain is a lib but he is a very large-living, interesting person. They should use him in Dos Equis beer commercials.
