Always said he got set up.

He's susceptible to being set up again by big boobs. No, we don't want him or Romney or anyone mentioned. If any of the rumors are true, Trump is filling up the swamp instead of draining it.

Jeb has been thrown into the dustbin of history. Enough of the Bushes and the Skull and Bones secret bullshit from Yale.
You want to discuss a bad gang, check the Kennedy killing in Dallas.

“Didn’t he serve overseas somewhere?”

That would be Vietnam, with “dis/honorable service,” a few Purple Hearts, and the disgusted disdain of all who were witnesses to his treachery.

At this point it might be more efficient to list who is NOT in the running.. Also, for all this talk about the high value of loyalty, how is it that Rudy, who publicly announced thats what he wants and who was loyal to a fault, is now being embarrassed in public by someone who did everything possible to bring down the campaign ?

A traitor like Petraeus should no more be SoS than Romney.

What a great idea - give consideration to/hire the guy who illegally hands over classified info to his mistress.

Well the LSM cannot complain!
