Dan Quayle was given a card with “Potatoe” written on it. The card was wrong (or at least non-standatd).

The media cut him no slack.

—yep—I saw that—wonder if CNN has managed to eliminate all evidence of that—?

I only recently learned that interesting fact about the potato incident with Dan Quayle. I would have gone with what the card said too! And potatoes is plural for potato, so it can be easy to confuse. The media utterly destroyed him with that simple little gaff.

This is why Trump is it, he can break through all that, and has multiple times. Cruz will eventually make some remark and get ‘potatoed’ or get the ‘binders full of women’ treatment. I love Cruz but he would not be able to pull out of it, its only a matter of time.
