In 2012, then-Rep. Todd Akin (R-Mo.) took a winnable Senate race and turned it into a debacle for the whole party. His comments on rape were front and center at the Democratic National Convention. One news cycle after another was devoted to his ignorant remarks. He lived up to the cartoon portrait of a clueless misogynist and made the party once again seem like the party of rich, old white guys who cannot relate to modern America.
In the 2016 election, Donald Trump appears on the scene popping off about immigrants and spewing nasty rhetoric. It was enough to cause NBC to break its ties with him, and the network will not air either “The Apprentice” or the Miss USA and Miss Universe pageants:
The network, which has been under pressure to fire Trump since last week when Univision announced it would not air Trump’s Miss USA pageant in Spanish, said in a statement that “respect and dignity for all people are cornerstones of our values.”

That Jennifer Rubin really has her finger on the pulse of the average republican voter, she does.
They all work for The Cheap Labor Express and they have been paid to support only amnesty candidates. Bush and Rubberio mostly.
And who is Jennifer Rubin?????
Especially the ones she talks to at those swanky cocktail parties and soirées.
Akin was probably closer to winning than losers McCain and Romney. But the political class is never responsible for losses. In fact, they don’t even care.
Don’t forget Krauthammer and Rove.
Whatta _itch!
She’s got her finger up her own rectum, if you’ll pardon my imagery.
It’s an measure of the thickness of the bubble around the DC swamp that the Post would call Rubin’s blog Right anything.
She has the long knives out for any and all in the GOP every single day.
Jennifer Rubin is an American neoconservative columnist and a blogger for The Washington Post. Previously she worked at Commentary, PJ Media, Human Events, and The Weekly Standard. She also published at Politico, The New York Post, New York Daily News, National Review, The Jerusalem Post, and a variety of other media publications.

Better than being a Clay Aiken Democrat.
You’re the reason I just tried to gouge out my eyes with a rusty melon scoop. I hope you’re happy.
Dude, didn’t you just last week give me grief over posting Jennifer Rubin? lol!
Bet she has hair in those arm pits.... and her ears.
And her picture too?!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I love to demonstrate the insularity of the Beltway/Manhattan GOPe with her columns every now and again. You were using her for your own ends. See the difference?
She needs her eye brows threaded and a new hair stylist.
But, unlike you who could not apparently move on I will.
Later.
