So about that first Democratic Debate tonight..

Yea, Hillary’s trial will be the same day as Dick Cheney’s.

How exactly does Dick Cheney affect the race for the democratic party nomination?

Im just stating that those 2 things have about the same likelyhood of happening aka there is no chance in hell they happen.

I expect the Benghazi commission to now shift focus to Biden seeing as they couldn’t find anything on Hillary.

Why would Biden bother to enter the race at this point if he didn’t believe something was coming down the pike that will cause Hillary to withdraw?

The Benghazi commission is irrelevant. Doesn’t matter what they “find”, no one cares. The FBI investigation, however, is very relevant. Believe whatever you’d like about Hillary, but a recommendation by the FBI that she be charged with criminal violations of the Espionage Act would be a big deal.

IF such a recommendation appears…

someone make a voodoo doll and put some black magic to work that the FBI will indict her

biden is all in officialy

Because he’s an idiot. There’s no way he’ll win (sorry Biden, just being realistic).

I think Biden knows that this is his last chance to run before he is either dead or too old to be a real contender.

Even if he thinks he’s not likely to win, I suspect he would not be able forgive himself for not at least taking the shot, and I think his family understands that and is behind him, too.

I, for one, am a Biden fan, and I was in 2008 as well. I think he has a decent shot at the nomination even if he’s not the most likely choice. 24% of democratic voters supporting Biden isn’t bad for a poll conducted while the guy isn’t even officially running.

Biden is good for those who don’t want to keep this Clinton/Bush dynasty thing going, don’t like the teflon triangulation style of the Clintons, and are worried that Bernie Sanders won’t have enough support in Congress or is otherwise too far left to be electable. Democrats who are basically Obama supporters but frustrated at Obama’s general wimpiness vis-a-vis the Republicans will like that Biden is much more of a fighter.

I think his chances of winning the primaries are probably less than 50% but better than 1 in 3. In the general election, it depends on who the Republican nominee is, whether Trump is running as an Independent if not the Republican nominee, and who the running mate is.

The thing is, voters are irrational emotional beings. Does Biden project any personality at all on camera? Any sense of humor? He’s so drone-like, Clinton and Sanders have pizazz.

Biden has been muzzled. Remember all that stuff about Biden Gaffes. Part of his job as VP has been to keep quiet. This is why you haven’t seen his personality if you haven’t seen him before 2008. Give him a few months on the campaign trail and I think you’ll change your mind about whether he has personality or not.

People make fun of Biden’s gaffes, but most of the time it’s just him either being distracted by something or letting his true feelings out on something. They’ve been perhaps a little embarrasing or awkward, but none of them have been anything truly creepy like Romney’s 47% remark.

It’s certainly an IF at this point and they might conclude their investigation and determine that she should not be prosecuted. An FBI investigation is a big deal though, not some politically-driven committee put together by nobody congressmen. You can certainly agree with that can’t you?

Only if she’s formally indicted, a just the existence of an investigation won’t sink her.

With all the talk about making wall street offenses criminal, they should do the same with politics… They should fix the laws to make it a felony for the opposing party to pester people about stupid stuff like what email you used, or who gave you a blow job. Also start sending members of congress to prison for not doing their job. Too much incompetence and laziness, people need to be whipped into shape.

Trump + Carson ticket???

I’d be nice if at least one person on the ticket had some idea of how government works.

I mean, I dislike politicians and all, but sending those two to the capital would be a massive clusterfuck.

trump is leading but carson right behind him…surprisingly, bush is not as hot as i expected. if trump gets elected, i am moving to toronto. Front Street here I come!!!

i almost want to vote trump just to watch the chaos that follows lol

the US will be like the land of the hate from dems
