Thanks, good info.

That picture?

Three stooges that will vote for Hilliary because she has a...well because there are rumors she is a woman.

But so is Bruce Jenner.

That picture?

Three people that brought us Obama as president.
Because he’s black.

Looks like it will happen again if Hilliary actually is the candidate.

Zotted because I think having both houses out of Democrat control is a step forward.

You clearly aren't paying attention.

Are you saying it is better for Democrats to hold the Senate?

Thus far, there's been no difference, so I'm saying it really don't matter. If you had been paying attention since the 2014 election, you'd understand, and wouldn't need to ask moronic questions.

Not really.

I agree.

Cruz West would be great.

Cruz Walker as well.

Even Walker Cruz, or Walker West.

I thought you might be one of those calling Walker GOPe.

Glad to see you’re not.

Thanks.

I don’t agree but understand how people can think that.

I think that your view is not a political view.

Politics is cheap and dirty.

In a broader context, outside of politics, your idea that it doesn’t make a difference is more true. For example the character of our citizenry is more important and a difference maker.

It often seems there is not any freedom left to conserve.
I think in GOPe circles “conservative” means conserving your place at the trough.

I hear that, but his record is real.

I remember the recall and demonstrations.

And I remember how Sarah Palin went to Wisconsin and stood with him and by him and made a great speech.

And Walker defeated all that corrupt liberal establishment could throw at him.

And he won and after he won he has changed the laws that were robbing the people of Wisconsin blind and bankrupting the State.

It’s pretty amazing. And he did it all with no help from GOPe as far as I know.

It would seem to be that Cruz as President maybe Walker should be Senate Majority leader.

My personal issue is the GOP talks the talk during elections and then ignores the values when they get elected. Fool me several dozen times and it gets to be shame on me. Case in point the Pacific Trade agreement. Who’s side are the R-clowns on?

It’s come to the point that I will not participate in the charade any longer. I’d rather not vote than vote for what they used to stand for.

“My personal issue is the GOP talks the talk during elections and then ignores the values when they get elected.”

True.

It is both a fraud and or failure on their part, but also part and parcel of politics.

Politics is dirty and low.
