Fiorina took one step forward and TWO steps back.

WHY would you say or support ANYONE other than yourself?

I don’t think he is vulgar though it is not my style to attack people I disagree with that is a flaw I can overlook as there are so many more important issues at stake.

Did Ronald Reagan ever have to resort to referring to a woman’s menstrual cycle?

I'm not aware of anyone having done so.

Are you trying to imply Trump did that?

Lighten up, Francine. Take a Midol.

Carly just took herself out of the running with that. It’s no wonder she was in the loser debate group.

I’ll take a non PC President who inadvertently offends those who are waiting to be offended over some polished, practiced, slick talking product of the GOPe any damn day.

You can be safe from offending words while your country and freedom goes away. I’ll take the “vulgar” language if it means avoiding tyranny at the hand of the Uniparty.

any female politician that gets offended by remarks made by any opponent shouldn't be in the game. Put on your big girl panties and ignore ignorance or come up with a remark that will shut them down.. Lets not go boo hoo every time someone makes a stupid remark.

Too bad I’m past the point of menses so your insult is useless.

Not imply Trump did that. Stating as a fact that he.

Those of you who deny it are welcome to your opinions, but what matters is that those who aren’t twisting themselves in to knot deny it think that he did.

He is not a statesman, and we desperately need statesman to save the Republic.

I agree with 95% of what you have said, but the comment was still stupid, for one main reason:

He put a bullet into the guns that are aimed at him. He should have stopped after the 'eyes' comment and he would have been fine.

Let's rephrase what he said, but a apply it to a man:

"Wallace is shooting off at the mouth, shooting off from the whatever."

That is a very comparable analogy and one that would have been inappropriate.

I do like much of what Trump is saying, in terms of focusing on key issues, but his 'blood' comment did nothing to advance that.

back in the 50’s men treated women with more respect than they do today....thank you you feminist jack ass’s...And many things were not for mixed company... Many females don’t get respect because they don’t deserve it...

This helps Carla—it will make her VP (because she is a woman) But not enough to secure a victory over Hillary. the Debate between castro-and her (for VP) will be one where she will be labeled a rich— out of touch—Female Mitt Romney.

To imply that by insulting ONE woman he has insulted them all is ridiculous.

You want to be “respected” as a class, simply by virtue of birth?

Sorry, sweetie. Respect is earned, never given.

Oh, I suppose we’ll refrain from kicking your butts when you cross
the line but don’t expect universal deference just because of your plumbing.

"Women understood that comment. And yes, it is offensive,"

Only women that try WAY too hard to be offended Carly. Time to shut up, you were looking good for a few minutes there.

If we have no candidates who can be statesmen and not be part of the unipaery, then we are “screwed.”

that woman doesn’t deserve any respect with pictures like that....she should be a slut or a serious female. Cannot be both...she uses her body to get noticed and cries unfair when she is treated like less than a serious female.

Bingo!

Or to quote Prince Rilian speaking to Puddleglum, in C.S. Lewis' The Silver Chair (from The Chronicles of Narnia):

"Hast hit it, friend Wiggle."

I think he meant it as a slur on menstruation and figured he was just being tacky....to make a big deal out of it gave it more importance than it deserved

Society has changed since Reagan, and the fact is, since the ruling Uniparty has long since gone to the gutter, that is where they have to be fought.

So we’re fighting them with the lowest possible denominator?

We’re going to lose - for sure.
