[Albion Wilde]

No she was a Romney before her marriage..

You're correct -- looked it up. She is the daughter of Mitt's brother. I was confused because her mother divorced her father, so her stepfather's name (Stern) stuck in my mind.

[MS.BEHAVIN]

Ted Cruz not speaking tonight?

[maggief]

[exit82]

Is that a Trump tie, Paul?

[RKBA Democrat]

This one is up for election this year. He’s vulnerable. As Chuck Colson famously said:’when you’ve got them by the balls, their hearts and minds will follow.”

Let’s watch and see if this pig can sing opera. Doubtful. But those end of political life moments can miraculously focus the mind.

[Freedom56v2]

This all rings very hollow from GOPE

[Pravious]

Ryan shouldn’t try and make jokes. Every one of them is truly falling as flat as a pancake.

[bigbob]

Agree, Reince “got it”, and from his comments maybe Mitch will “get it” too, once there’s a new boss in the House.

Better the Turdle than a return to Dingy Harry, for sure.

[SelmaLee]

HEAR HEAR!

No FUD allowed from this point onward.

[freepersup]

Thank you for the birthday greeting. I know my family- and I know my freeper family too. One is solid like gold- one is a head scratcher... off to the Chinese buffet. lol

[KittenClaws]

Mitch and Ryan. Politicians.

[SamAdams76]

Tomorrow night will be Ted Cruz. He’ll have Eric Trump waiting in the wings so he better not try anything funny!

[Political Junkie Too]

The question is, do you put the Vichy government back in power after the resistance ousts the occupiers because they did the best they could under the occupation, or do you condemn them for not resisting like the rest of us and replace them with the next generation who grew up under the tyranny?

-PJ

[STARLIT]

His poll numbers must be in the toilet!

I don't believe for one minute he's backing Donald or Mike. He is trying to "Snow Job this crowd and his state".

[maggief]

Ryan is paving his own road to 2020.

[MS.BEHAVIN]

LOL
No, he’d better not!

[Jane Long]

Or, from his new lobbyist office.

I can’t stand this putz.

[Tuxedo]

Ryan having a decent speech here. Too bad he has passed his moment.

[ROCKLOBSTER]

What about the factory worker? Why are they always targeted for destruction?

Because they've been replaced by robots.

[Jamestown1630]

Love CSpan, but can’t get it through Roku. I’m pretty happy with OAN - very little commentary-interruption tonight, and we see it all, if a little late.
