I hadn’t heard that about Moore, only questions about him not being a PhD economist. I remember hearing from Kudlow’s show when Moore was looking for, and then found, a new wife, however.

This is proof that all democrats hate black people

...

Bringing his name up could have been a political tactic. He was never nominated.

Only two of the current five governors had economics doctorates. The other three are lawyers. A background in banking is helpful, probably expected, but an economics degree isn't a requirement.

Some bimbo came forward and said that she was going to file charges against him for (real or imagined) sexual harassment unless he withdrew from the nomination. I think he wanted to spare Trump the embarrassment that would no doubt come from the resulting clown-show.

By submitting to these games by the scumbags, we train them in how to defeat us.

It makes sense in face of reality.

They don’t want to fight trying to go through the confirmation process, and ultimately the senate won’t confirm.

What happened? A platoon of lying whores formed on the horizon like Wallaces’s army in Braveheart, waiting to charge down the hill and give him the Clarence Thomas/Kavanaugh treatment.

He looked out the window in his nice house and said “Good luck America. I’m doing just fine and can live out my life in pleasure and comfort. I’ll watch on TV as you surf out what remains of America’s wave.”

Tragic. He would have been a good one.

A wise move on Cain's part... At his age he has nothing to prove and does not need the countless attacks from DIM JACKALS and RINOS! I wish him well!!

It doesn’t matter if Trump hangs tough. The Republican party killed this, not the dems. This could and should sail through the Senate in an afternoon. The dems could literally do nothing to stop it.
Pelosi and the House are completely out of the loop. The courts are completely out of the loop.

This is 100% at the feet of the GOP Senate.

(But remember kids, always vote republican or the nasty democrats will get into power)

That doesn’t mean they weren’t squawking.

Just like they did about Kudlow.

Moore’s a bit of a dork, and he was more obstinate than Larry, coming around more slowly on Trump—and I’m not even sure if he’s yet legitimately come around on illegal immigration.

I read “Operation Overflight” By Gary Powers who got shot down in the U-2 over Russia. He said he was amazed at how much the KGB did not know about America. At one point the Russian interrogator asked him to explain the difference between the Republican and Democrat parties.
To his chagrin, he could not really find a way to explain the difference because they were basically the same even then.

The GOP Senate in this case is another example.

WHen do you ever hear Hillary described as a two-time failed candidate for the White House?

“Why do they have to put ‘failed’ in there? It isn’t necessary.”
________________________________________________________

It’s what media RATS do.

You’ll NEVER see or hear them call Hillary Clinton or John Kerry “failed” presidential candidates.

After GOP hopeful and good guy Antonio Sobato, Jr. tried to get elected to Congress last November in Ventura, California, Wikipedia called him a “failed candidate and a former underwear model.”

“I hadn’t heard that about Moore, only questions about him not being a PhD economist”

Just watched a speech by Milton Friedman where he pointed something out about the Fed. He says as far back as you can look, during good times the Fed explains how their policies have resulted in the good economy. When the economy is tanking, the Fed explains how despite their best efforts they were stymied by other factors.

For extra credit, I would love to know the percentage of PhD economists that become wealthy. I mean...they know ALL about economics, right? A broke economist is like a doctor with diabetes, bad teeth, and a constant sinus infection.
It’s an indication that you are a dumbass.

Very true about PhD economists. The one thing to stay as far away from as possible with them is any stock market advice!

Last week Cain said there was no way he’s withdrawing his name for consideration for nomination. So what happened?


Cain is a media savvy political outsider and a strong ally of POTUS. There was no way the Uniparty was ever going to allow him a Senate confirmed role in the Trump admin.

Democrats? His confirmation was sunk by GOP senators signalling they would not vote to confirm him.
