Re: Campaign 2016 - People lie the most after a hunt, during a war or before an elect
Question is whether Hillary's campaign is mortally wounded. The vibe is she just can't move it onward. I still don't know that if Vermont Bernie gets into the finals...that he has a chance to win. His inability to get minorities is a double concern. For those reasons, I don't think its too late for Joe. But the time is now.

Why would her campaign be mortally wounded? E-mail thing is shaping up to be a sham. Regardless of what one feels about her, do you really think she did anything incriminating after 25 years of being under intense scrutiny? I'm guessing probably not. If there was anything to be found, we would have heard about it already.

Watergate was a sham too until they found the smoking gun.
What did Hillary know and when did she know it?

And where's her long form birth certificate?
There's nothing there. If it wasn't yet another political sideshow, they'd be calling in Colin Powell and other former SecState's who did the same thing.

God I remember growing up hearing his show come on every evening in the car. My dad is a liberal but often listened to these shows on AM1500 back with KSTP was an absolute powerhouse. (And I really mean powerhouse with the lineup they had.)
I had no idea he quit. But this is an interesting line:
I went there to see what it was about and I was kind of taken aback:
Oddly enough, another radio talkshow host (Dave Thompson) from the old days of AM1500 has been rumored to be interested but has since denied he's interested.

About what? What's being investigated again?
Interesting you bring up Watergate. Did you know that commission already wrapped up its work in quicker fashion than this Ben Ghazi! one?

The interesting part about Jason Lewis's candidacy is that he's an anti-war conservative who has called for shrinking the defense budget in addition to the overall federal budget. He has a long history of making these comments on his show since he came back from his time in North Carolina, which makes me wonder how well he'd be received in Washington, or if he'd kowtow to party pressure while there.
Dave Thompson is the state senator for my voting district. He has reasonably high approval ratings, last I checked. I think he's happy working in St. Paul.

It depends on what the Clintons do with the initiative now that they have it back. Summer was all about GOP hit squads in the Echo Chamber and Congress trying to bring back both horns and the tail. They certainly succeeded in getting their constituency cranked back up to 11 in Hillary Hatred, but those people were never going to vote for her anyway.
It probably affected her peripherals with lofos, but there's more than a year to the election, so if the "investigations" now shutter not only will any damage be forgotten, but she may wind up stronger for it. The GOP strategy is clearly to just throw everything at the wall, and for them to have been exposed so blatantly and so early as at best fishing, they may have actually shot themselves in the foot. Now, whenever any conservative or media minion is "deeply troubled," it's going to look like gamesmanship unless they can prove otherwise. They've shifted the onus onto themselves by overreaching.
tl; dr: Nothing that happens before February means squat.

Those guys learn quickly that they either tow the party line or they don't get any goodies.
Speaking of which, I wonder if ear marks will make a comeback now that Congress has basically demonstrated it can't be led without them as a carrot/stick for leadership to use on eejits. There are definitely ways the process could be reformed so it wouldn't be simply a matter of log rolling. My wife once explained to me, very patiently, why all the complaining about ear marks was actually completely missing the point, but as with much of her dulcet tones I have somehow misplaced the memory.

He cracks me up. He moved to the Carolina's after *****ing on the radio for years about Minnesota and it's liberal policies. And then he moves back here. And now he wants to be elected so he can change those policies?
Move back to Carolina where you belong.

You mean like Rand Paul? Or Ron Paul. Or any of the many other more libertarian conservatives. They exist. There's just not many.

You act like Minnesota is a rock-solid liberal state.

House knuckledraggers and frankly some USCHO posters don't seem to realize its not 1995 anymore. They don't have the ability to manufacture a scandal and then plant stories for a compliant lamestream media to run with. Not that the media isn't still compliant, but the BS portion of the scandal is exposed long before it hits the maintstream. A similar dynamic is playing out with Planned Parenthood. We've already seen the doctored video trick.
In any investigation, you need to put up or shut up at some point or people lose interest.

He moved back to Minnesota some five or six years ago, got a contract with KTLK to re-start his show here. The contract was bigger than his NC contract, his family is all from Iowa (his side) and Minnesota (wife's side), and the station had an agreement in place to help him move national if his ratings were strong enough. The ratings were strong enough and they so they followed through on the national show. Since he quit radio he's now looking into running in a solidly red district. I wouldn't doubt if he quit last year knowing that Kline wouldn't run again in 2016.

I don't like him and I don't like his incessant whining. His commentary articles in the Star Tribe were incessant whining as well.

Re: Campaign 2016 - People lie the most after a hunt, during a war or before an elect
This looks like fun.
This is a conflict between two terrible humans. DWS I think most people have sussed out is a Clinton apparatchik who is running the DNC with all the ethics and aptitude of Katherine Harris. Gabbard is the stupidest Member of Congress. Let that sink in for a moment. She's also completely nuts -- what if Tracy Flick belonged to a radical Hari Krishna minority sect so bizarre the main HKs kicked them out (let that sink in...) and had a wealthy Republican father who bankrolled her to a Democratic House seat.
I look forward to this destroying both their careers.
