The disconnect between Washington GOP and those outside "The Beltway"..

One man's opinion.

And a crappy opinion, at that. Glenn Beck, Grover Norquist, Rush Limbaugh, Matt Drudge, and the host of other Fox News personalities count as center-right? Yeah, sure, and Rachel Maddow is merely center-left. :rolleyes:

Thanks for reminding why I never open townhall.com links, though. Always good to get the once per year refresher.

Cruz isn't crazy, he's the opposite: an opportunist without principles. A Cruz presidency would be sad, not apocalyptic.

Interesting. I'd always figured him for someone who believed at least some of the stuff he spouts.

I'm guessing. His father clearly believes fervently in all sorts of bizarre and inane weirdness, but I think Li'l Ted is just a ruthless, spring-loaded, ambition machine, Duddy Kravitz crossed with Tucker Carlson.

Sometimes people are who they say they are. I think Cruz is nuts, just like I think Ron Paul knew he was making his fortune over publishing Klan articles in his "newsletter". :rolleyes:

Could our good fiend V. V. Putin be elected in this country if he was of the right party in the right state? For example D in Maryland or an R in Mississippi?

"He's a Christian man who gets things done!" Would be the slogan. That he's corrupt as heck works well in both states.

How about "he opposes President Obama"! That ought to get him elected at least in Tennessee, where ConservaPerv congressman Scott DesJarlais is about to get re-elected despite having his mistress get an abortion, or South Carolina with Mark Sanford...or better yet Louisiana with Senator David "Diapers" Vitter. :D

And he has that key quality: executive experience. He has more than the candidate for either party will be able to boast.

Drama queens, the old man's hands were spread far too much apart in order for that to be a choking move. Whatever that confrontation was, and without both audio and visual leading up to it, we have no idea what was going on there, exactly.

Right. He was clearly hugging the kid.

Clearly it was an aggressive act, but it wasn't a choke. Are your hands going to be spread so wide when you have to choke a person by grasping around the neck? It wasn't a choking attempt, that's all I'm saying.

Nice Photoshop blur job on the photo. Pretty good job of riling up the herp-a-derps on both sides of the fence, that's for sure.

Keep 'em divided and keep 'em angry at each other - exactly what the terrorists want.

It's Florida, be glad he didn't he just shoot the kid. "I feel threatened by our respective demographic trends!"

What the average person thinks about today's political devisiveness as they go through life:

They don't notice it
They notice it and think its just weird
Then they get angry
Then they try to convince others of the 'truth'
Then they get tired of it
Then if everything goes well...they ignore it just before they die

Kep, sorry to do this to you, ;) but this analysis throws cold water on the Rand Paul libertarianism will attract young voters.

http://www.centerforpolitics.org/cr...ans-wont-help-republicans-win-the-youth-vote/

You kidding? To me this is great news. I'm very surprised by it, but I spend so much time around the minarchist idiocracy it's probably skewing my perceptions.

In a related story, Libertarianism remains the leading political ideology for affluent white male college virgins, and Ringworld is still awesome*.

(* Ringworld is still awesome, even if 90% of the people who love it should be permanently relocated to Somalia.)

Hey check this out! Poll shows that GOP is made up of dinosaurs in public's mind!

http://www.politico.com/story/2014/08/gop-poll-of-women-party-stuck-in-past-110398.html?hp=f1

Oh and before somebody (huskyfan) tries to "unskew" the polls, this is a Republican party commissioned survey. Spin away....

My favorite part of their recommendations to the RNC is this:

It also found that Republicans “fail to speak to women in the different circumstances in which they live” — as breadwinners, for example. “This lack of understanding and acknowledgment closes many minds to Republican policy solutions,” the report says. The groups urge Republicans to embrace policies that “are not easily framed as driven by a desire to aid employers or ‘the rich.’”

In other words, by all means go on backing policies that only benefit the rich, but for goodness' sake be covert about it!

Here at Rover Nation we're a bit skeptical about offering Kepler membership into our cult, I mean organization. He's a bit of a Paulite but after his latest post his application might be looked at a little more favorably. ;)
