It kinda makes sense that the ugliest tie in existence is a confederate flag tie.
He was involved with that racist CPAC thing today.
He gets to come to CPAC but Chris Christie doesn't. Please proceed, GOP. Please proceed

They didn't care about the polls in 2012 either and look where that got them.

Obama doesn't understand America. Obama doesn't believe in free markets. Obama believes no businessman is responsible for his own success. Obama doesn't believe America is exceptional. Obama is endangering our national security. Obama doesn't respect the rich. Obama doesn't believe in personal responsibility. Obama is lazy. Obama isn't intelligent or smart.
Am I dreaming or are those personal attacks that were thrown at Obama during the 2012 election.
That poor man's Carlson Tucker solved racism!

It's better for Christie in the long run. Going would only have hurt him in Jersey and among moderates. That said CPAC has been great for comedy this year.

Considering where we are today . . . what the fuck happened in 2010?
I guess that was during the phase where Obama was the evil guy who is going to indoctrinate your kid into communism when he talks to the schools? How have things changed so much since then?
I guess it was a big wave of digruntled people and an off-year election? I just wonder how much 2014 will be like 2010?

I think the "economy isn't recovering FAST ENOUGH!" mentality sunk in and people didn't care about 2010.
2014 will be nothing like 2010.

Probably no one gave much credibility to the thought that the GOP could reclaim the House, or considered the impact of such a thing. In fact a lot of people were probably okay with it because they like the idea of an opposite party congress keeping the president in check - worked for Clinton
when they weren't trying to impeach him or shut down the government and nothing he accomplished past 1995 actually helped the economy or balanced the budget

2010 was a Hegelian moment. A whole bunch of voters who had never before entertained the idea that they might not always dominate American politics woke up to the realization that they were no longer representative, and freaked out. Also we had the worst recession in like 80 years. It was really a one-of-a-kind event, I think. 2014 will be different. Maybe we'll still lose seats, depending on what happens, but it won't be anything like what happened in 2010.

That was not racist at all. He meant, "Oh, boy."
There's a couple guys in there that set off my gaydar.

This is why I hate to drive in Virginia.
I know a few conservatives who think that this election was lost due to #voterfraud.

This post is more ridiculous than the Ryan budget. Led Zeppelin is the greatest rock band of all time, and only The Beatles really have any grounds to challenge that.

Um unemployment was at 10%? Sure healthcare was unpopular and Obama was spending a lot of money but ultimately the economy determined 2010. And I can't let dumbasses like myself off the hook: ie people who voted for republican candidates for no good reason. Others stayed home because of dispair and disinterest.
I'm going to assume unemployment wont be 10% in 2014, or 9%; that alone will even the playing field a bit. Whether black people, Hispanics, and young people show up is another thing. Gerrymandering will ensure dems don't retake the house though.
Today's auto sales data was pretty damn good btw.

2010 was also a mid-term, the motivated turn out far more. Who was more motivated than the Tea Party and GOP in general?
The whoever, did their part, Obama was elected, the oceans would recede, the planet would heal, problem solved.
Oh, what's that politics is more than just voting for the God King? Fuck that amirite.
If you don't think the Republicans are going after blood in 2014, especially considering how favorable the Senate situation is...
Go back and read the 2009 stories. "We are all socialists now..." remember? Health care, climate change, etc. no problem right? And what happened. A death may have derailed everything. The GOP was supposed to have been in shambles, warring amongst itself.

The worst incidence of mass idiocy in recent U.S. history. Those fuckers have caused so much damage, and I don't think they even realize it.

Curiously, are you referring to the voters or the GOP itself?
As one could theoretically make an argument for both

It's not even that their views are so extreme, it's that they literally don't know how government works. It's like a bunch of nuts that just kept screaming "Obama bad! Less government good!" were voted in and now they're all just running around uncensored.

Question PoliGAF. How would you feel in 2016 if Hillary picked Kirsten Gillibrand for a Cabinet position or, dare I say it, VP?
If the former, where would she best go, if you believe she'd be good for the (potentially) future administration?

I don't like it for my own selfish reasons. I really like the 2-hour format and talking about a topic for more than 5 min. Hopefully he brings the spirit of Up into primetime and not the usual bullshit cable shows.
Yeah, the format of Up was great, and I hope he takes some of that to the new show. My problem with Up is that I rarely get up in time to see it in full.
He's taking the 8pm Ed Show slot too, which i never really liked his show.
CPAC paying off again, a guy talking about religion and how we shouldn't have a separation of church and state. Comparing Obama to Stalin for wanting birth control offered in health insurance policies even if it's a religious institution just to show he has power of them ( screw the people who actually are helped by that)
Also " God decides who is on the right side of history, not the mainstream media"
also talks about how liberals are pretending that the science is settled on marriage so they can push forward their gay marriage agenda.
Dr. Ben Carson is on right now following this guy.

So...Ben Carson is a terrible person, who knew? He gave a hypothetical on how he would destroy this country if he were president and named some bull and then said coincidentally that's what Obama has been doing. Pitting people against eachother, ridiculing people with moral standings, weakening our military ( what crap), and hurting our countries financial stability ( as if that was obama who crashed the economy).
People don't hate black republicans because they are black, its' because they are full of shit and love it, and they are presented like trophies that the republicans won to prove they aren't all white. I dislike Paul Ryan the same as Alan West the same as Ted Cruz. I don't dislike republicans based on race, it's the horrific and downright stupid ideas they share.

Didn't get the memo regarding the 14th Amendment
Uh, no? He said that's been happening for more than the last 4 or 5 years and to not blame any one person for it (referring to Obama).
I didn't catch that part if he said it in a non-winky way. I did hear him say that we should tax poor people because it's insulting for them to be treated like they should have the rich pay their way.
Shrennin
Didn't get the memo regarding the 14th Amendment
He didn't. He was pretty serious when he said it, to make sure he clarified his point that he believes the nation has been on the downward spiral for years.
If he runs for president, the Republicans have found their unbeatable candidate. That's a big if though; right now, I don't think he's planning a presidential run.

Republicans don't have an unbeatable candidate. Hillary Clinton can beat anyone; it's simple demographics.
Shrennin

Except when Obama came along. Dr. Carson is an unusual scenario because he's not a politician and he's well respected. He will be unbeatable if he chooses to run.
Yeah, okay.
Considering nobody knows anything beyond what Dr Carson says about himself, it's really early to be touting unbeatability.

Watch Gifted Hands. Then be surprised at how many people who have seen that movie. He's a famous neurosurgeon for what he did and I wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't any dirt on him whatsoever (beyond what is already known - his temper during his childhood).

Nah. It's not 2008 anymore. As I said, it's simple demographics. No matter what happens with immigration reform, the next Democratic candidate will get AT LEAST 60% of the Hispanic vote. She'll get the vast majority of African Americans. She'll get a larger share of the white vote than Obama. And probably most importantly, she'll get women. Big time. Women vote in larger numbers than men, and women vote Democratic more than Republican. If Hillary runs, women will turn out in historic numbers, and the gender gap will be huge.
