And Trump is going to be very disciplined in his attack?

Absolutely not. I was just pointing out that Americans might have cared about the attack, but Romney messed his chance up completely.

The problem with Obama is he's just too good.
Maybe Trump had this idea if his VP took care of governing he could make phone calls and speeches that set a strong tone. Like a figurehead head of state.

Republicans lose pretty comfortably on immigration, abortion, gun control, and even free trade (lol).

He has said stuff before about acting as a Chairman with the VP in the CEO/COO day-to-day role. It really does feel like he wants to be president just to satisfy a need for validation and praise rather than to do anything specific.

This just gave me a pretty good feeling. Really the economy just needs to keep rolling along as it seems like the only thing that could ignite a major backlash.
That's pretty much how he runs his businesses. He's pretty much a name and figure head on a lot of the things that have his name on it. It's not him running anything. The stuff he tries to manage directly goes out of business.

I would blame Obama for the roasting he gave Trump at that White House Correspondents Dinner.
For such a egomaniac, that must've hurt.
So PA will remain blue by that logic.

Rmoney got a 5 point bounce in the IPSOS poll after his convention. Because of how the poll is run, it's always going to be more noisy than a traditional non-tracking poll.
But, Diablos, brah, I got you covered.

I mean, this trust fund Forbes baby count chocula lookin mother fucker:
suggested that poor people should have a choice about where to send their kids to school and that K-12 should be privatized and left to the free market.
So no more complaining about 'no policy ideas', GAF.

Benghazi only was an issue because it happened in an election cycle and the optics were ripe for exploiting. Romney couldn't have waited, because it would have become a non story very quickly.
No, I've noticed that too. It's almost become tolerable enough for me to go back to browsing.

That NYT quote is so... Trumpian.
Also I had no idea there was a Tiffany Trump until like a few days ago.
Also FEC filings are meant to be released today I think, so uh... will they show some sort of formal debt forgiveness?

Obama is just the country's absent black father in Republican America. If only he was around, no bad things would ever happen.

Does he though? Does anyone think that the Melania stuff is good press? It's probably one of the worst things to happen to his campaign the entire cycle.
And the email point is just plain wrong.
It's keeping them off message because the media is on that instead of the rest of the convention. This is free good press week for the GOP and this speech blew it.
And yeah. The email point is pure bullshit.
It definitely flipped on its usual bits with the RNC.
Mostly due to just how batshit crazy everything is.
Hell even Twitch was weirded the fuck out during that Benghazi story by the two guys when they started to revel in killing dudes.
This whole thing is like one big depressing circus act where everything is awful and life is horrible for everyone.

They're realizing how much of a danger the GOP really is. The start of the RNC is the real beginning of the Democrat vs. Republican Presidential Election. They may not love Hillary--I don't either tbh--but she's a metric fuckton better than Trump, and the SCOTUS is too important to hand over to the GOP with their xenophobic, racist, regressive mentality. They will come around after the DNC, and when Hillary picks a more lovable person for VP than the cardboard cut-out that is Mike Pence.

Must feel bad when the media systematically and routinely shits on your spouse.

I mean Clinton is coming off her worse news week of her entire cycle. She will be back and handily above Trump after her VP pick and the DNC. If she isn't, then I will start worrying. Even then you have to remember she just has to win Florida, New Hampshire, and Pennsylvania to get to 270. She could lose in the popular vote and still win via EV.

yea fair enough, there really isn't anything else bad that can hit her from here.
Hell, given how the media jumped up and down on her head during Bill's time in office she probably finds this hilarious.
Plagiarism-gate is fun and all but I wish people were more focused on the blatant White supremacy and the encouragement of putting Hillary through a kangaroo court.

People already knew Steve King was a piece of shit and Chris Christie was a nutter. The biggest theme they have on Clinton is that she's seen as dishonest. They sent the would-be First Lady out there and handed her a PLAGIARIZED speech, that she said she wrote. That's a huge blow to the 1 card they had. They can't win on policy, so they basically shot themselves in the foot on day 1.
