that's how primaries work, that's how political parties work, and that's why Hillary will win

TS: "Jews seem to want to vote for Bernie Sanders, why are they so foolishly voting against their community's best interest" vs "Black people seem to want to vote for Hillary Clinton, why are they so foolishly voting against their community's best interest"

first i was amused when TPM described rubio's 3 or 4 point drop in the NH polls following Dispelgate with screaming headlines of RUBIO COLLAPSES IN NH!!!11!

then there was the little note late last night suggesting that rubio's campaign for president is effectively over.

now, it turns out that http://talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/rubio-s-whole-career-probably-ended-last-night

Karl Malone, Wednesday, 10 February 2016 17:41 (eight years ago) link

I want to repost RubioDrinksWater.mov again because it's not clear to me that his political career had anywhere to go after that.

its subtle brume (DJP), Wednesday, 10 February 2016 17:44 (eight years ago) link

Jeb!'s campaign has prompted me to consider whether his parents more or less coerced him through his entire political career. Like, did he maybe just dream of opening a baseball card store or something and have the misfortune of being born a Bush?

it still boggles my mind that this primary season has made me at times feel sorry for the architect of the Terry Schiavo fiasco

“They are not just gangs of kids anymore,” she said. “They are often the kinds of kids that are called ‘super-predators.’ No conscience, no empathy. We can talk about why they ended up that way, but first we have to bring them to heel.

maybe by using evidence, eephus, i dunno

KM i can no longer read TPM without thinking of that josh marshall-style post you did on one of these threads

marcos, Wednesday, 10 February 2016 17:49 (eight years ago) link

me and josh marshall are in a fight (that he doesn't even acknowledge!) because i've sent in like 8-10 reader tips/comments over the years, and i've never received a response despite making many excellent points

it's amazing to me that christie's only material achievement in this race as been to cut marco rubio's hamstrings and hand trump and even bigger margin in NH.
