Your 2016 Presidential Candidate Speculation Thread

yikes. don't really care about the rand paul yelling at reporters "story" that will be forgotten about in approximately 3 days, but lol at his responsee:

Paul told Kelly that "interviews are difficult"

"...I do lose my cool"

"...I’d rather do 30 minutes with Charlie Rose, laid back in a lazy boy chair."

...Paul said that he doesn't believe people want a president who will "roll over and take it."

...Paul said that he may be thin-skinned, but that he responds to male and female reporters in the same manner.

also i fully support the nickname of "teste" for rand paul

rand ball more like amirite

"I think I've been universally short tempered and testy with both male and female reporters. I'll own up to that," he said.

If you point out how he has changed his views on certain subjects, and ask him to explain that, he calls that a reporter "editorializing". He used that word on the Today show with Guthrie and in the CNN interview. He is being consistent with that defense...

man I dunno about the rest of you but if Cruz really already has $31 million this is gonna be *real* entertaining

and he doesn't spend a dime on hair care

Cruz's various million dollar pacs according to a Bloomberg Politics article

Each of the super-PACs—Keep the Promise and three “sub-super-PACs” dubbed Keep the Promise I, Keep the Promise II and Keep the Promise III—will be controlled by a different donor family, and will likely develop different specialities, such as data mining, television advertising and polling, the strategist said.

Keep the Promise IV-Dissing Fellow Candidates; Keep the Promise V-Insulting Mainstream Liberal Media

this is an oldie, but what in the actual fuck

he didn't think Obama's views on marriage could "get any gayer"

Lol @ randy accepting bitcoin. Hope he gets nailed for accepting drug money or something

Lincoln Chafee goes exploring

I want to watch a late in the first term rand paul press conference in the white house where he just swears at reporters and challenges a couple to fisticuffs

‏@ZekeJMiller
Huckabee hits Obama for “Using his precious time in the Oval Office to call people up to congratulate them for being gay”

So glad Huckabee quit his Fox tv show to eventually not run for president.

the idea of obama calling people up to congratulate them on their gayness is good and funny

mike huckabee hates gay people so much it's almost quaint

*bass solo*

You guys write for @seinfeldtoday?

im so excited

No one looked twice at that, what a world.

the primary campaign pre-season is about to come to a close after it began in mid november 2012

The New Walmart-Clinton opens on Sunday

new thread soon I guess

please no, confine the virus to this one for as long as possible

if this gets locked, then a new thread would contain the virus just as effectively

This place is a message…and part of a
system of messages…pay attention to it!

Sending this message was important to us.
We considered ourselves to be a powerful culture.

This place is not a place of honor…no
highly esteemed deed is commemorated here
…nothing valued is here.

silby sees no need for there to be a second Democratic candidate I guess... a True Party Apparatchik

The New York Times ‏@nytimes 52 seconds ago
In Florida, the head-on collision between Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush is discussed with funereal dread http://nyti.ms/1NmBaW6

:)

have 2 say if bush really is gonna be the guy for the republicans that chart does not speak well for gop prospects

and its not like his actual personality/record speak to some potential for ppl to like him more

like maybe rubio but he just seems so lightweight... he drank the water

if the democrats had a proven competent campaigner as the nom id feel pretty comfortable with their chances

http://i.huffpost.com/gen/990528/thumbs/o-MARCO-RUBIO-DRINK-570.jpg

lmao at the negative correlation for gop candidates. the better ppl know em, the more they hate em.

But GOP really good at going along with that "the enemy you know" rule better than anyone.

"I hate that guy, but at least I know where he waffles."

And yeah, Hillary's a bit like that, but GOP has played this game in every election since... 1968?

clinton's logo

i cannot vote for that logo

it looks like a puzzle we have to solve

It looks like a mobile app icon.

it looks like it's on the business card of a realtor who cannot get a job and so has "started his own firm"

neither red nor blue, pointing to the right as the way 'forward'

Oh, look! It has red and blue on white background, just like the colors of Old Glory!

Subtle triangulation motif
