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

lag∞n, Sunday, 12 April 2015 14:54 (nine years ago) link

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

lag∞n, Sunday, 12 April 2015 14:55 (nine years ago) link

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

lag∞n, Sunday, 12 April 2015 14:56 (nine years ago) link

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

lag∞n, Sunday, 12 April 2015 14:58 (nine years ago) link

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."

pplains, Sunday, 12 April 2015 18:16 (nine years ago) link

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

clinton's logo

Clay, Sunday, 12 April 2015 19:48 (nine years ago) link

i cannot vote for that logo

Clay, Sunday, 12 April 2015 19:49 (nine years ago) link

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"

Clay, Sunday, 12 April 2015 20:04 (nine years ago) link

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

j., Sunday, 12 April 2015 20:04 (nine years ago) link

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

Subtle triangulation motif

how did they get the head of the arrow thru those two immovable pillars of the white voter base?! ~that's just how good their triangulation is~

calling her campaign a turkey eh

The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Sunday, 12 April 2015 22:54 (nine years ago) link

One of my fb friends said "Swipe right for Hillary!"

Johnny Fever, Sunday, 12 April 2015 23:14 (nine years ago) link

appropriate that this announcement takes place on the seventieth anniversary of FDR's death.

The burrito of ennui (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Sunday, 12 April 2015 23:15 (nine years ago) link

I would love it if Clinton instituted a total media blackout for the length of the campaign. Communicate with her supporters entirely by email and social media. I mean, it's Hillary fucking Clinton. Who doesn't know everything they need to know to either vote for her or not vote for her? And the DC press all hate her guts anyway, and she hates them, so she should completely shut them out - no interviews, and if any of her staff talks to the press, they're fired, instantly.

As much as I like that idea on the surface, it seems a little dictatorial.

Johnny Fever, Monday, 13 April 2015 00:21 (nine years ago) link

but, 誤訳侮辱, that's no different than her policy as First Lady.

@DennisThePerrin
"Americans have fought their way back from tough economic times, but the deck is still stacked in favor of those at the top." Hillary slays.

holy shit that logo. I wonder if FedEx feels ripped off.

We might as well start speculating who her running mate will be.

Robert Earl Hughes (dandydonweiner), Monday, 13 April 2015 01:12 (nine years ago) link

hillarys logo is pretty good compared to yr average political fare imho

lag∞n, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:17 (nine years ago) link

its maybe too good

lag∞n, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:17 (nine years ago) link

sure. Fed Ex is reliable.

what the heck is that thing

lag∞n, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:24 (nine years ago) link

the offense that hillary seems to have committed here is going outside the normal campaign palate without really nailing it like obama did causing ppl who otherwise dont notice things like logos or design to become startled, i mean not that it matters

lag∞n, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:28 (nine years ago) link

Rand Paul's is upsetting, the U feels so gigantic. The little red zest strips across the A feel so last-minute, and vaguely like a shoe brand from 25 years ago.

Doctor Casino, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:31 (nine years ago) link

What is wrong with Paul's A? Did it break?

pplains, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:32 (nine years ago) link

team hillary def loves their logo tho lol its all over the website https://www.hillaryclinton.com including breaking the arrow motif out on its own, its kind weird tho there doesnt seem to be any workmark of her whole name with the arrow H as the first letter, which i guess makes sense as the arrow sticks out and wld kind f up yr kerning, which tbf does seem like p bad design

lag∞n, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:34 (nine years ago) link

wow actually it's eerie how similar HRC's font is to FedEx.

Her logo looks much worse the smaller it gets. The red overwhelms the blue pretty badly. And the arrow thing is overplayed.

Robert Earl Hughes (dandydonweiner), Monday, 13 April 2015 01:39 (nine years ago) link

I like it more when it's monochromatic.

Johnny Fever, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:43 (nine years ago) link

i guess obama never used his logo as the first letter in his wordmark either but like he couldve

lag∞n, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:45 (nine years ago) link

maybe its all fine i think its fine

lag∞n, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:45 (nine years ago) link

all white ppl on that home page

brunch technician (silby), Monday, 13 April 2015 01:50 (nine years ago) link

the HOPE poster became Obama's logo, i wonder if HRC has folks working round the clock to somehow come up with a likewise idea.

piscesx, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:51 (nine years ago) link

no doubt

lag∞n, Monday, 13 April 2015 01:55 (nine years ago) link

each time i see the Romney logo, i think it looks like this:

But then I get home and look at that Powers logo and think, no, they're only vaguely similar, why do I think this?
