    Someone asked what Franken is doing these days. Aside from some well written facebook posts offering perspective on certain things, his public service continues. Check out his website for details...

    I'm really tired of the "fair share" talking point.  State exactly what you mean regarding taxes and who is going to pay more.  This "fair share" crap is bullshit. 

    Beto announces massive spending for climate change...paid for by corporations and people paying their "fair share".  Please. I just know he is going to lump in the upper middle class with the crazy wealthy on this one.

    Trump is spending a lot of time attacking Biden.  He's really pissed that the firefighter's union already endorsed Biden, after sitting out '16.

    He attacks whomever he sees as the threat.  Tries to brand them immediately with nicknames and then people that follow trump just parrot that and don't listen.  Except he chose the wrong nickname for Creepy Joe so it won't work!

    Probably because it's a stupid fucking nickname, and it is more descriptive of him.

    I was surprised trump went with that nickname.

    Quick Biden.  Copyright that.

    I don't think Trump thinks it through that much. Not saying he doesn't strike gold sometimes.

    Makes no sense. Biden has plenty of energy. If Trump wants to nickname someone sleepy, he should be looking at Pence for the honour.

    Vice-President Joe Biden was massaging my neck
    I said why are you still here, your time has passed
    He said I hate Donald Trump, so it's time to kick ass

    Hahaha. This is amusing.

    Anyway.....HUGE lead for Biden in new CNN poll. I really like how he is separating himself from the others by going directly at Trump. Makes him seem like the presumptive nominee. And Trump taking his bait the last few days makes Biden appear more presidential than Trump....as if that is hard to do.

    The 17 candidates at 2% or less should drop out by or during the summer at some point. Have it be between Biden, Pete, Kamela, Betto and Warren heading into the fall. Nice mix of candidates there. Oh, shit. And Bernie, unfortunately.

    If you put a poll out for burgers from mom and pop shops and a Big Mac is listed a majority will pick the Big Mac.  Biden is a Big Mac.

    I think Biden is the only logical choice.  Any far left candidate will only appeal to blue strongholds and will chase middle state votes away.

    And that's his strategy.  He is taking on Trump and going after swing voters (Big 10 union members) straight out of the gate.  He's not getting drawn into the progressive arguments.
