    So this is what the vast right-wing conspiracy looks like?

    Thought yesterday encapsulated the current state of American politics perfectly. A politician I dislike like was battered repeatedly by politicians I strongly dislike for purely partison reasons that have little to nothing to do with the stated goal of the hearing. This was an absolute farce perpetrated at our expense. These allegedly small government, allegedly fiscally conservative Republicans could have only wasted our money more clearly if they lit a bonfire with it inside the hearing room.

    Hillary certainly won the battle. When the Drudge Report headline is about her coughing fit, then you can call it an unmitigated failure for the committee.

    That Fox News cut away from the hearing is also very telling.

    Bingo.
    And your comment earlier Jimmy V about them not winning over independents was spot on as well.
    They are playing amateur hour at the behest of the likes of Limbaugh, Hannity, et al.

    Yesterday seemed to go about as well as it possibly could have for her. Been a good couple weeks.

    Meanwhile, Carson is leading in Iowa on the other side. haha

    Losing their way? They've lost their way, since at least 2008 when McCain selected Sister Sarah as his running mate.

    Imagine if R's focused on fiscal policy and making govt more efficient rather than all these National Inquirer headline subjects. Guessing they'd get few more votes.

    Been watching great series on a monkey group in India. Politics is an integral part of their daily lives as it is in ours. Good for you to understand politics, it's in our nature. Do understand comfort received from your protector and text.

    Shit show vindictive attack politics is what hurts all the politicians.Once they play that card I look elsewhere.
    Where is the focus studies asking independents such as myself what we are looking for.Fiscal conservatives who are socially more progressive.
    They need our vote(both parties) to put them in office,but they all seem to dense to understand the harm the do to themselves in our eyes.
    My wife votes pretty heavy with the Republicans but after this carnival she said if she was voting today it would be Hillary.That says a lot right there

    I would call myself social liberal, fiscally moderate, internationally isolationist (within reason)..and no, there is definitely not a candidate on the right for me and no one even close. They can't get through the primary, it's that simple. There are lots of studies that show the GOP losing its share of the total electorate with indys, millenials, and Latinos. But they don't care. Just read the articles and comments on sites like Breitbart, National Review, Townhall, etc. and you will see that they are continuing to move further right.. to hell with general elections. The 'base' already hates Paul Ryan. They call him the 'Amnesty Speaker' already.

    I like Ryan.Hes a bright charismatic guy.Look for him to run in 2020

    He would poll less than 5% in the primaries today. There is no place for someone like Ryan in the party. Anyone who is interested in governing rather than throwing bombs is a RINO.
    I would intuitively think he's a social moderate, but since you aren't allowed to be a moderate in the party, we really have no idea.

    It really does. My surgeon buddy is a big time Libertarian but he finds himself voting liberally because of the rampant anti-intellectualism and idiotic pandering to the Evangelicals.

    What is hilarious to me is the hype that the right wing put on that hearing. They beat the drum like the GOP is going to tear Hillary to shreds and then they come across like a bunch of absolute morons. The right wing press is in a real bind trying to salvage any victory out of the hearing.

    Hillary absolutely trashed them and she looked Presidential in the process.

    The focus on Sidney Blumenthal's emails is a joke. The entire GOP narrative about "unanswered questions" is even more laughable.
