rmoney will be treated worse than dukakis after losing.

i don't imagine that ryan will ever be able to run again for president or vice-president, but as a congresscritter he's not a nobody like rmoney.

Unfortunately, the Koch brothers will probably still finance another run for him, maybe with Jeb Bush, Rand Paul or some other crook... That's all they know.

So we will probably be forced to endure his mendacity again. I wonder if it's too much to ask to have him removed from his place as budget committee head Congress. I guess so.

The fact anyone in this country voted for the tag team of Romney/Bain and Paul/Ayn Rand, is very troubling. Facts, truth and people are being sacrificed for crumbs from these robber barons who want to dismantle the government and sell it off to their cronies.

I'm sure that those libertarians who get fat off military contracts, that they don't want to pay taxes on, from top to bottom, were ready to go to war with Iran, or anyone, to keep those tax dollars going to them. It is a civil war without the guns, that they are committing on other people in the USA who aren't well connected.

JMHO.

He doesn't read all the newspapers in the world like Grifter Snooki does.

Arrogance will get the progressive movement nowhere. They need to play this strong but they don't want to be doing a year long victory lap.
