2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumIt should not be an admirable political strategy to lie to the American people
I had to turn off MHP this morning. They were talking about the great political strategy it is for Romney and Ryan to go to seniors and "muddy the waters" about the medicare plans (Obama's and Ryan/Romney's).
They talked about how much "Kahonas" Ryan has to go before seniors and discuss medicare.
First of all, the seniors they are addressing in Florida this morning are hand-picked republicans who would not need/nor care about what happens to average seniors on medicare.
Secondly: it is not brave, nor kahona-ish to lie to a group of seniors in an attempt to gain power so that they can take that hard earned medicare and put it in the pockets of their rich friends.
And finally a note to MHP: either control that Republican who sits on your panel, monopolizes the speaking time, interrupts everyone else, spewing right wing talking points--or take the risk of him destroying your show.

Cojones means balls.
They were saying Ryan has balls.
