    If the majority of people who called themselves Christians behave as he did I'd actually have some respect for the religion.

    Currently watching what they’ve dubbed the “big boy” press conference.
    Based on the chyrons and the quick reactions, to me it looks like the Party Machine has already decided he’ll be out of the race.

    I guess we'll have to settle for Vice President Trump.

    He should just tell the Corn Pop story again. Always a crowd-pleaser.

    I'm getting the feeling that this presser is the worst possible outcome. His answers are coherent, but soft spoken, and he's made a few gaffes. Not good enough to dispel worries about his age, not bad enough to convince him he needs to drop out.

    I thought it was interesting that he’s up there saying he’s in it for good, and the CNN chyron says “BREAKING NEWS: PRES. BIDEN SAYS ‘I WOULDN’T HAVE PICKED HARRIS IF SHE COULDN’T BE PRESIDENT’”

    That’s just the press doing press things.


    What are you talking about Dark Brandon is a hit with young voters?

    In local democracy news, I went to a town meeting. I was the second youngest person there, and only because someone had dragged their teenage son along. When you look out over that sea of grey and white hair, you begin to understand why our government(s) functions the way it does.

    I bet the whole room smelled like vitamins.

    I get my local political news from the Facebook community page, which is basically people wondering if the black person they saw at Dunkin' Donuts is from the migrant shelter.

    I watched the whole thing on the news and he definitely got hit. He grabs his ear and then when they're taking him away, his ear is bleeding.
