It does? I thought the idea was to elect the best person for the job. As far as performance, there hasn't been any and that's the point.
What about the Prez's thin skin?... That's not an ego issue?
Stop with the apologies, it's getting old already.

I'm not apologizing for anyone. I'm just pointing out the folly of supporting Trump. The inertia of a sitting President is quite strong (no matter who it is). I think it relates to the devil you know vs. the devil you don't know. It will take a much better candidate than Trump to unseat Obama. I doubt he could win the GOP primary in any state, including his home state (which wouldn't matter anyway as it will vote Democratic).

My, my....Getting a little hot are we? Arguing about this with you would be senseless as the things I see as positive are things you would likely despise. His support of organized labor being one, tenuous as it might be. And, I also admire his ability to maintain his composure under intense political fire. He has been under such intense fire starting long before he even won the election. Mostly from freaked out Republicans who still can't believe the American people DIDN'T choose one of their superhuman, square jawed caucasian, Great American, anal-retentive supermen and his ditzy fish pummeling VP candidate.
The point is that Trump has done nothing for anyone but himself, ever. 200 lbs of pompous, arrogant, conceited, self-serving jackass under a bad hairdo. The reason Barrack Obama is better is because he isn't Donald Trump. Obama may be lame, but Trump is an asshole. "Lame", to my mind is the lesser of two evils.
Do you want the rest of America to look like Atlantic City?
Clear enough?

No, that was not clear or rational. Again, why is Obama better than Trump? That's just politics, not skill. The fire has not even been lit yet!
Also, why do you hate white people?
Check out the caring, compassionate left. To all of you who think the left isn't all about money, listen to this guy. Hell, he hates people who earn it, yet he will stop at nothing to plunder your wealth. This is the venom and goal of the left...right here folks.

And this is "clear and rational"?
I don't hate white people, that's ridiculous. I don't even hate Trump, I just recognize him for what he is----A guy who screws people over to enrich himself and no one else. Is there anyone you hate, I wonder?
Of course the left is about money. Everyone is, to some degree. I am, you are, everybody is.
Why don't you tell me why you think Trump would be so great? Because he created a few jobs in the gambling, drinking and whoring around industries?
Almost forgot---"Yaw fiyed!"

Ha, ha!
A monster lightning bolt hit close, then a second one hit even closer. The power went out for a while. I love violent electrical storms!

McCain did very well in 2008, considering the GOP name was mud. Think about it.
I saw what running on the status quo did to Strickland. Unless there are some serious changes it'll do the same for Obama, and with each passing day he's alienating his zealot base.

Frankly it does not matter which loser the GOP picks for 2012, they have already crapped in their own nest. I doubt that whoever they run will garner more than 5% of the independent voters.
Instead of creating jobs - as they promised - they are farting and fiddling around trying to kill NPR and PBS, twiddling away at budget items that don't amount to squat.
Where are all the new jobs?? Inquiring minds want to know.
Instead they have a bunch of idiot boy governors handing out pink slips and generally pissing people off. The next elections in Wisconsin and Ohio will see the Dems take over the governor's mansion and I would not be surprised to see a few other heads roll. These horse's patoots seem to forget that public employees also pay taxes and what's more they also vote.
People wake up to the silly games the GOP play, the recent governorial election here in Maryland proved that. Bobby Haircut kept saying he had not raised taxes, but the voters said no , you just raised fees and as far as they were concerned it all came out of the same pocket, no matter what you call it. He lost by a wide, wide margin. Screw me once, shame on you, screw me twice and shame on me.

Remember Bill Clinton - in 1991?
