Count everything, trust no one. One of the major and most critical issues involved in the Democratic Presidential Primary involves the suitability of HRC/HDR to become POTUS, given her history of reckless and irresponsible warmongering, being a Wall Street Shill and monomaniacal philodox.
Fact. Iowa entrance polls gave Bernie Sanders 91 percent support of people under 30. For New Hampshire it was 80%. Not bad for a 74 year-old white Jewish socialist from Brooklyn. This blows away and the lid off of those hoary theories that suggest millennial attraction applies only to the hip and inadvertent parvenu.
To vote implies a valid selection for an election. We have none. Vote #LionelNation in a write in. The horror that faces this country and world for that matter is incomprehensible. That is all. And vote. For me. What do you have to lose?
The imponderable. Fellow lover of sapience and reasonable liberty, I provide this to you but warn you that this is problematic. The state of our country, the criminal justice system and our political matrix are decrepit. These are very troubling times with little hope for improvement. You’re welcome.

This is a case that is most vexing and troubling on a variety of levels and dimensions.
This country is going right to hell. And if there’s a party to blame it’s the electorate, the citizens. The disentangled and disengaged. Untethered and unbelievable. The clueless, vapid, insipid and various. More interested in bogus viral videos of rats pulling pizza slices down subway steps or the interminable stories about Powerball dreamers and incongruous ideations. Listen. You’re welcome.
According to the new Morning Consult polling data released yesterday on the popularity of the 50 states' governors, Ohio Republican John Kasich is doing pretty well. Back in Ohio, he has a 59% approval rating and just a 29% disapproval rating. His popularity back home, though, isn't translating in the Republican presidential primary, where he is barely a factor.
Rubio called Scott Walker last week and made a hard push to pry an endorsement out of him.
Scott Walker- never quite ready for prime timeWhat ever happened to Scott Walker? I know that you already know.
