Chaffee started this "Holiday Tree" bullshit. For that alone, he should be eliminated.

Jocularity...more jocularity
Capitol Hill was the site of intense negotiations this week as House and Senate leaders debated raising the debt ceiling. The request for more U.S. spending never ceases. Joe Biden just demanded more money for the War on Drugs after he heard that millions of kids are getting hooked on phonics.

I bet they won't be running or Talking about Obama's track record. I think Sanders will steal the stage, not because he's a master speak or politician, but because the others are turds and liars. Sanders is rather authentic and never ran a negative political add.
The lefties, especially the older ones love him. The guy is drawing crowds.

I'm thinking they will be running against Boosh, while conveniently forgetting that one of their own has been running the joint for the past seven years.

If Jeb was in front, they would play that baseless fear card. But he's not.

On the bottom row, that looks like Rand Paul and Ted Cruz.

TIm Steelers fan will have to verify this but I believe O'malley is the Maryland Governor that signed the Rain Tax in to law.
My Bet is they will all bend over backwards promising more government programs(and bigger government) paid for by money that they get from making you evil 1%ers pay your fair share of taxes.
if they make Burgundy pay more taxes, and become worse off because of it, can he then identify himself as being black so as to make ark's internal racist happy?
here's what's up on o'malley

Former Maryland Gov. Martin O'Malley will launch his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination Saturday in Baltimore. During the forthcoming campaign, it will be impossible for O'Malley to escape his past as a fiscal liberal who made higher taxes rain over Maryland.
Maryland was hit by 40 tax hikes costing $9.5 billion during O'Malley's eight years in office, from 2007-14. Tax-weary Marylanders made Republican Larry Hogan governor in 2014, bucking O'Malley's lieutenant governor, Anthony Brown, who was the Democratic candidate. Less-patient Marylanders voted with their feet and simply fled the state: Almost 72,000 people left Maryland from mid-2007 to mid-2014, according to Census Bureau data.
O'Malley didn't hit just the rich with his tax hikes; everyone from Ocean City to Cumberland felt the pain. The state sales tax rose to 6 percent and was applied to an increasing number of items. On the campaign trail, O'Malley may come to regret his infamous "rain tax," which imposed a fee on property owners due to storm water management efforts. Birth and death certificate fees doubled, taking more money from Marylanders on both ends of their life.

If any one of them truly has the EGO to try and win, they will go after Hilldog. I doubt any of them will. The Dems have done a great job of sticking together. The GOP needs to take a few lessons.
But, I sure hope someone does go after her and all of her scandals. It would have the potential to make her fall even harder and put that person on the map.

Predictions: A lot of softball questions intended to allow the candidates to compare themselves favorably with Republicans
Hil tries to come out as "strong, angry Hillary" to compete with Trump, makes herself even less likeable than ever

Our unbiased media...color me shocked.

I expect questions like "If you were a tree, what kind of tree would you be, and why do you think Republicans hate trees?"

"What color is the flag? Why do Republicans only see white?"
My prediction is that Sanders absolutely shreds the other candidates in the debate and Hilary shows enough weakness in the polls that Biden is in the race before Thanksgiving.
The party fix is still in for Hilary but it might at least become a rave worth following if Biden enters.

Chafee has been trying to attack Hillary since he first announced, and I'm sure he'll try again during the debate. The problem is that he comes across as if he spent his entire childhood chewing on lead paint chips, so no one will even notice what he's saying....
