Bush III?

[DeistPaladin]

The scary thing about Bush is that, sleazy as he is, he is likely to be a massive improvement over whatever retard the republicunts do nominate.
AT least he does not want to machine gun Mexicans at the border....a fact which will cost him the votes of the crazies who do.

Yes. The GOP has lurched so far to the right wing since 2008 that W now looks like a moderate. In fact, if W were a Senator instead of a retired ex-president, he'd probably be the leader of what passes for moderates in the GOP.

If I was a republican't (holy shit did I just type that?) I would vote for Rand Paul. With his stance on legalizing marijuana, he will get some of the younger vote that typically goes to the dems.

Just don't forget that Rand voted to deliberately default on our debts in Oct 2013.

On purpose.

As a political stunt.

If he'd had his way, the consequential economic collapse would make 2008 look like a minor correction. Investors would flee America, our credit rating would be 3rd world, and we'd likely go bankrupt from the skyrocketing interest we'd be forced to pay on our debt. We can only speculate on the disaster scenarios that would follow but suffice to say, Al Qaida could only dream of doing the kind of damage to America that Republicans like Rand Paul came close to doing.

We were saved at the 11th hour from that fate when the GOP "blinked" and the moderates averted that disaster.

Let's hope it doesn't happen in the next two years or the 2016 election might be moot.

Mitch McConnell is the relatively sane Republican Senator from Kentucky. Scary times we live in.
