With his poll numbers tanking he has decided his dreams of being president can only be saved by pretending to be a crazy who wants to shut down the government. Too late though, his support was always soft with southern whites and his fall from grace is irreparable. I agree Bush and Christie are nothing like the other clowns. We'll see how far they get.

Srill, we won't have another Klown Kar this time around. I'm counting on that in their ignorance they'll probably pick a Hispanic to court the immigrant vote, but the Mexicans love Cubans about as much as the Irish love the English. Rubio is a nice guy, but out of his depth here. Cruz will eat him alive, he's not only ruthless, he's totally unprincipled. He makes Gingrich look good. Hell, he makes Trump look good. Romney, eh? Never happen. The Righties have convinced themselves they keep losing elections because they're not conservative enough.
