Well…with all of the pundits going with the conventional wisdom that Hillary is going to be the nominee for 2016 from the left, a small bombshell was dropped yesterday when one of my favorite senators, Bernie Sanders, said that he is thinking of running for president and I almost jumped out of my chair and cheered…if you don’t know Bernie, he is registered an independent but caucuses with the dems, but is the old throwback type of politician who is honest, and does not care who he pisses off be it the right, wall street, or even the cowardly dems who won’t stand up for the people who elected them…the biggest champion of the middle class going, along with Elizabeth Warren and someone who I could easily vote for and support…this man calls out the idiots and the afraid in congress to try to forge a new day for the middle class and is not afraid of taking on the money in this country…now, we just need to get Liz to run with him and we on the left would have our dream ticket….run, Bernie, run….

I find this so damn funny…
Well…as Christie won the governorship of NJ again on Tuesday, I find it funny that the knives have come out from the other potential ’16 candidates from the repubs already…both Rubio and Paul have attacked starting with the contention that Christie’s lopsided win has nothing to do with any future elections…basically saying that NJ is just NJ and the rest of the country just doesn’t care for Christie….and the second one I heard of today was that ole Paul, at a senate hearing the other day, laid into Christie’s use of some of the Sandy aid for commercials to get people to come back to the NJ shore to try to jumpstart tourism there because most of them had Christie in them; calling them a blatant waste of government money for personal political gain…this is where I really start to laugh since ole Paul was one of the drivers behind the gov’t shutdown that cost the country over 24 billion dollars…and, for what I can see, it was for Paul’s and Cruz’s personal political gain and fundraising, since there was never any chance of them getting Obamacare repealed. The more I listen to ole Paul, the more I think he is just another of the privileged repubs that were born on third base and think they hit a triple, and just can’t take it when his bad behavior is called out…like in the plagarism scandal…what a sorry piece of work who can’t even be bothered to do his own work…anywhere….geez…
