  3. Moore is an idiot...... in order to remove Trump you need an actual candidate. If we do not get it down to one then what happens. If the candidates continue to show group love on stage but don't distance themselves as the true winner then no one will win. Warren needs to catch Biden but needs to take out the guy behind her.

    I think we just witnessed the first murder suicide of the primary...

  6. Sure, and all the other lefty cities- not sure about Portland- and their preferred candidates either have or want to decriminalize anything short of serial murder. So throwing a brick through someones window is just a lifestyle issue.

    The expectation is that the government only gets involved if someone complains that there is broken glass on the street where they want to pitch their tent or take a dump.

    It's all good.

  10. Man, Pocahonky is nuttier than hell with this statement. She needs to lay off the firewater or something.

    Pokey is the only one running with executive experience. Good gawd idiot, Joe was Vice President, Bernier was a mayor, and BootyBoy was a mayor, Deval Patrick was a two term governor in your own frigging state, Bloomy was a two term mayor of New York City. etc. etc. Idiot!

    I suppose she will try to clean it up a little by saying she meant she is the only one with executive experience in federal/natonal government because she was some kind consumer agency hack. Nevertheless, a case still be made that being Vice President is part of the executive branch, eh?

    The Dem Primary has just become a process of picking through the dumpster to see if anything good is in there.

    Warren claims she is the only person running with executive experience

    NEWTON, Iowa — Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren said she was the only White House hopeful who has spent any time in the executive branch on government at an Iowa rally, seemingly forgetting about a number of her rivals.


    The remarks came after an audience member asked her when she plans on using presidential authority for some of her policy agenda instead of relying on Congress.

    "That's a really good question. Let me remind you, I think, I'm the only one running for president whose actually been on the executive side," Warren said Friday evening. "Remember, after the consumer agency was passed into law, Barack Obama, President Obama, asked me to set it up. So I set up a federal agency. We effectively went from two employees the day I walked in the door to about 1000 and spent a year getting it up and operational."

    Warren was charged with leading the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau in 2010, though she later left the agency in 2011 after failing to be confirmed by the Senate. Warren's comments also overlooked a number of other Democrats seeking their party's nomination — most notably former Vice President Joe Biden, who served under Obama for eight years.

    Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, former mayors Pete Buttigieg of South Bend and Michael Bloomberg of New York may also have a bone to pick with Warren's comments. Before Sanders served in the House and later the Senate, he was the mayor of Burlington, Vermont, from 1981 to 1989. Buttigieg, who just left office this month, has also claimed that his role as mayor of South Bend has given him the necessary experience to jump to the White House. Similarly, Bloomberg has pointed to his record as mayor of the nation's largest city as evidence he's up for the job of president.
