    You certainly don't!
    Sorry, but I actually do


    My mom did too. She lived longer than she thought she would.
    Don't really know the situation, so I can't comment on that. I can comment on our situation.

    Finally Joe is on the go!
    Joe Biden just swamped the South Carolina primary and got himself back in the game with a resounding win as the Super Tuesday with 14 states looms on the horizon.

    Go Joe Go!

    The guy who actually thought we had 150 million gun deaths since 2007. It was more, he said, than all the wars combined. Not exactly reassuring.

    I sure don't want a repeat of 1972! Probably wouldn't have made a difference despite Tricky having issues.

    Mitch and Bernie will get along fabulously. Especially if a SCOTUS seat comes up and whatever judges needs filling. Primary ain't over yet and like I say the dem nominee gets my vote and I ain't gonna hold my nose either. I'm a realist though whatever the outcome I'll have my own plan that has always worked best for me, and mine.

    You know how these things go Tom, hope for the best, plan for the worst! Go Joe Go!

    quid pro Joe would be better for the country than Bolshevik Bernie . If Joe is the nominee he won't be able to skate on the question of Biden corruption....and not just Hunter's millions in Ukraine and China ;but also Joe's brother who leveraged the fact that he is Joes brother to make one lucrative deal after another . In fact one of those businesses was raided by the FBI last month .Bet you didn't hear that on the Sunday morning news shows today . James it turns out leveraged Biden's name to attract international clients to drive up the value of two rural hospitals merger . He also used Joe's name to downplay legal ramifications .
    “Jim [Biden] told me. Don’t worry every time someone threatens to sue you you’re with us now nobody is gonna touch you.” According to the lawsuit, “It was Frey’s understanding that Lewitt was implying that DMM [Diverse Medical Management] was 'protected' because of Jim Biden’s connections.”
    https://www.realclearinvestigations....m__122447.html

    This is just one of many examples where Jim Biden used quid pro Joe's influence to cash in . This isn't even the most famous example ….just the most recent one.

    if you are a Republican and any of the primaries tomorrow are open primaries then you must voted for Biden or even better Nanny Bloomy on the Democratic ballot instead of voting for the unopposed Trump on the Republican ballot .The goal here is to force a brokered convention Why not ? The Democrat do that when their candidate is unopposed like the emperor was in 2012 . If the political parties are stupid enough to have open primaries then they deserve what they get .

    Tomder55: Have to ask you: Where did you get "Nanny Bloomberg"? I love it and it really fits him to a tee but where did you get it? I don't know if I have ever seen a candidate with less charisma than Bloomberg...well, maybe, Michael Dukakis, but Bloomberg is purely rancid!

    I have to take credit for it . I saw him up close in action in NYC where he dictated soda size ,plastic straws ;keeping restaurants from having salt shakers on tables . This is not the stuff that Mayors should obsess over . I heard the phrase nanny state and put the two together . He reminds me of this quote from CS Lewis .
    “Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.”
