    Keep thing in the short term while those of us who know what is going on look at the long run viability of our country.

    Repubs should target her for any kind of debate. Then humiliate her in the House anytime she opens that pie hole. Only the leftness would try and make an uneducated simpleton as one of their Stars.

    By your own logic, Trump IS the voice of the executive branch and has far more power than YOU have. Hahahahah.

    Partizan is right - she is hardly in power. She's a newbie that hasn't even been sworn in yet, she's at the bottom of the barrel in Congress and she's already annoying the people with seniority. That ain't gonna get her very far. She's an elected politician, but it's like she doesn't even know how to play office politics at a bartender level, much less how to play the game at the national level.

    Just how to you account for comparing a sexual deviant with this Congresswoman???? This isn't about Weiner, or Hastert for that matter (you know the GOP Congressman who kept, literally, drooling over Monica Lewinski's red dress' stain and then got busted himself for forcing sex on little boys)... Is there something wrong with you????

    Don't need to when responding to posts such as your own that only address the poster and not the subject.

    I will admit that I have been posting down to your level, and that was wrong of me. Do get back to me when you feel like discussing the OP, or when you graduate. Ta.

    The Democrats have always been the party with the widest range of sub ideologies and diverse social positions. What other party was able to hold Southern racist anti union segregationalists and Northern liberal pro labor social progressives. They also had flashes of the Eugene McCarthy and McGoverns and the Scoop Jacksons on the sane end. Republicans were only able to tolerate the Jawitzes and Rockefellers in small doses.

    Why does this freshman representative bother you Republicans so much that you feel the need to constantly belittle her. I bet a million bucks you wouldn't do it to her face.

    I think that she just might become president, yes. Of course that happening will require that the leftist loyal Mainstream Media pulls another Barack Obama on this nation and religiously spins and covers for her and intimates that anyone not also worshiping her is a misogynist and bigot. It just depends on the general mood of the nation at the time, however, whether or not yet another mass attempt of a rectal insertion of someone utterly unqualified for the office works or not.

    Obama -- who clearly was NOT qualified to be president back in 2008 -- made it only because there was a perfect storm of political events leading up to his reach for the brass ring. Had he made his political move at a different point in time he might instead have gotten laughed off the political stage . . . as he would have deserved.

    The NDP is kind of the "any port in the storm, whatever it takes, nothing of substance" party.

    Seems to me you are unable to successfully provide rebuttal for any of my ever on-topic posts whatsoever. So you resort to criticisms, trolling, and name calling. Pitiful.

    Well, the problem with that sentiment is that it's the very same one that got Trump elected, let's put this guy in and shake up the power system. Whatever else you can say about him - and it's a lot - he has at least done that. So we have people saying calling Trump an inexperienced buffoon - which is true - but then on the same hand praising this idiot for behaving the same way. For all intents and purposes this lady is pretty much Trump writ small.

    You remember the opening scene in 2001: A Space Odyssey? The one with two tribes of hominids fighting over a watering hole? IMHO that's what the two parties are nowadays - there's almost no perceivable political difference between the two, merely two tribes warring over power. I mean, it USED to be different but it's gonna be a loooo-o-ooong time before we get back to that. If we ever do.

    Those two were instrumental in getting a president elected to change the policy of the founders on allowing a corporation to become and individual...Thus allowing such individuals to sway elections by forcing candidates in the Republican party that killed the Democratic agri-party candidates. Thus the state of pluralism was born in the USA.

    Had anyone Left of Center paid attention to what typically issued from her mouth during any of the fawning leftist interviews conducted with her then they would know that she is an idiot, since it was all that said leftist journalists could do NOT to call her out on her blatant political idiocies.

    But then again radical generated idiocy is the future of the Dem Party. It has been long in coming but now it is going to turn into a political avalanche as more Kool-Aid drinking and essentially mindless socialism promoting political drones follow in her path. It was inevitable. Sweet!
