So far we have Christie, Rand Paul, Ted Cruz and Jeb. Who else do you think will be in that car?

(31,706 posts)...we saw how well that worked in 2012. Load up the car with all sorts of clowns...put them on stage for endless debates...and let them out wingnut one another.
A lot of who will run in '16 depends on how things go next year. If the teabaggers stay a major force, the rushpublican primaries in '16 will be a race to the bottom and moderates like Christie and Jebbie (yep, a moderate when compared to a Paulbot Jr. and Cruz) stuck with very sloppy seconds.
Don't forget rumblings from slimebags such as Walker in Wisconsin, Ricky Rectorum and Rockin' Marco Rubio...it should make for some fun times. And I'm sure we'll have even more depending on the outcome of next year's elections...

(11,464 posts)Election season has started, and we all should act like election season and not tear the democratic party down even if there are tiny wedge issues and stick to raising the democratic party up and to the positive imho
Note that there is not one serious female candidate the republicans have in this the decade of the woman candidate.
Best for the republican civil war to be amongst themselves and to beware of attempting to alter their race.
It is quite possible Jeb/Rand could be the ticket and get the worst of both worlds in their party

(11,464 posts)Why people in the altmedia worry about all the crazy repubs and then tear down Hillary who will wallop them all I don't know.
there are more of us than them.
if 100% of the democratic voters voted straight democratic, we would be an 80-20 democratic world.
