R - As a candidate, you have raised those issues consistently, over and over and over again.

B - I have. Without much success, I must say.

Three presidential candidates remain. Guess who is the third wheel?

ProgressiveS or liberals don't want to be told what to think. FOX is affective because conservatives are lazy and will let someone else tell them what they think.

The first time a progressive commentator told me that I needed to vote for **** or we don't like an elected official, I would turn it off.

economic conservative commentary just like Fox, except generally not too bothered by gay marriage.

And just what we don't need - Hillary and Bill Clinton in control of a news network.

I dont want ANY party financing a news network.

20. Bernie's latest idea for killing the Democratic Party

You can see through him so clearly we oughta just call him Saran Wrap Sanders. He's no Democrat. The second he drops out of the race he will also drop the D behind his name. The experiences of Air America and Current TV demonstrate why this is a REALLY stupid idea: those stations went broke for lack of viewers (listeners in the case of Air America) and lack of sponsors.

Go back to Vermont, Bernie. We'll call you when we find a Democrat to primary you.
