Bill Maher: If Hillary gets the 2016 nomination, I�ll vote for Rand Paul [View all] kpete Sep 2014 OP

Maher never learns. MohRokTah Sep 2014 #1

I think he will come around. He has moments of crazy (or lucidity, not sure which). PeaceNikki Sep 2014 #4

In 2000, Maher supported Nader over Al Gore. John1956PA Sep 2014 #2

He needs to support a real Democrat in the Primary. n/t factsarenotfair Sep 2014 #3

Paul won't be the GOP nominee n2doc Sep 2014 #5

Ted Cruz will be the nomination? Isn't he Canadian? Initech Sep 2014 #16

Cruz will divide the t-bag vote with Paul n2doc Sep 2014 #18

If Republicans run Cruz, then couldn't Democrats run Jennifer Granholm?... cascadiance Sep 2014 #25

Ha ha ha ha!!!! MADem Sep 2014 #27

Though I guess the tea partiers weren't wanting to make sure that McCain was born on a military base cascadiance Sep 2014 #40

Except that now Paul supports the war on ISIS. That blows that rationale out of the water stevenleser Sep 2014 #6

Yep. Republicans (of all stripes) campaign as a moderate but rule as a RWer. BlueCaliDem Sep 2014 #11

Correct. Unlike his dad, Rand is a 100% phony. He flips to neocon positions in a hearbeat. Faryn Balyncd Sep 2014 #23

I think many are tired of the corporate candidates being pushed on us NorthCarolina Sep 2014 #7

Maher is a stopped asshole who shits right twice a day. Orrex Sep 2014 #8

You are SO right. mimi85 Sep 2014 #22

To my reading, Maher is contemplating voting for Rand Paul. AtomicKitten Sep 2014 #12

Bill Maher notwithstanding, this attitude will likely become more apparent in the near future. progressoid Sep 2014 #13

Another stupid statement by Bill. Scuba Sep 2014 #14

Money fucks with your soul. Orsino Sep 2014 #15

So does doing Ann Coulter. nt mimi85 Sep 2014 #24

Oh please.. the guy gave a million dollars to Obama... SomethingFishy Sep 2014 #34

According to the OP, Maher's done a bit of soul-searching since 2012. Orsino Sep 2014 #48

Maher has always been a sexist, homophobic asshole... joeybee12 Sep 2014 #17

This is a guy with an awkward personal life, to put it kindly. MADem Sep 2014 #26

Yep, a Hillary presidency will separate the sexists from the racists. MohRokTah Sep 2014 #28

No question about it. In fact I suspect Hillary will get even more hateful barbs thrown at her still_one Sep 2014 #31

At least she won't be hounded over her birth certificate. eom MohRokTah Sep 2014 #32

that is true, but never put anything past the tea baggers still_one Sep 2014 #38

They'll just hound her over her date of birth. MADem Sep 2014 #47

But many of us would rather someone like Elizabeth Warren have to put up with the sexism! cascadiance Sep 2014 #35

Warren will put the focus squarely on the working class and fairness for all. NYC_SKP Sep 2014 #39

who cares. maher is just a stupid entertainer who thinks more highly of himself than he is worth still_one Sep 2014 #29
