targeted his "My dad was a postman and I balanced the Ohio budget so that qualifies me to be President" ad to those markets. That could have given him the advantage. He's been all over the NH market with that ad, and it has been running for several weeks. Southern NH uses Boston for some of their media--they have their own ABC outlet, but they rely on Boston for NBC and CBS. I wonder if IA has been treated to that oddball ad as well?

I will bet a lot that Fiorina is VP choice [View all] Laura PourMeADrink Aug 2015 OP

Nope. n/t PoliticAverse Aug 2015 #1

Particularly if Hillary is the nominee. They will need some sort of diversity on their ticket. stevenleser Aug 2015 #2

She'd be a big mistake for the GOP. cwydro Aug 2015 #23

I WISH!!!! She's lousy--not appealing at all. MADem Aug 2015 #3

She's the only one who can actually speak to issues WhaTHellsgoingonhere Aug 2015 #13

"The Donald" speaks to issues--they're hate - filled screeds, but he's certainly speaking to issues! MADem Aug 2015 #19

Excuse me? Are you making "mental" disparagements against me because you like Trump? MADem Aug 2015 #55

lol WhaTHellsgoingonhere Aug 2015 #56

No, I don't think I want to do that--I want you to explain yourself. MADem Aug 2015 #57

Oh, you're "good" at "this" WhaTHellsgoingonhere Aug 2015 #58

I don't need to "decrypt" anything. You're behaving like a bully. I'd like to know why. MADem Aug 2015 #64

He avoided real issues in the debate; sounded like any old politician--only a misogynstic, hateful 1 meir34 Aug 2015 #72

I don't disagree that he's misogynistic and hateful, but he addressed a BIG issue right out of the MADem Aug 2015 #73

Well, she sure as hell did a lot for HP! calimary Aug 2015 #77

She's got experience running businesses into the ground. hobbit709 Aug 2015 #4

oh yes ! and it has a hollow ring to it. Even dumbbell Willie said it too. nt Laura PourMeADrink Aug 2015 #24

Someone sporting the Maria Von Trapp in the Nunnery 'do is dissing Barbara Boxer's hair? MADem Aug 2015 #20

LOL !!! Don't you go trashing Maria !! Laura PourMeADrink Aug 2015 #25

Ha ha ha!!! MADem Aug 2015 #32

Did you see her suit tonight? It's some kinds of red satin. nt Laura PourMeADrink Aug 2015 #27

It looked very expensive--a little too expensive. MADem Aug 2015 #42

That hair ages her 10 years TexasBushwhacker Aug 2015 #36

She looks like Jane Hathaway getting mic'd up, there! MADem Aug 2015 #37

Nope leftynyc Aug 2015 #15

I've said all along that Kasich is running for VP this year Maeve Aug 2015 #16

Exactly leftynyc Aug 2015 #59

That's a reasonable bet. Kasich is out early w/the ads. Walker is too polarizing. MADem Aug 2015 #21

Jeb! will not be anyone's #2. Rubio + Jeb! is too much Florida. Rubio could go with Walker or Kasich Erose999 Aug 2015 #33

Of course not. Jeb! wants the WH, not the Naval Observatory. MADem Aug 2015 #34

Cruz regularly hosts events at Tortilla Coast which is DC's finest in "Gringo friendly Tex-Mex" Erose999 Aug 2015 #66

Phew--he doesn't have to remember that "cerveza" word! nt MADem Aug 2015 #67

Rubio was kinda underwhelming. I think Kasich really shined by being above the fray. They say Erose999 Aug 2015 #69

It's because they're both from the same state leftynyc Aug 2015 #60

Like CHENEY was from Wyoming when he decided he wanted to be VEEP? LOL! MADem Aug 2015 #63

Jeb will team with Walker or Kasich. Jeb will not be a VP. Walker could go either way. Those fuckers Erose999 Aug 2015 #17

Could explain why Fox scammed on the polls and got Kasich in. nt Laura PourMeADrink Aug 2015 #28

Whenever someone drones on about their poor upbringing it just rings so hollow. Remember Laura PourMeADrink Aug 2015 #76

Really? She adds very little. Tommy_Carcetti Aug 2015 #18

It has to be Cruz or Rubio or Fiorina. If the go with a white guy pampango Aug 2015 #22

Taking the Confederate flag down killed her chances. She's despised among the Teapublicans in her Erose999 Aug 2015 #70

Maybe not--the shitflinging on the party wings happens during the primaries. MADem Aug 2015 #71

She is a perfect fit. Other than the obvious attempt to appeal to women, she thinks of AllFieldsRequired Aug 2015 #26

that's funny....they are SO out-of-touch they actually think women will vote Laura PourMeADrink Aug 2015 #39

No - gonna be Ohio!Ohio! Kasich elfin Aug 2015 #31

May be. I just find it very very suspicious that they are pushing her. I work from Laura PourMeADrink Aug 2015 #38

Yes it's very interesting wheniwasincongress Aug 2015 #43

It's going to be Pawlenty or Thune NYCButterfinger Aug 2015 #46

hmmm. I had forgotten about Pawlenty. Isn't he extraordinarily boring? nt Laura PourMeADrink Aug 2015 #47

Yes, but boring may be better than style NYCButterfinger Aug 2015 #48

Dollar to donuts that unless their nominee is Rubio, their VP candidate will not be a white male tritsofme Aug 2015 #49

For sure it will be a woman but more likely a Hispanic woman. DCBob Aug 2015 #50

To whom Shrub 2, or the Walker? Cleita Aug 2015 #51

If this is so, the pukes must hate her because she is a woman and she's smarter than they are. CTyankee Aug 2015 #52

I think that's the Koch brothers' manipulation. robertpaulsen Aug 2015 #53
