and the funniest part of his "peace prize" was, he had only been in office a few months and had really done nothing before that. Talk about fixed. I lost all respect for the Nobel system when he was named the winner. Even though I would not have agreed with the decision, had he been in office a few years or contributed something to man kind prior to being elected I might feel differently

And in terms of long term impact its hard to overcome first impressions/early missteps. Dan Quayle would be exhibit A on that count.


I'll add the Dem she defeated in the primary did nothing nefarious. NY is famous for having multiple parties qualified to be on the ballot and both Rs and Ds are free to run on multiple lines. He received the working family party endorsement prior to Democratic primary. The only way he can be dropped is if he moved out of district, ran for another office, was convicted or died. He said none of those apply for him so he's simply quit campaigning. But leaving the ballot is not something in his control.
ok, you got me there. I was under the impression she was running for the state not the federal. Thanks for clearing that up for me

As for floundering her way through whatever, no Quayle was not a brainless or should I say less informed than she is. I am simply basing this on the two times I have seen her being interviewed and my opinion isn't based on her far left philosophy. She is just not ready for prime time.

As we see, even the people who issued it view it as a mistake. This type of Hypocrisy is the Norm for the Democratic party and Obama. They install Communists into the Government, Brennan and Van Jones. Destroy Muslim countries, then invite those they left homeless in at our expense. Install their Socialist policies and say it will save American money, in the case of the ACA it ended up being a tax, They have the IRS attack their rivals along with the FBI and CIA.

Not even close. There have been numerous people elected to the US House younger than her.

She could get compared to Trump and his bail out programs. Now, that would be embarrassing.

Watched some of her interview with Trevor Noah, quite entertaining. Someone needs to tell this raving lunatic that looking down when spewing your rhetoric is a known habit of liars. Most liars cannot look you in the eye when they are spreading the manure. Losers want socialism winners want capitalism.

After hearing this suburban princess turned Bronx homegirl, fumble over & over about how "Democrat Socialism" is supposed to work (who pays) I'm guessing even the leftists in her district are happy there's a more reasonable Democrat still on the ballot.
