It's not her age I worry about it's her ideas and lust for money and power. I think she may care less for money and it's just a means to an end to her for the power. She has something to prove to herself and it may never be sated until she croaks or has half naked hand slaves feeding her grapes.

Who would you like to see as his running mate, Mags -- Ann Coulter?
..........I don't like her much. But I understand your anger.
Are you effin' kidding? That wouldn't make me angry at all.
THAT would be a very entertaining ticket and make the debates must-see t.v.
This Sunday on NBC prime time, tune into...
Charles and Ann on the right
.............VS...................
Hillary and Michelle Obama (if F.U.'s crazy OP prediction comes true) on the left.
I never endorsed Ann ...........crabapple.

I wouldn't expect you to think any differently.
Take a poll of voters between the ages of 18-45 and ask them what they think about a 69 year old in one of the most stressful occupations you can have.
Bitch.
Yes, I am old, old as dirt. I can relate to other old, very capable and smart people.
Like I'd ask for guidance from an 18 yr. old. Hahaha!

So, Ted Cruz got trolled like a red-headed stepchild all over the internet after announcing his presidential campaign yesterday.
BUT, he did a television interview on CBS this morning and I think he probably wrangled himself up a couple of sure votes with this deep and patriotic admission:
"Music is interesting. I grew up listening to classic rock, and I'll tell you sort of an odd story," Cruz said. "My music tastes changed on 9/11."
"On 9/11, I didn't like how rock music responded, and country music collectively, the way they responded, it resonated with me, and I have to say, it just is a gut-level -- I had an emotional reaction that says, 'these are my people,'" Cruz added.
So inspiring.
I wonder if he played this little diddy for Congress when was he was facilitating their government shutdown (and paid vacations) last year.

He is a fuckin' idiot.
I'd be delighted to debate anyone in here who believes differently.
It's a crying shame people can't be stuck with exactly who they vote for. I'd vote for that!

How can he say any of that with a straight face and sincere manner. He sounds ludicrous.

I want to read what Donovan says about this. Ted's experience sounds a little like behavior modification to me.

Kidding aside, I think Charles Krauthammer is smart. He won't run (or roll), but he would be a better choice than some who will likely be putting their running shoes on.
Mr. Krauthammer has assigned victory odds for the Republican nomination, as follows:
Marco Rubio: 3 - 1
Scott Walker: 4 - 1
Jeb Bush: 7 - 1
Chris Cristie: 12 - 1
Mike Huckabee: 15 - 1
Ted Cruz: 15 - 1
Rand Paul: 30 - 1
Carly Fiorina: 50 - 1
Ben Carson: not a shot in hell

The Republicans better get their act together. Ted Cruz, Rand Paul, WTF. You'd think with all the time they've had they would have been grooming someone but nooooo. Ted Cruz, Rand Paul. Jesus.

I think the time has come for Americans to quit settling with the lesser of two evils. We need more than what the two party system has to offer. I think most would agree having more coices wouldn't be a bad thing, but I doubt it would happen any time soon. The two party system generates big money to feed that machine...

I think everyone in here feels that way.
Mention Super Pacs to User and see what happens.

Mention Super Pacs to User and see what happens. It's a shame that the people at the polls encourage people to "just vote with your party." If everybody who wasn't sure or didn't want to vote for the lesser of two evils voted for themselves, it would finally be obvious that the machine runs itself.

Over on the left...the old geezer Biden is also reportedly in.
So, Hillary Clinton will finally formally announce her candidacy on Sunday. She is expected to make the announcement via social media and a video and will then follow up with campaign travel to early-voting states like Iowa and New Hampshire.
In terms of how she fares against other potential and confirmed Democratic hopefuls, she's trouncing them, according to latest polls.
Hillary Clinton 59.7%
Joe Biden 12.0%
Elizabeth Warren 12.0%
Bernie Sanders 5.4%
Martin O'Malley 1.4%
Jim Webb 1.1%
Brian Schweitzer 0%
