Funny enough, that is an accurate statement.
Do those include the âReagan Democratsâ we keep hearing about who havenât voted Democratic in how long? Seems that ship might have sailed long ago. And Barack Obama still won 2 terms in 2 rather easy Electoral College wins.He was just being humble. I think Trump/Kasich (especially in the Rust Belt) would be Hillary Clintonâs worst nightmare. Kasich also is a strong prolife voice, yet appeals to moderates and conservative Dems. He softens Trumpâs Dem created âracist, sexist, bigotâ straw man quite a bit. Makes it look a little Elizabeth Warren wackoâŚand of course Kasich adds experience to the ticket.
Now I donât feel bad about saying that he should have dropped out when Jeb Bush did.
Sad that theatrics takes precedence over common sense. But then I doubt most people even listen to what a candidate says.
He should have, you are right. Of the two, I actually liked Jeb better. I wasnât a great fan of George W., but Jeb seems okay. Iâm sorry he didnât get a better shake this election. Too many Bushes in the garden already, I guess. His lineage was against him for one thing, and he never overcame Trumpâs criticism that he was âlow energy.â I just see him as a calmer person than Trump, and thatâs not bad.Now I donât feel bad about saying that he should have dropped out when Jeb Bush did.
I agree ⌠but I didnât care for everything he did in the race either: a few months ago it became quite clear that Rubio was the favored moderate. Bush, also moderate, instead of accepting that this wouldnât be his year, seemed to make it his mission to take Rubio down â presumably allowing him to take his place, but it didnât work. Instead it turned into a race where no moderate really had a chance.
I think Rubio kind of killed his own chances when he decided to act like Trump, i.e. terribly, foully. The difference is that is who Trump is and people know it. People expected more from Rubio, more dignity. Rubio truly is a man with principles.
Thank you for this. Now it makes sense to me why Rubio took such a hit simply be doing what Trump has been doing all along while Trump only gets more popular. People expect that behavior from Trump. They expected more out of Rubio.
Yeah. Indeed he later regretted how he had acted.
As Trump said âHostility works for some people, it doesnât work for everybody.â
Yep. He had my vote until that.
Yes, I can understand it, and I could forgive Rubio for it. I donât see why most people could not. He was trying to help the country, to save it from Trump.
