'gimme putt' is that a sex thing?

Sounds nasty, not 'good nasty' life affirming like Tina Turner but 'creepy necrophilia nasty' like Taylor Swift.

I would vote for Biden over Hillary, if that was the choice. The newest info about the email controversy has me really having a hard time maintaining respect for Ms. Clinton - and honestly in my gut I think this country should be done with Bushes and Clintons.

Something that I'm very frustrated about is the way the news media - even the 'liberal' NPR - keeps dismissing Bernie as a serious candidate, despite his strong showing in polls and the large crowds he is drawing on the campaign trail. They acknowledged Howard Dean as a serious candidate when he ran (until the scream), so WTF?

Joe Biden comes from a working class background, had solid liberal credentials and years of political experience. I think he will also get enormous sympathy from voters given his son's recent passing from cancer and his honesty about reflecting deeply on a run for office. I think Hillary will ruin her chances if she goes attack dog on him. Just my .02.
For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

yeah the media isn t giving Bernie the time of day. they are mostly in the tank for the Dem party, formerly for hill Clinton, but lately for joe biden

Bernie has earned at least a semblance of the attention trump gets.

I m not for him obviously, but I still believe that the media should present the truth, and the truth is that Bernie is big news.

Well for one Bernie isn't running a sideshow like Trump and for two unless the Republicans end up running one of the bozo candidates he has zero chance at winning the middle and that isn't even a given in a match against Paul.

How'd that third party thing work out for Nader in 2000? :loon

yeah, but he's Peron without his better half (better being a relative term of course, but there's no musical called Juan).
