    Yep, it sure is. This crop of Republican candidates is even more of an embarrassment than the 2012 offering. The Part of No, the Stupid Party, is imploding and no one knows how to fix it. For what it’s worth, Kasich really stands out as the only adult in the room, but that’s not going to matter since the base is spoiling for this kind of brawling politics. Might as well put ’em all in a cage, lock the door, and nominate the one left standing.

    The reason the Republicans believe that about Obama goes something like this:1. As a good Chrisshun, I only wants to hear th’ truth.2. “Bay-Rack Obama is th’ most divisive president in history!” is what I wants to hear.3. Therefore it is the truth.4. Hallelujah!

    The rest of the world is afraid another evil republican like W will become president and start another war. They are already making plans to drop out of the American market. Republicans, destroying America as if it was their business to.

    “Hillary is the clown show.”Even at her worst, HRC is soooooo much better than what the GOP wants to give us. (with the possible exception of Kasich)

    The right wingers have withdrawn from reality and cannot recognize their own insanity.

    The republican debates are by far the best reality show I have ever watched; they are obnoxious!

    The ONLY good point I heard so far was from the “Donald” expressing that we spent Two Trillion Dollars to destabilize the Middle East! That’s not counting the Millions of people murdered, disfigured and displaced because of ‘LIES’ generated by Bush and Cheney.

    BTW: The world Trade Centers DID come down under their Watch!!!!!!! JEB! you’re are dead, get out while you can.

    They should hire Maury Povich as a moderator.

    “I notice liberals like Kasich. That’s telling.”I do not know about liking Kasich, or about how liberals feel about him, but as a moderate, he does not seem, to me, as out of touch with reality.

    As @Dagnabbit is showing you, the reason there are no adults leading the GOP now, is because their supporters can’t communicate like adults either. His name says it all.

    According to Brookings poll there was a president who was more divisive or “polarizing” – that was W. Obama was the 18th out of 43 presidents (right below Bush Sr). Lincoln and Washington made first and second. Buchannan and Harding at the bottom. Clinton is #8, Regan #11 and W comes in at 35th – right below Richard Nixon. Keep screaming righties – at least you are good at something.

    Let Cruz and Trump take to the field like Hamiliton and Burr, with 9mm Glocks. Or grenades for MAD on a small, appropriate scale?

    Hmm, VX or Sarin might be even more appropriate.

    I miss the clarity and sanity of Ron Paul, Perot, or maybe Charlie Manson.

    America needs to give all these guys a “time out”, for maybe a decade? It’s ridiculous.

    ^btw: Kasich does seem the only adult left in the room.

    6 year olds show more decorum and sense than republican leaders.
