GOP wants to tax less and Dems want to spend more, despite our recurring deficits. We have an over-complicated tax code that encourages inefficiency by trying to control behavior rather than simply raise revenue, and an entitlement system that is on its way towards insolvency--and the only area of spending anyone talks of cutting is in the "discretionary" portion which is an ever-decreasing proportion of the federal budget.<br /><br />And if that's not enough, there seems to be bipartisan support for getting us forever entangled in foreign adventures. <br /><br />So at this point our choice isn't so much "who is going to fix our problems" but "who is going to do less harm relative to the other choices". Depressing, but there it is--and we deserve this, because our leaders are reacting to what they think we want.Brandohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06219319435229314554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-12344764769200450442015-09-29T02:44:21.061-05:002015-09-29T02:44:21.061-05:00Trying to imagine the chaos that might ensue with ...Trying to imagine the chaos that might ensue with Biden as President and a VP less capable than he.<br /><br />Trying to imagine the chaos that might ensue with Biden as President and a VP more capable than he.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13484928263109449531noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-83271148369583021602015-09-28T20:33:43.681-05:002015-09-28T20:33:43.681-05:00Any of the Dem retreads will be a great president....Any of the Dem retreads will be a great president.

Iowa may be first, but how many delegates are there? Same with NH, although it has, historically had a greater impact. Hillary probably won't be indicted, but I would not be surprised if someone "close" to her is. If I were a D I would certainly be embarrassed by the candidates on offer. Of course, Trump is no prize either.khesanh0802https://www.blogger.com/profile/11792377924992548208noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-13426275073239978382015-09-28T18:39:58.032-05:002015-09-28T18:39:58.032-05:00Not much in the way of comments.

That probably means he announces in late October, although it also is possible he will wait for a later collapse and then walk in and take her delegates and win the rest necessary for the nomination.<br /><br />It is possible that Biden is "in the know" about what is coming down the road for Hillary and, if he knows she is likely to be indicted (for example), then he could just sit and wait.

He falls directly into the mold of those labeled as committing sexual assault under the current campus/DOJ definitions. (And there are dozen of videos of such practices floating around). He's dropped out of an earlier race for POTUS due to blatantly plagiarizing a life story. He's an "old, white guy" (even older than Hillary). He has more gaffes than all the fishing boats in Florida.
