Off the subject but it was on the news that people had put in for their insurance during open enrollment
through the Marketplace but the Marketplace did not put it in the system.
We got screwed! That left us with big bills to pay in Jan.

Back on the subject something about Cruz I don't like.
I don't like Sanders but I was hoping he would beat Hillary!
However, her showing in Iowa did not say much for her.
That old man almost beat her.
That makes it look good for the Republicans whoever gets the nomination.

Rick Santorum drops out
my third choice


Politics - Lovely Linda - 05-02-2016

Rick is supporting Rubio :biggrin:
Why is Christie, Jeb, and Cruz afraid of Rubio?
Jeb has Mommie bragging about him :blah:

My dream contest is Kasich vs. Sanders...but in my heart of hearts, I want Carson vs. Clinton--Carson because he'd drive the Reublican'ts so far the right it would take a generation to recover; Clinton because she'd win and because she is extremely pragmatic. Question: why are working folks so in thrall to the party that's so in thrall to Huge Biz which wants everything their way to the detriment of the working poor? So they can look down on folks who have even less?

Looks like Auntie Hillary has a real fight on her hands. Trump's results are truly worrying.


Politics - CRAZY-HORSE - 09-02-2016

from an outsider's view I think the US needs 'new' ideas and 'vision' to move foreward...

Obama had vision and ideas but I think he was too far out on the limb and that scared people,
it scared them because he wanted to crack old ways with a sledgehammer instead of just trying to chip away at them piece by piece...

which is why I truly think the American people will ultimately vote for an old ace/old values

I think ISIS and the ever increasing threat of terror needs to be near the top of the list...
I think job security and creation of jobs with better pay needs to be up there also...(lets face it, your wages are on average half that of most other Western Countries).

is there anyone actually talking up job growth and wages with a real plan in mind???

this is how I purcieve the candidates from what ive seen on tv down this way:

Sanders...I see him as being stuck in 1963 as a revolutionary
Clinton.....I cannot say anything good about her previous roles in Govt.

Rubio.....trying to be too charismatic, reminds me in some ways of Kennedy(all good looks, no policy))
Christie..his strongest support will come from NY, but didn't a lot of people hate him a few years ago?
Bush.....his family name will passionately divide people(with his name, they've already made up their minds, he'll not win any new fans IMO)
Trump....no worse than any of the others IMO, but he needs to detail policy, not sprout off with the first thing that enters his head

Cruz, Kasich, Fiorina, Carson...ive seen very little of these guys...thus I cannot offer comment

don't criticise my comments, these are the comments of an outsider who can only comment on what our media presents and what I see on CNN/Fox news:
