BTW you didn't answer my question about Kansas's governor's policies.

I don't live in Kansas. But, from what I've read about it, the press has grossly exaggerated the issues. The public schools had a bad funding policy that lead to lots of money going to sports and grounds keeping and greatly hurt low income schools when children transferred out. That was fixed, but a couple of Sibelius appointees threatened the entire school system over less than 1% of the funding. It was pathetic. The budget has been decimated by the ACA. Go to government spending websites and see how the medicare/medicaid and health care spending went up the same amount the state had short falls over the last few years. Brownback's policies have done very well. The press has made a lot out of non-issues.

I am glad she's gone. The more Rhino's we can purge, the better. If Trump is doing one thing fruitful, it's scaring off the left wing nut jobs in the Republican party.

Yeah, how dare she ... let her conscience guide her instead of hard line partisanship. She's a big, gray, horned monster, she is !

Nope. They are the left wing nut jobs.

You think Kasich is a left wing nut job ...? Do you have any idea how conservative he is ...?

I don't think there's such a thing as a real GOP gubernatorial candidate in California any longer. Just RINOs

The Democrat slots are all sold out. If you want to run you have to run as a Republican.

It's not funny how big business is supporting Hillary, it's expected. She is a tried-and-true Corporate Politician, bought and paid for, Republocrat status-quo candidate. Corporations will LOVE her.

Actually, they're backing Clinton because she's the only candidate in this election that for sale. It's like going shopping for a watermelon and the only ones available are rock hard, seedless sorry-ass imitations of a melon, so you buy the crappy melon and hope that it's not horrible, just kinda bad...
 
There are those of us who are going to pull the lever for Hillary and then go right back to hoping the GOP comes to its senses. I'm solidly in the Jim Webb/Bush/Kasich camp, but was very willing to vote for Rubio if it came down to it. That hasn't changed for me. I just don't want to be involved in a Trump or Cruz Republican Party.

So a "centrist Republican" from California backs Hillary and people think that it's news. She's almost the very definition of a RINO (Cal. is only one of of maybe 4 states where she'd be considered a conservative) and people think it's big deal that she's backing Clinton...

Ah the old "no true republican would live in California" fallacy.

Well, honestly, my kind of Democrats are a dying breed. It wasn't that long ago that I was comfortable and confident with both parties. But our numbers shrank dramatically in the last several years. I thought the GOP looked quite healthy in being able to absorb a number of us, despite the Tea Party populism. But it wasn't meant to be, apparently. We don't look at Hillary as a moderate, we still see her as a liberal. I know that the national party has drifted quite a ways from that mark, but that's where we are. So, for us, Hillary is a reluctant, but ultimately necessary pick. We certainly wouldn't have taken solace in a Bernie Sanders.

If it's true that an investigation into the Clinton crime family foundation would bring down much of Washington, this could be the reason for these 'endorsements'

That's SOP in the tech industry where foreigners can be paid far less than native citizens.

Maybe you should criticize the free trade of labor instead of the market's optimization within the laws.

I don't see any children at Trumps rally, or parents encouraging them to swear or use vulgarities. Hypocritical wouldn't you say?

So hysterics because someone refuses to support Trump. Typical.

Y'all really aren't going to take it well when he loses, are you.

Some people are wise, and some are otherwise.

Let's walk through this... S L O W L Y... So you can grasp it.

She was a VP prospect for McCain... So it's not just "someone".

She was a VP prospect because she was supposedly a Republican and believed in republican values.

She didn't just shut her mouth, bite her tongue or produce some similar behavior.

No, no, no... She came out and said she would... Help elect Criminal Hillary.

Criminal Hillary is a Socialist who has proven her love of all things government. She's Obama with a vagina... Just as vile and just as incompetent. As a republican, you just don't do this... Unless you're not a republican. And Meg obviously isn't one.

As stated... This election has been good for ending the careers of many RINO's.

Sayonara Meg.
