The Clown Car

Watching the first Republican debates was freaking amazing. I can't imagine how such a collection of bad people gets put together in one hall.

You have some dopes like Rick Perry. Several narcissists are pushing along, including Donald Trump and Mike Huckabee. Sociopaths like Snot Walker,  Ted Cruz from Canada, Carlie Fiorina and Chris Christie elbow for room. Rand Paul offers a kind of teenager's dimwitted ideology. In place of Bush and Rubio we see empty suits. Gov. Kasich of Ohio attempts to be human, and, finally, there is a surgeon who doesn't know who the cabinet officers are. You'll find a much better assortment of people working at a Safeway or teaching at a high school. It's incredible, really.

The males tried to seem macho, but not one of them objected when Donald Trump spewed his coarse attack on Ms. Kelly.  They remained silent, waiting for the polling. No balls at all. Do you think Ronald Reagan or Jimmy Carter would have stood there in cowed timidity?
