Here's Stephen Colbert with a few suggestions for how the GOP can defeat Hillary Clinton, just in case the whole "brain damage" thing doesn't work out. Gotta get tough -- after all, this isn't the '90s, when the Clintons got a free pass from the Republicans. For instance, maybe they could take a page the
Reince Preibus is proof the GOP is not a meritocracy. I guess I should be happy about it, but the fact that idiot hold manahes to hold onto any power almost makes me feel bad for them. Almost.
In fairness, they did better when Steele was in charge than they did after he left. Seriously....2012 was a disaster for them but Priebus got another term. 2010 was a good year for them, but Steele got shitcanned. I know Steele had other problems and rubbed a lot of people in the party the wrong way, and probably shouldn't have been RNC chair in the first place...but Priebus has been the worst and still has a job.
Unless the GOPpers drag Jeb Bush, kicking and screaming, out onto the platform, they'll be handing it to Hillary, gift-wrapped and with a pretty bow on top. They have nobody else you'd want anywhere near the White House without a visitor's pass.
I differ. Sen Warren is a fine Senator, but a fledgling politician; Madam Secretary is exquisitely connected to the reins of power already. That counts for a lot when there's a contentious agenda to pass Congress, as President Obama knows all too well.
I want OHJB to be Veep again! He's the only man on the planet who could go down in history (already I hear you Wonketteers snickering over "go down") as the VP to both the first black AND the first female presidents!! And also too, 8 more years of OHJB. Not a bad deal for the country.

He might be the Veep pick, as a token symbol of sanity.
Yes, Michael Steele, also known as The Man Reince Priebus Made to Look Both Competent and Decent By Comparison.
