Far be it from us to decline the opportunity to look at some early 2016 polling numbers after Jeb Bush's tortured not-so-announcement announcement Tuesday. (Anyone else wonder how many consultants he paid to write that Tweet?) Here's the topline: the field is wide open when Republicans are asked to simply name a candidate whom they would like to see nominated, but Mitt Romney and Jeb Bush lead the pack when people are given a list to choose from. First, the results of a Monmouth University poll released Monday: When asked to name who they would like to see as the party’s nominee for president, Republicans and Republican leaning voters volunteer more than a dozen names, with none exceeding 10% support.

  • It Doesn't Matter What Trump Says About Birth Control
    Crooks and Liars, Wednesday - 05/22/2024 - 07:02 AM

    So Trump now claims he does not support a ban on birth control, despite his responses in a television interview earlier yesterday that said he was open to states restricting access to contraceptives. I'm sure his campaign staff was trying to salvage Via the Washington Post: “I HAVE NEVER, AND WILL NEVER ADVOCATE IMPOSING RESTRICTIONS ON BIRTH CONTROL, or other contraceptives,” Trump wrote on his social media platform. His post was a reversal of comments he made in an interview with KDKA News in Pittsburgh when he was asked whether he supported any restrictions on a person’s right to contraception. “We’re looking at that, and I’m going to have a policy on that very shortly, and I think it’s something that you’ll find interesting,” Trump said.

Minority Leader Mitch McConnell was asked about the report last week that Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito had flown a “Stop the Steal” solidarity flag at his house during the period in which the court was considering 2020 election cases.

  • Jared Moskowitz & Jamie Raskin HILARIOUSLY(!) WRECK James Comer
    Crooks and Liars, Wednesday - 05/22/2024 - 05:56 AM

    I PROMISE you that you're rarely--if ever--seen anything as funny in politics as what Reps. Jared Moskowitz and Jamie Raskin do to known purveyor or Russian propaganda, James "Gomer Pyle. In classic GOP fashion, Comer held a hearing on a ridiculous, waste-of-time poltical stunt, holding Attorney General Merrick Garland in contempt (I might do it myself, tbh, for the fact insurrectionists like MTG and Jim Jordan still sit in hearings participating, un-indictedbut I digress).
