I find it no recommendation whatsoever to qualify a candidate looking to serve as a United States Senator. Unless one’s objective is to run around the room knocking people down?

I’ve never been a fan of football, and I’ll never completely understand the appeal. It’s nothing but organized brutality to me. I feel for the players who bet their bodies and their health for the chance at wealth and fame from an incredibly violent “game.” Those who love it, well, okay. Enjoy. But big football game days were always a good opportunity to go shopping. Traffics tended to be less of an issue, and you could always find a parking place!

I’m just grateful our son never went out for football. He was “the music kid” in school. He didn’t do football, baseball, basketball, soccer, hockey, whatever. But man could he do guitar!

I mean, I follow football, but I acknowledge that it's one of the few sports that requires all players to wear a FULL SUIT OF ARMOR.

As for Walker, the bigwigs in the GOP will never let him anywhere NEAR the presidential nomination. Or, if he somehow grabs the nomination, he'll be about as successful as Mitt Romney...too many of their racist base will sit at home on Election Day.

Taking a pistol with one round in the magazine, spinning the magazine and putting the gun to your head. 5/6 chance you won’t blow your brains out.

Sorry all gun hobbyists; don’t know much about gun terminology…

if a pistol has 6 bullets and the game is played 6 times, i think the probability of blowing his brains out is 100%?

And I wonder how the others he was playing with fared?

I'm surprised at least one in this motley crew wasn't arrested for mailing anthrax or blowing up pipe bombs!

or propositioning girl scouts for sex.

(5/6)^6. The probability of blowing your brains out is more complicated because it could happen first time or second time or…

Its just not working with independents. We keep pointing out how bad their candidates are but saying we are not them is a losing effort.

Independents only care about crime, borders, freedom from 'wokeness', and China, thats it. Right now these are the buttons Repugs are pushing in VA and what they will push in 2022 and 2024.

We are losing this messaging battle.
