    Well, I know quite a few men that would start being more interested in her for that too... (Guys and their girl/girl kink :rolleyes:)
    It would show her human side.

    I can tell you this, no one wants to see it from any other candidate. (Ok, some may want Rubio...that latin thing)
    But please NOT Graham, Christie and Sanders :eek:

    Wait 'til YOU get to be our age. People in their 50s and 60s still have a lot of sex.

    Supposedly, some women are attracted to male politicians as power figures. I guess I never had enough power for that to come into play.

    If she's got a human side it's probably from the same place Buffalo Bill got his...

    Oh, I don't mind if they have sex...screw away, but it's certainly not going to be as titillating as others...people won't want to even visualize.
    But that's the burden of long wisdom, life balances it out by makes most of us less visually sexy to the youth. (but not less sexual)

    But I don't still think people will want to think about those 3 having sex...young or old. ;)

    Trump could be the pro business, low tax rates for investors and corporations, bring back corporate overseas money, fix people's personal finances, and help people start their own business type of candidate. But he just doesn't have the filter to not say things that will piss people off. There is a year left to talk about the problems with the President and his competitors. Why would he start off attacking at all?

    With Trump in the campaign the GOP primary just became a big joke

    Trump is too used to people jumping when he tells them to jump. I don't see his ego being able to handle "Sir, we can't do that without first (going through layers of bureaucracy for approval)."

    As someone suggested in a previous post, the crowded Republican field could hurt the GOP because they don't have one clear strong candidate to get behind early. IMO that's what hurt them in 2012 when Obama was very vulnerable. I try to avoid listening to the conservative loudmouths in the media, but several of them also suggested that too many candidates weakened the GOP in 2012.

    EDIT--On a sort of unrelated note....I've seen photos & videos of Hillary where she appeared quite attractive, and also quite 'meh.'

    It was a joke before he showed up, now it's a three ring circus.

    Sometimes the weather messes with her people-suit. It's kinda like when Romney's programming had a glitch and he'd start commenting on the height of the trees in michigan.

    Trump bump terrifies GOP

    NO, this is the real terror for the GOP...
    That they already have and had supported candidates like this
    And they don't realize it or they encourage it. :rolleyes:

    Ignorance is NOT bliss

    Trump might not be perfect, and he needs new political advisers... But he scares me a whole lot less than some of the other GOP candidates.

    He should have talked about entreprenueship, the American Dream, and owning a small business, working hard and doing good. Talk about fiscal policy, individual finance, tax policy, and have a forum with health care professionals to see what their best ideas are for a national health policy. Bring in the charter school administrators to explain how that type of school system works better and what his education policy would be.

    The issue is, do you think Trump would look happy getting dirty on a farm in Iowa? Probably not, but he should be going to the tractor dealerships, the manufacturers of wind turbines, and other industry in Iowa if he wanted to be serious.

    Maybe he did do some of those, but comments about Mexican immigrants and a fence that exists in most places now, isn't how to start a campaign. I would even say that he shouldn't of even mentioned Obama in his first few speeches.

    Donald Trump is like the GOP's final self-destruct sequence, and no one knows how to stop it.

    Donald Trump and the GOP is one of those situations where you don't know which is the joke and which is the punchline. And the worst part is he thinks he's serious.

    Yeah the way things are going we're going to need a law restricting campaigns to the election year itself otherwise they'll start again as soon as the election finishes...

    I thought he was polling at #2, right after Jeb Bush.

    The Republican candidates all look weak and flawed, but remember, winning the nomination closes the book on all their obvious weaknesses. Anything that was raised against them in the primary is old news and therefore irrelevant in the general election.

    This doesn't apply to incumbent presidents, or to political figures who are already extraordinarily well known, like John McCain or Hillary Clinton.
