Anthony Weiner, just now on Hardball.

1. Nailed it. And he didn't let Toad weasel some GOP talking points in. Love that guy! nt

[Kurovski]

2. Could he pull off the presidency? Dare we hope?

4. I think racism would rear its ugly head once again. I know one guy who voted

for Obama because "at least he's not a goddamn Jew".

I've been gobsmacked at the amount of under-the-radar there apparently was, now on display and even somewhat acceptable to some circles, since Obama's election. I think many of us would be shocked at the degree of anti-Semitism is out there.

My country breaks my heart sometimes.

[Fuzz]

5. Sad, but true. A NY Jew winning the Presidency?

Especially one with Weiner's positions? Wow.

[Kurovski]

6. it's not nice to say...

but attitudes often die along with the death of the individual who holds them.

Are their any breakdowns in age where you see anti-semitism, I've not seen any polls or studies. There must be some.

I see racism of all kinds in the elderly, not so much the younger you go. But I don't know.

[Deep13]

3. Yup. We still seem to think this is all about ideas.

The Rs know it is about getting what their backers want and getting it any way they can.

[TheKentuckian]

7. That was awesome. That thar feller is about something there

[Kurovski]

8. Just saw Dianne Sawyer report on this

she opened by referring to all the "wrangling" in Washington.

She needs a new script writer. "solid Republican obstructionism" would be the accurate reporter's term.

We've never seen such nakedly political obstructionism ever. No.

[Dappleganger]

9. Is it too much to wish for that all of our congress critters fought for us

every day this way?

Even half as much would be better than what we usually get.

[Kurovski]

10. Incorporate.

Become an enormous global bid'ness.

Then they will kill for you.
