Different type of evil. Trump could potentially see us all nuked, and is certainly helping erode what remains of the moral fiber of our country. Pence would be a more garden variety sort evil, with various acts against women, minorities, and the environment; but he would likely be much more effective than Trump.

Also, should I stop using the word "minorities" to indicate non-whites? Aren't whites in the minority now?

I'm looking at the articles about the Florida Gators coaches/players receiving death threats and I think that yup, we got the president we deserve.

I'm fully aware that these things have a long history but Jesus Christ how fragile do you have to be to threaten the life of a football player because 'your team' didn't win?

I have no idea what you're talking about, but this sounds like textbook Massachusetts sports fan behavior

McElwain didn't elaborate on the death threats or who specifically received them, but he said he wasn't surprised by them.

Until Afghanistan the longest US conflict was Vietnam. I remember it being an issue in the '92 presidential race that Bill Clinton did not serve for his country. It's interesting to me that there has not been a president who has served active military duty in Vietnam and it is increasingly unlikely there ever will be.

It really is embarrassing what the republicans have offered up for presidential candiadatss in the last 20 years.

McCain was a fine choice but what they did to him with palin. Oof.
