Putin's "administration" (I call it that loosely, because Putin runs everything) is entirely corrupt. But the difference is that Russians don't hide their corruption or pretend they are righteous. After living there for a number of years, I can speak from first hand experience with their government. The Obama administration is just as corrupt, but pretends it has takes the high road. If I had to live in a culture of corruption, I'd prefer the overt one where the rules are stated and clear to the snakes hiding in the grass.
sure... if she can figure out how to get the 60% of the people who vote and would never vote for her to stay home.
The republicans are doing their best to do that for her. It's one of the few things they are good at.
I suspect the establishment Republicans know that is what they are doing. It is a fine line they dance on.
What is there not to love about "The Donald"? (His hair maybe?) He's more entertaining than Ross Perot, or Sarah Palen even. And, if not quite as lovable as Berlusconi, he's every bit as colorful. He's got way better golf courses than any of them. The only mortal that can surpass him is "The Donald" himself. (Is that even possible?) He's not afraid to speak his mind, such as it is. He's no flippity, floppity, flip flopper! That's for sure. That's for darn sure! And If only the U.S. Senate (and House, and Supreme Court, and Goldman Sachs, and the U.S. Arms Industry, and American Pharmaceutical Corporations, of course) did not exist, he could even "bring back our jobs, bring back our manufacturing, bring back our military and take care of our vets", if he were President. But there is much work to be done! He needs to put first things first! He needs to get out of the clown car, don some pink tights, grab a baton, get to the front, and lead that parade.
