This is insane. I kind of love it, but I am also kind of terrified.

Everybody thought Kevin McCarthy was unbeatable, right? But then we actually heard him speak. What are his numbers today? He's dropping out. Why? Because he's un-trustable. But no one would have known any of that had happened had we not fought and made that happen.

Schadenfreude at its finest.
<looks at your sig>
un-trustable heh?

Florida voters give Clinton a negative 44 - 51 percent favorability rating and say 59 - 35 percent that she is not honest and trustworthy.

<snip>

Ohio voters give Clinton a negative 38 - 56 percent favorability rating and say 61 - 33 percent she is not honest and trustworthy.

<snip>

Pennsylvania voters give Clinton a negative 41 - 54 percent favorability rating and say 61 - 34 percent she is not honest and trustworthy.


Trump, the second most unliked and untrusted, beats her in every one of those.

Schadenfreude indeed.

(unless your sig is some kind of joke I don't get, in which case, ignore this post)

The post was clearly a parody of what McCarthy said on Hannity that torpedoed his speakership.

I had heard he was "unbeatable", but I hadn't heard him speak.  I listen to NPR (nearly) everyday, watch a little news on the PBS, I knew of the guy.  Him speaking on Hannity certainly wasn't an everyday headline for two weeks.

...and I still don't get why it would negate me making fun of a Clinton fan for making fun of another politico for being untrustable.

Here is what McCarthy said:
