OK... so Republicans don't care at all that he shows absolutely no respect for their God? Why do they ever think he's going to implement their social conservative agenda? Jeez... he does pay lip service to abortion, and that does scare me (So it probably makes SoCons jump with glee), but it's obvious that he doesn't really care about these issues at all.

These pics make all those attacks on Obama in 08 really rich.
Actually a lot of this election can be stated that way.

I just watched her speech here on HuffPo: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/hillary-clinton-al-smith-dinner_us_58095feae4b0cdea3d869a80?section=

She was funny, witty, and her subtle objections to Trumpism were sharp and delivered with a poise. Yet another excellent contrast between the two candidates.

I got a good laugh out of that one.

Trump has to keep both hands free at all times in case there's a p***y he needs to grab.

I just listened to Trump's speech. I really didn't think it was bad at all or that he was too nasty to Hillary. It definitely got less funny at the end, but I didn't think it was over the top at all.

For a rally, it was tame, but for an Al Smith dinner, it was totally out of order.

His joking about Melania's/Michelle's speech was pretty good though.  I think he does have a sense of humor but he just has the angry troll face on 24/7.

Alex Jones pulled over on the side of the highway so he could breathlessly tell everyone what they just heard on the radio -- that Trump HAMMERED/DESTROYED/ANNIHILATED Hillary at the Jesuit illuminati consortium.

I did think that was his best line.

Guys, Ted Cruz obviously isn't the Zodiac Killer. It's clear from the picture that there was a Kennedy in the room and Ted Cruz was simply trying desperately to repress the Kennedy-killing gene passed down from his father.

Geez.

I thought Trump was "cringeworthingly" awful. His conduct was totally inappropriate.  His narcissism was on full display.

While Hillary's delivery of the jokes was mediocre, trump totally bombed. His remarks were so poorly written and there wasn't even an attempt at humour to couch political attack lines.

But she totally killed it with the serious part of the speech

Telling, that his best joke was at the expense of his wife.

Her Ted Cruz joke is too real. Every Republican I know hates Cruz, and when discussions get political I use it as a way of finding common ground. That, ripping on Sanders, and celebrating the fact that the next President will be from New York

I think he really respects that she went toe to toe with him, AND won, unlike the weak GOP field.
