re: #268 Targetpractice
Jeb isn’t a “moderate,” he’s just a more marketable extremist. Unless being for the abolition of the federal minimum wage is now a “moderate” position. Of course, one could argue he’s saying this crazy shit for the same reason that Willard did in 2012, to which I clear my throat and direct the class to what happened to Willard at the polls. No, if Jeb wins the nomination, it will be for the same reason that Willard won it and McCain before him: The rest of the crazies in the field split the base vote so badly that he could eek out several 2nd and 3rd place finishes that kept him in the race as the others fell flat on their faces.
Jeb also thinks it should be legal to discriminate against gay people.
