The NY Repubs must be horribly dysfunctional if they could not find a candidate better than this. This is who they want representing them? You'd think the party machine would follow up on references before letting someone so dishonest represent them.
- mbg721 4y agoRepublicans have never been very good at machine-politics; their voters largely believe it shouldn't exist, but it has to exist in order for them to win, so you get sausage-makers like McConnell (who everybody hates) running everything.

- mbg721 4y agoNah, Democrats are really good at party discipline. "Vote blue, no matter who" was only recently said out loud, but has been effectively the "You're not one of...them...right?" vote for a long time. Republican voters tend to disavow the party, because the social conservatives and the libertarians and the genuine rich-and-don't-care establishment can never agree.
