Mugsy’s Electoral Predictions (2016 edition)

There are 12 states labeled “toss ups”. But really, there are only four, and Trump’s only path to victory is if he sweeps them.

15 Years After 9/11. Doesn’t Anyone Know How to End a War? A 21st Century “Marshall Plan”.

Trump is the Living Embodiment of Plato’s ‘Republic’

How Does One Support Hillary without rewarding DNC misbehavior?

Pro-Gun Supporters ALREADY Told Us They Don’t Need an Assault Weapon to Stop One

“If *I* had been in that (latest mass shooting location), *I* could have taken that guy out!” You’ve heard them too I’ll bet. Those chest-beating low-brow far Right gun nuts telling us how if THEY had been there with THEY would have taken their newly modified guns with the best upper parts for AR-15 rifles when […]

Is Hillary a Closet Republican? Her record would suggest so.

It’s a case I’ve been making since she ran against Obama in 2008: Hillary has this unfathomable, almost desperate, need to seek the approval of Republicans. Her first instinct on every issue is to align with Conservatives… especially on issues of National Defense… only to reverse course later when disapproval from Democrats proves inconvenient. Honestly, I believe […]

Claims Hillary Has Better Chance of Winning Not Only False, but now moot amid GOP chaos

For months now, many Clinton supporters have been citing Hillary’s chances of defeating Trump in the General election in November as their reason for voting for her. They just don’t believe that an admitted “Democratic Socialist” can win the election. As far as I’m aware, there has never been an official poll taken of Clinton supporters […]

Republicans Are Right. Delay nomination of Scalia’s successor

I can’t remember the last time I said this and may never say it again, so listen up: REPUBLICANS ARE RIGHT. We should delay replacing Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia until after the election. I know how heretical that may sound, but bear with me for a moment while I explain and you may even agree. The magnitude […]
