    If Michael Bennet had the political instincts (New Dems are sometimes too new for me.-ed.) and the courage, he'd jump on this message:

    Mitch McConnell is keeping a Supreme Court seat vacant for Donald 'grab them by the pussy' Trump

    Mitch McConnell is a real sick bastard. For 237 days now, he’s spat on the Constitution by making up mythical rules that say that the nation’s first black president isn’t allowed to fill a vacancy on the Supreme Court in an election year.

    He’s undertaken this unprecedented blockade in the service of keeping Antonin Scalia’s seat open so that McConnell’s preferred presidential candidate can pick a replacement come next year.

    That preferred candidate is Donald Trump, who has now confirmed for us that he believes in sexually assaulting women:

    “I moved on her like a bitch (What in God's name is that?-ed.),  but I couldn’t get there. And she was married. (I'm so old I remember something called "Family Values Republicans".-ed.)

    “And when you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything.”

    OK, America. You all made Donald Trump a star. But now look. 

    “Grab them by the pussy. You can do anything.”

    One more piece of advice for Bennet: quit trying to be friends with Cory Gardner. He'a against everything you say you are for. You can have a working relationship and still not be friends, still not worry about hurting someone's feelings. 

    We all have to do it every day. It's called life.

    Lots of calls among fellow Republicans for Trump to step down and let Pence be the nominee. Great. Our party goes from a con-man & charlatan as our nominee to a far right wing religious zealot masquerading as a moderate & reasonable person.

      I can't help but think even Prince's religion is fraudulent. During debate he no sooner finished talking about his strong religious views and then resumed lying. The very next words from his mouth were documented lies.

    So Cory Gardner finally joined those calling for Trump to step down as nominee.

      our junior senator is such a courageous leader when it comes to making the tough calls….

        Just how many endorsements for the same office does one get? First Rubio, then Cruz, then Drumpf. Now it's  "I'll write in Pence"? Besides, the Senator’s vote wouldn’t be counted – that deadline (for a write-in) passed long ago.

    Chaci speaks… 

    Grow up ladies, this is how men talk when you're not around.
