Think it does here. unfortunately, i think it does. unfortunately, i don t think she is running to the right. i think she s standing on the right. i think she s the place everybody else is trying to run. her real problem here is, you know, this is the party of family values that there s not a lot of value shown for her own family. that s the real issue. on top of not being, you know, quite so progressive on lgbt issues. kevin, it strikes me when we hear the republicans, you know, attacking president obama time and time again on this issue, but as goldie points out, this is reality. american families come in all different kinds of configurations and it feels like, you know, they have haven t figured out how to deal with it and they attack obama to kind of get out of it. right. because the families have always been in our country. right? there have always been unfar ried people, single moms, interracial couples. it is not anything new but the difference here is that now it s in the p ....
Electors sustained a republican majority in the house. he s the one with the mandate. they sustained that majority through gerrymandering. if you look at how many votes house democrats got across the country, they beat republicans in terms of the sheer number of popular votes in the house. and so really the house gop is nothing more than a collection of local party officials. paul ryan s ideas, they did try that in a national election. it s one thing as goldie points out, ger ji manderred congressional election, not the same. in a national election, the paul ryan ideas went down in flames just as they did frankly the first time he proposed the ideas when a majority of americans didn t support them. i know the republicans don t like facts and they don t like data that doesn t go along with their narrative, but here we ve got 60% of americans are perfectly fine letting those bush tax cuts expire for the wealthiest and that includes 63% of independents. so the numbers are just not the ....
Scrutiny is the actions of the police department. the fact that they gave zimmerman such white glove treatment. they allowed the evidence to be contaminated themselves didn t preserve it. and they made this decision based against what would seem to be all of the, at least, apparent evidence not to arrest and prosecute. i think that really suggests a level of kind of corruption potentially inside the police department. and that s why i think you have to federal government under 242. the federal civil rights statute. and then as goldie points out, i think this starts to become a to kill a bird moment. it reminds us that the conversation about race that we should have been having is long, long overdue. if nothing else, this will begin to spur that. goldie, what do you think of the week as it has progressed? and the way surrogates and family members of mr. zimmerman have seemed to adjust the story. last night his brother was on a cnn broadcast. and he said that the conflict ....
Recognition happens to be. and i understand that it s growing. i think at the end of the day, he has a real opportunity, but he has to do it now and he has to do it fast. christina, has christie become the east coast version of sarah palin? where he goes from appearance to appearance, fishing more compliments and asking for contributions? i mean, i don t think so. i would not compare the two of them. i would make a comparison between what happened with governor perry getting in the race. this is someone who said he wasn t going to run for president, then he changed his mind and got in, and a few weeks before he did, there was this big clamoring for another type of candidate in the race, and you re seeing this again. but what perry has learned very quickly is you re not just going to come in and skate. and christie would certainly be attacked by all of his rivals who think that they are on track to the nomination. so this is a field that may well expand, but as goldie points out, it ....
