You also conveniently left out that the National Republican Senatorial Committee (the national GOP group that focuses on US senate races) has refused to endorse Stewart, and have said that they won't spend any money on his race.

The people of VA made an odd choice. It seems that "The Republican Party" wants little to do with the guy. It's probably a gift to the democrats in VA, both in the US Senate race as well as downticket.

I think that is part of the point. Also, I conveniently left out every other thought that exists in the universe. You should probably point out those things as well. Here is something else I conveniently left out:

The reproductive activity of the two-toed sloth does not show any seasonality like the three-toed sloth.

That's true, and also funny. But your post was obviously crafted to imply that because a person of low character was nominated in one specific race, that "the Republican Party" isn't what it used to be. The fact that the GOP Senate Committee wants nothing to do with the guy, suggests to me (pretty clearly) that the GOP isn't turning into a party of Corey Stewarts.

Black unemployment is at an all-time low. If Trump is a racist, it would appear that he's not a very good racist. Not like Robert Byrd, whose presence as a democrat in the Senate for 350 years, somehow didn't paint the democrats with the same broad brush you seem willing to paint the GOP with.

No, this isn't about one specific race. It is a trend, which is why Bolling said what he said.

At the State of The Union, which side stood up and cheered low black unemployment, which side sat there with scowls on their faces?

The only trend, is the downward trend of elected seats held by democrats.

And you know exactly what was going on, just like the state of the unions for the last president.
I suppose the republicans sat then because the president was black?

Have you noticed pretty much everything Jim says critical of Dems the Repubs have done just as much of if not more? For as much as he says he despises the President's personality he sure acts quite like him.

No, that is a trend you want to acknowledge. There is also a trend that the majority of American's vote for a Democrat for president. Lots of trends out there we could bring up. Don't get me started on trends in the sloth community. Doesn't mean there is not a trend in the type of candidates nominated in the republican party. There is, as is acknowledge by the former Republican Lt. Gov.

Utterly meaningless, as Trump didn't waste his time in NYC or California because of the electoral college. If it was a popular vote, he would have campaigned differently, and who knows how it would have turned out. I can't say he would have won, you can't say he would have lost.

If you count votes in a way other than the one way which determines the winner, Hilary won. Big whoop.

Show me the evidence that there is a "trend", and not just a few jerks here and there.

"as is acknowledge by the former Republican Lt. Gov"

and that's good enough for you? How do you know that he is qualified to correctly identify what's a trend, and what's not? Answer - you agree with what he said, therefore it's true.

There's no shortage of jerks on my side, no question. Are there more than there used to be? Maybe, maybe not. Just because one guy says so, sure doesn't make it true.

Probably because it takes them three weeks to rub one out
