God has decreed that American political dynasties decline sharply in suitability for office with each iteration. Call it the George H.W.-George W.-Jeb rule. Quit after the first iteration. Don’t trot out the second one. And, for the love of God, don’t trot out the third. Forgetting that rule harmed the Democratic Party in 2016 and blew up the Republican Party entirely.


So the party currently wallowing in impotent rage was "harmed" in 2016; while the party controlling 2 (if not 3) branches of government, and a majority of state governments was entirely blown up in 2016? :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:

The woman would have to step up her game by at least a factor of 10 to even approach "vapid".

Funny article.  And I agree with all of it.

Same. Without her parents, she'd be doing cosmetic sales at Macys.

People make a bit too much of degrees from Oxford or Harvard or Yale. An ex-girlfriend went through Harvard Law. She said while it was hard to get in (for a non-connected person), her big surprise was that once you were in, they made sure, by any means necessary, that you made it through the program, no matter how much of a knucklehead you were, because dropouts are really bad for advertising.

Pretty much.

The only one that truly worked out was John Adams and John Quincy Adams.

I think the numerous examples of that can be seen in history going pretty far back.

Yep.  Dynasties and career politicians, which is why: Trump.

I don't begrudge them franking privileges, free phone, travel, and IT services and even a modest pension for their services, but when they can vote enormous perks for themselves, it motivates them to hang on forever --or for as long as they can deliver the pork, and the hell with the nation.

Term limits!  And don't give me crap about how their "expertise" and "experience" would be lost after only 2 or 3 terms.

Yes.  Wait till the next major election to see the fallout.
The Trump effect is waning.

Why do you say that it worked? It wasn't enormously popular at the time, right?

It worked because, either though neither one was re-elected, their presidencies weren't seen to be failures and both father and son are both considered to have been extremely able and astute politicians.

I encountered another Chelsea article today.
http://www.nationalreview.com/article/447397/chelsea-clinton-liberal-celebrity-media-pays-homage
While the article claims she's everywhere lately, the only place I've really seen her much is National Review which is rather ironic. They've had 4 articles about her in the past month and this one, explaining how boring she is, managed to be even more boring than its subject.
:facepalm:

As Professor Higgins' friend said about Liza Doolittle, " I think (s)he's got it."
