    That was my point, there's so many names floating around for this position. Weird.

    Mitt said; that Trump was unqualified for the job. Not the loyalty Trump is looking for although I doubt there's a chance in hell mitt would work for Trump.

    See - soon we will have enough candidates for the position that it can only be settled by a weekly elimination, after they have been put through a challenge of some sort.
    The ratings will be great.
    If you also agree that an animals suffering should be avoided rather than encouraged, consider what steps you can take.

    So you can answer my question above... Can you give me a brief rundown on potential SOS candidates for like the past 5 or 6 candidates. and who and how many they took into consideration?

    Do you think it's funnier that Trump would appoint "lying" Ted Cruz or "one of the dumbest candidates in history" Mitt Romney'?

    Me neither and it may not play well hiring him for Hillary's position after Trump attacked her for her shenanigans.

    He wasn't kind to Carson, and look at how close they ended up being. This doesn't mean that everything said was Aok though, and that fences wouldn't need to be mended. I would rather see that be done with Cruz, personally. Politics is a brutal business. Picking out phrases like you did... look at the amount of phrases that were stated against or about Trump - and he's going to be the next president - so obviously we can get past these things.

    Sometimes I wonder if political foes understand when the battle is over, it's just a game.

    Actually considering they all showed up to meet, I'd say the above is rhetorical?

    What was wrong in this campaign was the stuff regarding wives, fathers, and such. Attacking the candidates is expected, the families? Not so much.

    Listening to Kellyanne Conway on O'Reilly. She said basically that, 'Not everyone meeting will be in cabinet or a high adviser. Mr. Romney has a wide range of experience. Obviously while he ran for President last time and did not win, there were many things he said that turned out to be prescient. Really makes me wonder if Trump is at least reflecting on all he has intimated regarding Russia?
