Ryan to young R's: we must keep the senate because... Bernie Sanders!

What a dumbass!

I'd like to thank Paul Ryan for encouraging all young voters to go to the polls because Bernie Sanders will head the senate budget committee if Dems take control of the senate, and house R's won't be able to get their bills to ...gulp, President Clinton.

Dems should use the speaker's words in an ad aimed at college-aged voters!

I'm drooling about the possibilities of Bernie and Liz chairing committees and making life miserable for Repubs everywhere.

Well I'm not impressed. Except for his cowardice. Kinda, sorta almost, but not quite endorses Trump, but deplores his speech and behavior at the same time. That's called having your cake and eating it too. Allows maximum deniability to any quarter that complains. Come Nov 9, I predict that his karma will lose him the gavel. Major candidate for GOP scapegoat. The alt-rights are tuning up he bus to throw him under.
