Johnson / Weld look terrible on 60 mins. last night. That probably was there last chance to make a positive impression on America.

I didn't think it was so bad. They looked like guys you would like to have living in your neighborhood.

Sure, as a neighbor, not running our Country. I have a lot of neighbors who don't possess the knowledge and charisma needed to get stuff done in Government, just like these two clowns showed us last night.

Both of them have been successful state governors. Weld, running as a moderate Republican in heavily liberal Democrat Massachusetts, did so well in his first term that his re-election got 71% of the vote. Johnson started in business with a small construction company, made it big, and then funded his own campaign to overcome early opposition by establishment New Mexico Republicans. In his 2 terms as governor, he fought the legislature's spending with vetoes and line vetoes, effectively moving money into education funds.
 
Fair enough. They seem reasonable, but it's really tough for me to get over GJ's two glaring fuck ups. The "no actual crimes were committed" line and what's Allepo are tough to recover from.

The real crime in the background of the Wall St collapse was Congress gutting financial regulations that had kept the economy solid for 70 years. As for the Aleppo brainfart, he admittted it as an error and did not shirk responsibility.

There were many reasons for the financial crisis but criminal fraud and misrepresentation was certainly near the top of the list.

And you're right he did own that mistake and didn't try to backpedal much, so that was actually a refreshing change from what we normally get in politics. My problem was he didn't know what Allepo was to begin with.

So your committed to voting for a pathological liar, good for you.
Sometime knowledge and charisma is nothing more than arrogance and conceit which pretty much sums up Clinton & Trump.
Humble and unassuming would be a refreshing change....
