Yeah - for about 15 minutes. Now the 2016 BS spools up.

This nonsense is 24/7 for the duration. Blow up your TV, throw away your papers, etc.

Hopefully they will wait at least a week.

Not going to miss them for a second... Wish they could actually say what good they will do and how they plan to implement their ideas, not just find everything that is wrong with the opposing candidate...

If they told you what they are going to do (and, just as important, not do) nobody would vote for them. What should have happened a long time ago, is a "None Of The Above" option instead of "Coke or Pepsi?"

I would love for the party thing to go away and they have to make it on their own merits, many would be out of a job..

I also think that Congress shouldn't be a jobs program. The idea of serving wasn't supposed to be a lifetime occupaton.

Yes, the "serving" part has been turned on its head. Even good people get corrupted in DC, all the perks and stuff.

Another thing that would work is to draft people for public positions via lottery. Part of the problem is competent, trustworthy types often avoid politics altogether.

Good afternoon Iowa. Anybody know a good driveline shop around Des Moines? Need a new cardan joint on my front drive shaft. Thanks

If there was a Sadler location, I would have recommended them, but the closest to you is here in Cedar Rapids...

Pretty much, last year replaced the spark plug, belt, paddles and such on the Toro, and it never snowed after that. Should be ready to rock though!
