"In the 2024 budget Republicans asked for 7.4 billion in earmarks and Democrats asked for 2.8 billion, so you tell me who are the big spenders." Thanks Nikki.

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 217 Posts: 22940 | I might be wrong, but I don't think DeSantis has moved the needle on likeability so far. He seems wound too tight compared to the others. Even Pence seems a little more relaxed, and he's so stiff he's practically without movable joints normally.

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 217 Posts: 22940 | I suspect Hutchinson will be first out. Christie likely never had a chance anyway, but he may hang around a little longer to pound a podium. Not sure if anyone else will go out for a at least another 2 weeks. I don't even know the guy on the end, without seeing his name again. He sounds okay, but I don't think he's going to pick up further support.

| rxwine Member since: Oct 24, 2012 Threads: 217 Posts: 22940 | Ramaswamy is the closest thing to kook on the stage. I can't figure out what his overall demographic will be. I don't see him bringing on any Democrats I know of to vote for him. Have no idea about independents. Maybe he could turn some very young Democrats.

I didn’t watch the debate, but basically followed it on Twitter. Saw a lot of people say he is a good debater, but crazy. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

It seems like Ramaswamy is going for the Trump crowd on the off chance Trump backs out. I need to read a little bit about Tim Scott as I am not familiar with him but he seems likeable. At my age a Life In Prison sentence is not much of a deterrent. |

I'm already taking a stab at his future nickname if he sticks around. Rama Swampy "Trumpsplain (def.) explaining absolute nonsense said by TRUMP. |
