There was an interesting political cartoon is the national papers today. It showed Mitch McConnell, the Republican Senate leader having a nightmare. His nightmare: The next president appoints Obama as Supreme Court justice.
That is a Republican nightmare.
Sometimes I wonder why people are so upset with Obama. Stock market at all time highs, unemployment the lowest its been in almost 20 years. Not fighting in any major wars. 22 million people have health insurance that did not before ObamaCare. I find it odd that most of the people howling about the government bailing out big companies and banks are driving huge Chevrolet pick up trucks. Without the bail out, they would just have Fords now.
Rubio would probably be OK, but he's not extreme enough for the folks who have split the Republican party.

Some fun facts:
Sure the stock market is up (right now), but most investors attribute that to 'quantitative easing', you know, printing more money.
Unemployment lowest....you know they changed the definition, right? If you're out of work longer than 90 days, you're dropped from the statistic. Look around you. There are more homeless people now than there ever has been. By hundreds-fold. Go to the big cities. It's pathetic.
Not fighting any major wars. Lol. The biggest one is here and it came to us. ISIS.
And:
Median household income is down by 5k or so.
Home prices have climbed.
Gas prices were LOWER than they are right now back in 2008.
Government debt was 50%. Under Obama it is now 75%.
Americans on food stamps ALMOST DOUBLED. it is now at 46 million. That's almost 1/6th of Americans.
Economic growth at a paltry ~2% for the entire administration.
National Debt was ~10 Trillion......under Obama it is now >18 Trillion. The answer? It's easy! Just print more money!! At some point the house of cards WILL collapse.
Racial division has never been so high. Not even in the 50's and 60's. And I don't think most 'BLM's' are Republicans.
And Trump is doing exceedingly well. As of today, he has 82 delegates to Cruz's 17 and Rubio's 16. If Donald wins the nomination, he will decimate 'Hillary, the lying politician.'
Good news? Gun sales are waaayyy up under Obama. He is the greatest gun salesman in America.
Feeling better now?
