Transcript:
Game of Thrones. The House of Clinton and The House of Bush prepare for war. Jeb Bush: Batten down the big donors! Summon the skull and bones! Brink on the dark money! Ready the Rove! Hillary Clinton: Circle the Super PACs and the Sacred Order of the F.O.B.! Call up the spin wizards! Prepare to unleash the Carville! Servants: Deja doo-doo.

It’s pretty annoying that the only candidates “anointed” (another medieval term) by the Establishment have as their main credentials (1) name recognition (what, we have the attention span of a goldfish?), (2) overweening familial ambition, and (3) money. Anything in there about competence? I don’t think so.And honestly, all jokes aside, Jeb is definitely the most capable member of this generation of his family (low bar, I know), and Hillary is smart and tough, but, again, this is IT?I want Warren to stay in the Senate and push the Democrats back towards being…well, Democrats instead of GOP-Lite, so this is what we’re left with?
