Menendez in no way changes that reality and if anything the Menendez conviction demonstrates that unlike the GOP the Democrats are the party of law and order. Once again, Joe’s polling has never been good but he and the Democrats keep winning elections and getting stuff done. And polling this far out from the election has not been predictive. Joe isn’t going to quit so enough, already!

He let us down, but, you know, he lost. So I never liked him as much after that because I don't like losers. He's a hero because he was shot. I like people who weren't shot, okay. I hate to tell you. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=541Cg2Jnb8s&t=100s So the Republican National Convention got underway yesterday, capped by a cameo appearance by Donald Trump, with bandaged ear.
