Holy shit we’re going to hell in a hand basket.

I just saw the WORST comments on Senator Gillabrand’s FB page when I went to congratulate her on voting for the Iran deal - I thought I was on the page of some Alabama yahoos. Sickening.

Going back in my cave now!!!

Sure they can threaten the career politicians with some retribution, but Carson, Fiorina and Trump don't fall into that category. What are they going to do to them if they don't fall in line?

This could be interesting.

It's meaningless unless it has some teeth, and for that it's the billionaire sugar daddies who'd need to sign, not the candidates.

All it might do is gives other bump to Trump and Carson.
