| Union Leader (NH) Endorses Klobuchar For Dem Pres. Primary |
| 2020-01-27 |
| My god - this newspaper's been half lefty for at least a decade now. I could never imaging William Loeb or even Nackey Loeb (former publishers back when it was the Manchester Union Leader) endorsing chumps from the Democratic party, especially someone as vapid and uninspiring as Captain Salad Comb. [NH Union Leader, via Drudge] - If you are a New Hampshire voter who thinks Donald Trump is doing a good job, you can probably sleep in on primary day, Feb. 11. Try as they might, his Republican challengers have not made a dent in the President’s popularity within the party here. If you are an independent or Democrat, however, yours may be one of the most consequential votes ever cast in a New Hampshire Primary. If there is to be any realistic challenge to Trump in November, the Democratic nominee needs to have a proven and substantial record of accomplishment across party lines, an ability to unite rather than divide, and the strength and stamina to go toe-to-toe with the Tweeter-in-Chief. That would be U.S. Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota. She is sharp and witty, with a commanding understanding of both history and the inner workings of Capitol Hill. Trump doesn’t want to face her. It won't matter who Trump faces; they're gonna get schlonged. |

| #7 My feeling on senators sitting on the jury of the impeachment is that any declared presidential candidate should have to recuse themselves from the trial. They clearly have a conflict of interest. |

| #6 Another Minnesota candidate. Pardon me if you're from Minnesota but I can't help remembering Hubert Humphrey and Walter Mondale, socialists in their hearts, all too willing to go along with the likes of Lyndon Johnson and Jimmy Carter. The results were always regrettable. |

| #5 Why anybody thinks she's a feasible candidate for anything but a throat punch is beyond me. What a dislikeable POS |

| #4 Dem Sen. Klobuchar Brags About Fighting Trump With Impeachment Is Helping Her On Campaign Trail Ya, right Amy. Of course the Moscow on the Mississippi Twin Cities Pravda media won't report a shit thing your ass hat pie hole spouts.  Klobuchar, who launched her campaign in February, raised $5.2 million in the first quarter, nearly $4 million in the second quarter and $4.8 million in the third quarter. |
