Jim Webb is a fucking lazy narcissist of a politician.
He was a Republican when it was convenient to be a Republican and then rode the 2006 Democratic waves to the Senate, then decided it was too hard to try and get re-elected when the wind start blowing the other way again in 2010.
In the words of Ned Stark, he served, when serving was safe for his career.
Who cares what he thinks.

WellâŚthere it is for the folks in here who wondered why Webb got zero traction as a Democratic presidential candidate. Heâs not really a Democrat. Glad he left the Senate.

This is a classic case of the media trying to create another anti-Clinton meme. Because no one would know a thing about this had not MSNBC invited Webb, who really has no significance or following, to appear. Webb did not just show up at the studio, asking to appear on Morning Joe. The MJ people made a concerted effort to get Webb because it would drive an anti-Clinton story that they wanted.

Oh bullpucky WebbâŚyou have hopped all over the political map your entire life. âNothing personalâ about Hillary? And then you are supporting a blowhard with no policies except âI am the greatestâ? Please.

âIf there were one piece of advice that I would give Donald Trump, if I knew Donald Trump, it would be, you know, instead of just doing these debates, find one of these issues and make a major policy speech so people can see how youâre going to communicate if youâre president,â Webb said.
Yeah, because snake oil salesmen always provide a list of ingredients so a customer can see what itâs made of. Not going to happen there Jimbo.

The fact that he doesnât find it disqualifying that Trump says he would order the military to commit war crimes says a lot about Webb.

What really disgusting is that Obama bent over backwards to help Webb get elected against Senator George Macacca Allen. I saw the two of them in person when they campaigned together. Never liked Webb then, canât stand him now.

Someone call me when Iâm supposed to care what Jim Webb thinks. He gets his pet issue done in the Senate and calls it quits, then tries to run for president â now this?
And after defecting from the Republican party. Not a good politician, not a good ally, not a good legislator.

In 2008 he also let it be known that he was available to be considered as candidate Obamaâs VEEP pick. Nothingâs fallen his way so there this now.
