jericho Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 He is very super educated. Maybe one of those that are so smart there stupid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Getslow Posted January 11, 2017 Share Posted January 11, 2017 Sessions definitely has a past that he should be embarrassed about, but the type of politics that Booker played here will probably come back to haunt him. He played this up for short-term gain but probably lost some long-term battles in a very closely divided senate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ggclfan Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 All this is with Booker is his coming out party. If this goes well for him and I have my doubts, he will be groomed to be a strong Dem contender in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jumper_Dad Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 The two guys testifying after Booker were excellent for Sessions. Both have worked around and directly with him in Alabama and probably have a better feeling about the true Jeff Sessions than Booker does. Booker is using political votes to cast Sessions in a bad light for his own personal gain. FWIW Booker was less than inspiring or convincing today. Read his remarks and left, "testified" but wasn't questioned in anyway. Not really testifying the way I see it, just taking an unchallenged shot at Sessions.

The Professor Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 I may be wrong but my guess is Booker is trying to get his name in the headlines as much as possible to build momentum for a run for the White House in 2020. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PurplePride92 Posted January 12, 2017 Share Posted January 12, 2017 So you don't think or care about anything else...only Trump? Cory Booker is still a nobody at the moment. Why is the right so worried about him? Trying to get ready for the 2020 Presidential campaign already? Seriously, Trump takes office in a week and I should be concerned about the real Cory Booker? Better yet, I should learn about the real Cory Booker from the right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
