Still and forever a mucker. Rep. Pete “the Mean One” King, fresh from his stint as an unlicensed medical expert, explains his ongoing “primary campaign” to USA Today:
Nobody thinks Rep. Peter King is likely to be the GOP nominee in 2016, possibly not even Peter King. But the odds are better for Sen. Rand Paul, and that’s why Peter King is in New Hampshire, again and again and again.
“I don’t want the field to be dominated by people like Rand Paul,” King says. “Rand Paul is an isolationist. …This is an extremely dangerous world. We do not have the luxury of hiding. We cannot retreat within our borders. And I terribly resent his implication that the U.S. is somehow the cause of aggression around the world.”
And then there’s Sen. Ted Cruz, another potential 2016-er. “Ted Cruz is a nihilist,” King says. “The whole concept of shutting the government down and also this dogmatic opposition to any type of compromise,” he says. “I can bargain, I can negotiate, I can move the ball down the field.”
So yeah, King, 70, a New York Republican, is thinking about running for president…
… [W]hy spend two years eating chili dinners in New Hampshire? Why not? There is little downside for an elected official to give talks to an appreciative audience of fellow party members. It makes proto-candidates feel good to be considered presidential timber and New Hampshire voters get to fulfill their jealously guarded mission of looking over every person who has ever aspired to be commander in chief.
Though Republicans have vowed to avoid the 23-debate marathon of the 2012 primaries, King could well get into a New Hampshire debate, push for the interventionist foreign policy he believes in, and have an effect….
So instead of 23 debates with 8 or 9 candidates at the first few, maybe we’ll get 8 or 9 debates with 23 candidates. Sounds like a winning strategy! — for us Democrats.

A quick OT, but speaking of NH. There was an epic smackdown of the former far right wing Speaker Bill O’Brien this week. He’s the raving tea-bagger caught on tape saying that voting should be made difficult for young people and college students because they have no life experience and therefore are stupid and liberal.
The Republicans won back the NH House by several dozen seats and O’Brien was expected to be a shoo in. However the Democrats were one step ahead and worked with a more sensible Republican and ended up getting some more Republican defections after O’Brien called for a public ballot so that he could identify his betrayers for retribution, which was his stock-in-trade when he ruled in 2010-2012. That was enough to get a few more R’s to vote for the moderate along with every Democrat.
So NH has been saved from the wrecking ball of this bitter shitheel and the state Republican Party is in turmoil calling for war against one another. Hopefully it will turn into the Donner Party before it is all done.

Good evening.
So I’m cleaned out my car in preparation for trading it in for a new car and I am genuinely embarrassed at the amount of fast food french fries and funyuns droppings I found! Also too found this old cheap ass bottle of lotion and it can’t be for nobody but my little sister Jessica who has exzema and uses “grease” to alleviate her dryness.
I just cleaned out trash and papers. I still haven’t cleaned surfaces or vacuumed. I’m thinking all I’m gonna do is vacuum and clean as much of surfaces as I can. I might clean the carpet but the stains are pretty old and bakes in so? I’m not paying beaucoup money just to clean the carpet. I’ma clean the seats clean the mats and attempt to clean the carpets if I can.
Oh yeah and I fixed the seat belt maddie over extended. I remember that u can adjust the headrest in the backseat and they can be removed. Wah la (lol) … seat belt unlocked!
Aside from the carpets once I clean her up a bit. The only things on it that might decrease the value…I never fixed the trunk door so it doesn’t open, the maintenance aside from oils changes are definitely due, and I never replaced the engine shield thing that broke 2 weeks ago (in fact, that’s why I finally decided to get a new car)
Other than that, all the electronics work. all lights and interior stuff works. Tires just 1 year old. Transmission should only be half the age of the car and I’ve had no accidents in this car. Coupla nicks and scratches from being a 10 year old car, but NOT many

Also too, Also too, tomorrow afternoon, I’ll be going to two dealerships and test drive a total of 4 cars (maybe 5?). I’m looking at the Hyundai Sonata and Santa Fe Sport. I kinda also wanted to check out the Hyundai Genesis, but it may be out of my price range. I’m also looking at the Mazda 6 and CX5.
So here’s where I am. I have pre-financing with a company I trust and for which I have used before. I’d prefer not to have my credit run again, with my credit, the pre-financed APR is actually in the lowest portion of the range I expected and that I’ve been quoted in the past. I don’t expect the dealership to be able to match it or go any lower and I need no more dings on my credit score.
Anyway, I read that you should test drive on the first day, go home and sleep on it and then go back and buy the car, and that is my plan.
Since I’m only test driving the car, I figured maybe I could wait to finish cleaning my car before the trade in, but I was wondering do they inspect the trade in only when you are ready to buy?
So any advice or things I should be looking for and aware of when I get to the dealerships?

@Omnes Omnibus: Exactly.
We do have bucket loads of problems with the multiple “justice” systems throughout this country – harsh, seemingly intractable problems, yet every day in tens of thousands of interactions, things move along amazingly well considering how poorly they are designed.
The recent loss of life is so sad and so despicable, but for this up-close observer and participant, among the worst characteristics is the way so many non-violent infractions result in cuffing, stuffing and pre-trial jail time in a system that essentially forces a financially challenged defendant to plead quilty and take time served with an additional few days or so they can get out ASAP and try to salvage their employment.
It’s not that I do not care about the many dozens of uncalled for death by cop each year, but the social and financial toll being racked up by the process I have just described will end up with costs that might exceed calculation.

@Omnes Omnibus: I’m leaning towards the Mazda 6 cause I like the look, but I’ll see if I like the feel.
Hyundai has one of the best warranties out there, 60,000/100,000, 5 years, etc. The Sonata is actually the #1 midsize sedan in it’s class, followed by Accord and Camry. Mazda 6 is in top 10, but it wins on style.
I really want space, and sped on pick up (I hate a slow roller and I tend to like a quick pick up when merging or pulling out into traffic). Price matters because of my pre-approval amounts. The less the car, the less I pay obviously, but if I can talk down a nice car to be ithing my range I’d take the hit on my monthly car note. I have a good job that pays well, and I can afford to take that hit.
I’m gonna be trading in my SUV, so if after testing the cars out, the amount of the trade in will be a big deciding factor in whether or not I decide what car.
In theory though, if I can get the car I want at a price I want without the trade in, I’d like to keep my SUV as a backup car, cause you never know.

Before I traded my car in, I cleaned out the junk and got a really good car wash — not detailing or anything, but a nice hand wash that was maybe $20. I got top dollar for my trade-in, so I guess it worked.

What I haven’t decided is if I want to do it before going to dealearship. How does a trade in work exactly? Do they do a thorough exam, or jut look up the vehicle and decide based on model year?

I remember you telling me about the Mazda 3 too. I scheduled a test drive for the Mazda 6 and the CX5 though. But I did schedule the Mazda dealer after the Hyundai dealership, mainly because as I said, I really like the look of the Mazda 6 (I’m liking the look of the red car) so I’m leaning towards it.
But when I shop, I like to look at what I really want last. It’s like when I watch the show Say Yes To The Dress, I hate when the brides try on a dress that’s WAY out of their budget range, and then when they try on a dress from their actually price range, they are just disappointed and pining for the more expensive dres.
So I’ll be going to Hyundai and hopefully about 2 hours later, I’ll be at the Mazda dealership.

They won’t so much as glance at your current car until you say “I’m looking to trade in.”

Traveled to NY in Sept. to aid Mom in buying a new car, and steered her to a Mazda 3 iTouring sedan (the trunk is HUGE). Heated seats and a bunch of other goodies (but not the media/rear camera package – one can always have any or all of that put in aftermarket for a better price). She’s about to turn 87, and now swears it is far and away the best car she has ever owned, plus much, much easier to get into and out of for herself and her contemporaries. And she no longer needs to sit on a cushion, as the seat rises high enough and the steering column adjustable enough for her to have clear sight lines by just sitting on the seat. Also she’s happy that the dash displays, while electronic, are in analog form, which she prefers to having constantly changing numerals on a digital display. Yeah, it’s 4-cylinder, but a peppy four (not an empty claim of it getting approximately 41 highway mpg). One more nice thing is that the Mazdas are just appointed better than other cars in the same price range – leather or good material rather than plastic, etc.
And sleeping on it is always a Good Thing when any major purchase is involved. Any dealership that tries jerking the customer’s chain with the “We can’t guarantee this price tomorrow” crap is one I would then and there decide to never buy anything from at all.)

I’ll let others weigh in on whether precleaning the car increases trade-in value or whether dealers are like “We’ve seen it all, and we clean ’em ourselves anyway.” My only thought is maybe the dealer’s appraiser uprates a clean car because it suggests the mechanical/maintenance side has been maintained as well.

It’s also why I’m happy he turned on Cruz (after the last shutdown) and now RandPaul; that means the white urban working-class poujadists, the one-van contractors and third-generation civil service union guys, don’t trust Cruz (or RP) and will gleefully mug them & their supporters during the upcoming GOP primaries.
