      I’m no RFK supporter, but that shit was muckraking by NYT. Granted, I question his choice in using the excuse of having a worm in his brain to avoid paying alimony to his ex-wife, but it wasn’t being reported honestly and they acted like this was some new revelation that happened in the last few years rather than well over a decade ago.

      RFK is not electable, but I will concede that I like three of his positions quite a bit:

      • Money out of politics
      • Housing and barring corporate ownership of single-occupancy homes
      • Cutting defense spending

      He’s got so many issues that keep him from being a serious contender, but those three subjects are important and he stands on the right side in that regard.
