| #9 #5 - Fred, nicely said. I have FB Friends and groups that are already starting to destroy longterm friendships. I don't trust Trump, but he's likely to win IF things continue. I DO LIKE his tweaking of issues (note that vetting Syrian Refugees BEFORE bringing them in is no longer off the table or polite discussion - Fuck yeah), he also points out the hazard of ILLEGAL Immigration, which I like... |

| #6 I'll go with what Fred said for a fair ways. I'm not sure sure who I want yet, but I do know that I'm a "molten lava"* voter: I'll swim through molten lava to vote against Hilarity. What angers me: in both 2010 and 2014 I voted straight Pub because the GOPe told me, do that and we'll confront Obama. We won't win them all because he's got the veto, but we'll take him to task. I did in both elections, and the GOPe since has wrung its hands and carried on business as usual. They just jammed through an Omnibus bill that Nancy and Harry loved. So remind me: why vote Pub in the next election? * It's like being a "broken glass" voter, but a tad more committed... |

| #5 The problem is that the Publicans have been routinely trouncing the Dems in congressional elections. We've been voting for fiscal conservatives. We've been getting John Boner and Mitch McConnell, mutually scratching backs and revolving dooring. That's why the top of the Publican heap this time is non-politicians with the exception of Cruz, who's a Tea Party product and intentionally pisses on the establishment leg. The debates have a.) emptied the field of also rans like Lindsey Graham and Rick Santorum. I think I saw somewhere that Gary Johnson had announced his candidacy. He didn't even make the kids' table with Graham. b.) gave everybody a close look at the major contenders. Bush isn't going anywhere because even his Mom doesn't want him to run. John Kasich is wedded to his talking point and answers questions with them. Rand Paul ha lots that people like, but nobody likes him. c.) The winnowing process left us with pick of the litter. Carson's not top of the heap, but most Publicans would vote for him and it would be neither because of nor in spite of his race. Likewise Fiorina would be a good candidate, neither because of nor in spite of the fact that she's a woman. Rubio is smart and scrappy and wears funny shoes. I'd vote for him. My personal favorite is Cruz. d.) The People's Choice looks like Trump. I don't see any ideology in him, which can be a bad thing or it can be a lack of blinders. He's not trying to be Ronald Reagan (like the late Fred! Thompson) but he reminds me of Reagan because he's pushing his ideas, which in this case involve good management and belief in self and country. If he can hang that on a framework of respect for the Constitution then I'm all for him. |

| #4 I don't think The Donald's that competent; I think he's going to turn out to be Just Another Machine Politician at the end of the day. |

| #3 Beck did not make an individual comaparison as the headline suggests. He dovetailed one his longstanding historical observations with Rush's analysis regarding Trump's politcal success. One can agree or disagree with either one of their opinions but both certainly offer more insight then the political chum that's been constantly troweled out. One thing is for sure...Breitbart is click bait for simpletons. |
