If there’s anything better than a flip-flop, it’s a flip-flop-flip. Few among us who are not Democrats can aspire to the near-impossible flip-flop-flip-flop. I’m still at flip pending Rubio’s announcement.
I have a feeling you are gonna be waiting a while.
Rubio-Schumer was devastating for Rubio–or should have been. The overwhelming support in these quarters for this traitor is incomprehensible.
Here’s hoping Trump trounces Rubio in FL and sends Rubio to the job better suited to his talents–lobbyist for the sugar industry.
Sigh. I do wish Trump could have broken bread with her. It’s a loss for the Donald and congrats to Cruz for recruiting probably my favorite candidate in the entire primary.
This doesn’t do much to change the race.
Frank’s post basically convinced me that there is no way for the Republican party to unite behind anyone. Rubio and Kasich will never drop out. Trump will go into the convention with a majority or a strong lead in delegates and either the Trump supporters or the #NeverTrump side walks away from the party and Hillary wins in a landslide.
I have never been more depressed than I am today.
You’ll feel better when Rubio and Kasich drop out. =)
I find it amusing that you think Trump breaks bread with anyone. He has openly abused everyone who has endorsed him.
The man looks out for himself, time and again. Everyone who gets on the Trump Train ends up worse off for it, except arguably the politicians he buys.
Tell that to Icahn!
Um. Icahn bought Trump assets out of bankruptcy. Icahn did not get on the Trump train – he waited for the train to crash, then picked over the remains.
He’s backing him none the less for the candidacy: Carl Icahn: ‘No-brainer’ to elect Trump president.
Or better yet, change the paradigm. Make the presidential debates ticket vs. ticket. All 4 on the stage, so the country can see the entire tickets they need to choose between.
And when was the last time we heard Romney articulate conservative principles in a way that resonates with people?
Heck, when was the first time??
The differences between Carly and Mitt are enormous.
The past matters not a whit. If Ted threatens Trump, Carly will be part of the story. So primary voters will learn about her that way.
Going forward into the general, assuming Ted/Carly is the GOP ticket, the media will HAVE to cover her. They ignored her, even when her debate performances shot her skyward, because they knew she was the existential threat to Hilliary’s coronation like no other GOP candidate was. So they froze her out. She got virtually no press.
If she’s on the GOP ticket as VP, she (and Ted) will have 3+ months of coverage that the media cannot avoid. That’s plenty of time for the voters to find out all that’s good about her.
Sure. Icahn liked picking up the pieces of Trump’s casino empire for pennies on the dollar. Imagine the opportunities if Trump runs the whole country with that same business savvy!
