JEB Bush, anointed of the Republican establishment -- the Chamber of Commerce crowd, had dropped out. Their backup -- John Kasich is, at best, an also ran. In desperation, they are throwing their support to Rubio -- a pro-open borders candidate. Larry Ellison, Oracle, just injected $1 million into a pro-Rubio PAC.

So far things are shaping up where the only people who will win this election year are the late night comedians. Because the fix is in with the super-dooper delegates on the Dem side, we'll have an old bat graft queen who should have to pardon herself for giving away state secrets for free (Poor girl, lost income opportunity!) and a loud self promoting huckster on the republican side. There ain't enough distillates in Tennessee and Kentucky to see sane people through this election year.
Jeb is KO'ed in the 3nd round, the new Golden Boy is Rubio.. by the sound of funding..
I'm glad to see Jeb go, Totally Tired of Bushes & Clintons!!
And 1 is an Arrogant Criminal above the Law. (Not Jeb)

Nothing funny about a hilLIARy/bernie/dem win. That's the last nail in the coffin.
Jeb had a 100 million dollar superpac fund and is already out. How could someone with that kind of backing fade so quickly?

Conservative Republicans are tired of the establishment -- Chamber of Commerce and RINO bunch.
I'm thinking Trump is the poster child of a RINO. No?
Whatever. ABC
Anyone But Clinton.

Whatever one thinks of Trump, he doesn't qualify as an entrenched RINO. No history.
Agreed. Not an entrenched anything except a successful businessman who learned from another successful businessman with far more conservative values, Ross Perot, it's better to be one or the other than odd man out and give away the presidency.
Kudos to Trump for taking the path he has. Though he is, any way you chose to qualify him, bottom line, a Republican in name only.
I'm sure he would explain it as a business, not political, decision. He has alluded to that point numerous times.

So far.
Rubio has far less work experience than Obama did, but the wingers who support him and who have ranted about Obama's allegedly inadequate experience don't seem to have noticed this.
Trump's success is an indicator of the sorry state of cluelessness to which the right wing electorate has sunk. His rambling, blithering, chaotic, disjointed public utterances should make any intelligent listener shudder.
If . . .
I just want to say, at least on behalf of me and my family, I thank God all the time it was George W. Bush in the White House on 9/11 and not Al Gore
makes Rubio a RINO . . .
then . . .
please sir, may I have another.

"Work experience?" As what? A community organizer?
Pre-POTUS political experience, Rubio kicks Obama's azz.
Trump's success is an indicator of what every liberal [Bloomberg, Clinton, Sanders et al] strives for but cannot achieve because of their rambling, blithering, chaotic, disjointed public utterances make any intelligent listener shudder.
Speaking of cluelessness - then there's Killer Mike who turned the libs to the Pope to rescue them from total humiliation.
Right now there is just one present or past governor left in the race, John Kasich; so he's my choice for now because of his executive experience. Because running a business obviously requires executive experience, Trump should be a better choice than Rubio or Cruz, but it hasn't been all that long ago when Trump trumpeted liberal talking points. For that reason he is the ABC last choice for me, but then again Ronald Reagan was once a Democrat and only Trump and God knows what's in his heart.
I've lots of ABC choices. You're one of them, Stanky.

Thank you, but I'm not sure that's that's all that much of a complement. I think even my idiot dog would be a better choice than Hillary, but he wouldn't make the age requirement.

Al Gore may have been dumb enough to punish the nation that gave us radical Islam and 15 of the 9-11 hyjackers. Air travel was also shut down in the US until the Saudi's got flown out of America.
Al Gore would have shutdown the nation in the name of global warming. Then, prepared for the warmist apocalypse that didn't happen.
Obama has done an excellent job as a community disorganizer and destroyer.

Are you hugely forgetful or have you missed the well-documented FACT that Obama practiced law with a prestigious firm, taught constitutional law at a prestigious university, and was a state legislator and U.S. Senator? Or do you prefer to clip off just the few words of his resume' and submit those in such a way as to imply that that was all there was to his pre-presidential curriculum vitae? Yep, that is the most likely reason. Cheap shot, budsfarm, but not an uncommon canard from the Obamaphobic wingnut sector.
In an earlier time critics such as you would have cited Harry Truman as no more than a failed haberdasher.

And that racist, irrational diatribe confirms your much deserved status as a blithering bigot.
With the sterling qualities that Condie describes, one would expect the present administration to have done much better. Rather, than presiding over the worst recovery in over 100 years, while cementing the title of worst president, ever.

I didn't realize obum had a couple of good points.
Al Gore would have shutdown the nation in the name of global warming. Then, prepared for the warmist apocalypse that didn't happen.
Would that have been worse than destablizing the mideast which has led to the entire world being destablized? That is what Bush brought.

Where is the racism? Half white-he is. What's racist about that? Half kenyan born black-where's the racism? Calling him black? He calls himself black. Calling him a muslim? Muslim isn't a race. I asked you once before beternnun, if there's nothing wrong with muslims as you want us to believe, and you seem to value them over every other person, WHY do you get so upset at the suggestion obama is a muslim?

First, living with rolling blackouts, 25 percent unemployment, rampant inflation o top of terrorism as a day-to-day existence would be much worse. Which would have been our future with Gore.
Second, Dems complain that Bush didn't recognize the Sunni/Shi'ite differences in Iraq, which destabilized that part of the ME.
However, Dems failed to recognize the tribal differences in Libya, which destabilized north Africa and then Syria, creating ISIS. Congrats, Dems! You doubled down on dumb!

You are SOOOOO SHALLOW! Jack(ass) obviously is using his selected string of descriptors to paint a negative portrayal of the President. There can be no other interpretation that makes sense of what Jack(ass) posted. As such, his reference to the racial makeup of the President is negative and RACIST. As to calling him a Muslim, to Jack and others who make that irrational ASSertion, THAT is the "irrational" element to which my description above applies. I am upset and disgusted any and all LIES told about the President, including the LIE that he is Muslim and the recurring 8-year old viral LIE that he said he will "stand with the Muslims," which he never said. My denial of the claim that he is a Muslim is not in any way to be construed as an admission on my part that there is "nothing wrong with [M]uslims." I find plenty to object to in Islam.
