Biden warning about the Chinese? I think it has been Trump who has warned us since June.

“The Democrats failed. The Republicans failed. People are sick and tired of both parties and their political hacks.”

I think that pretty well sums things up. I like Cruz first Trump second. I am tired of the politics as usual and the likes of the GOP consultants.

There has not been a single vote cast and people around here are saying Trump is winning. There are still debates, campaign stops, commercials, radio spots, TV interviews, etc.

That bears repeating.

My own prediction is that the nominee will be one of these five: Cruz, Walker, Rubio, Bush, or Kasich. That's a prediction, not a preference. At this very early point in the process, my preference would be Cruz, with Walker my second choice.

Go Secretariat, go...er, I mean Donald.

Trump has overturned the table and CHANGED the rules. Yeah, I like Ted Cruz and I think he has a good chance of winning if nominated. However, Trump is almost SURE to win. One big reason is he attracts people normally uninterested in politics. My brother in law is one such person and when he visited me today he was all enthusiastic about Trump. Also my wife is apolitical and she also is big on Trump. She made sure to see him speak on TV at the stadium last Friday. Trump is pulling a wide spectrum of people into the political process and that is all to the good.

And I still can't figure out your objections. Okay, on a checkbox of issues he might not be 100% conservative but on what counts he is A-OK. If he does nothing else but reverse the illegals swarming into this country, that is fine by me. Also note he opposes Iran Nuke deal, TPP, and generally lousy deals for this country.

I also note that he is the ONLY candidate who flat out called Bergdahl a traitor.

For all this, I can easily abide his big ego. Actually it amuses me because it completely goes against the FALSE modesty that most candidates pretend to have.

Ok! Bye!

So what do you do if the ticket is Trump/Cruz?

Of course. MedsPlus watching TV at time of writing. Sorry. Brain fart
