Yeah. I’m not sure if Rush realized what he said but he was trying to say that to change the delegate count, certain would have needed something like 25K more votes but that he didn’t think that the fraud accounted for that many. So it didn’t matter. Like there wasn’t a remedy that would change anything. But he called it fraud.

$arah Palin voluntarily abdicated the Governorship to which the people of Alaska had elected her so that she and her family could capitalize on her new found fame. She chases the almighty dollar, and Trump has a pile of dollars to chase. She has as much credibility as a disinterested commentator as Josh Earnest, Obama’s press secretary - i.e. none. She’s a paid commentator for the Trump campaign. Take anything she says appropriately.

Don’t think he ever had a halo, but guess some thought that. What we are seeing is GOPe hitting Cruz from one side and Trump from the other. As to the letter, not sure what you mean by “finally admitted”, seems he owned the letter when it first came out. And, no reason not to, it is a campaign tactic used by both Dems and the Republicans, to include the Rep Party, but the Iowa Sec State is a Trumper and against Cruzes anti ethanol subsidies stance, so he was hardly unbiased. Additionally, the individual in the Cruz campaign who put out the mailer is a former SecState who says those mailers are routine. But, as is evident by the invective and name calling on most political threads on this and other boards, facts, and in some case, reason are ignored.

It’s over for Trump he’s sounding like a little kid who didn’t get his way and his ego is bruised.

I don’t know. I mean she was picked to be Vice President of the United States for McCain if nominated. I mean what are you going to do about that if you genuinely care about the country and want to help influence things for the better? She was given a bigger stage to speak from. You blame her for accepting that role? I and many others certainly do not. I think you’ve got a distorted picture of Palin.

Hmmm. A tree surgeon, eh? How many trees have you had fall on you? Regardless, I think you're going to be back to normal one day very soon. But keep up with the meds in the meantime, okay?

BTW, do you work free as a tree surgeon?

Kind of. The question is, is there any truth or gravitas behind his complaints? Usually there is and although at first many people dis the guy, oftentimes it comes out he was right and he actually said what needed to be said.

We’ll see I guess.

I was a fan of Palin at the time she was selected for VP running mate. I admire her pro-life dedication. I liked what she had to say on the issues. But then she became a quitter, and gave the governorship to someone less capable that she at espousing conservative principles. Just rubbed me the wrong way - and that was six years ago.

If Palin was supporting an actual conservative, I might agree for her concern of the country being a driving force. But, she is supporting a liberal wolf in populist sheep’s clothing. A liberal wolf with deep pockets. Things all start to make sense when you tie this to the leaving Alaska for the big money. It is truly a shame, too.

This: "He told voters Carson was dropping out of the Presidential race immediately before the Iowa caucus, causing a relative uproar inside the process, so the word would spread and he could rack up more votes for his candidate, Cruz. That's a dirty trick. Dr. Carson deserved better."

You know better.

I’m sure Alaska has a codified transference of succession to the governorship if it is vacated. Why do you say Palin “gave” the governorship to someone?

Please forgive “gave” - only meant by leaving, the next guy wasn’t as effective. She didn’t literally give the chair someone outside the succession.

Well, again you call her a “quitter” for answering the call to a wider stage and louder voice. That is a misrepresentation IMO.

No he waited 48 hours before he admitted he ok’d them. There were long threads here claiming a subordinate allowed them. You would be ok with your neighbors knowing your voting habits? Not me even though they are an A+.

Re:”Cruz admitted to this dirty trick”

Cut the crap.
He addressed the same situation that Rubio did election night as well. But we don’t hear the condemnation of him.
Either you are a Rubio plant or so full of s*** you can’t see straight.
It was not generated by Cruz, it was from CNN.
Stop spreading lies.
You are the dirty bastard for blaming Cruz, not CNN or even mentioning Rubio.
Tell Rubio he is still on the hook for his dealings with the Gang of 8 when you see him next.
