Best news I’ve heard all day.
It’s a marathon, not a race.
I though that was July’s slogan...
Trumps left hook to Carson’s jaw has him staggering. Not surprised.
Not a single vote has been cast and Iowa has not been held yet. Cruz is holding steady and moving into the top tier of candidates with the best ground game in the race and is finally starting to breakout of the media blackout and rock the debates. I like his chances and it’s far from being over, in fact it’s still relatively early.
I thought a marathon was a race! Just a long one! Short or long, if you are ahead all the way you are the winner!
However, I really like a Trump/Cruz ticket! It would mean that Donald could go back to his family after only 4 years. Ted would have four years of apprenticeship on how to manage a large organization. Something he doesn’t have now. Donald Trump would get the benefit of advice from the best Constitutional scholar running. Heidi’s inside knowledge of Goldman Sachs would really help Donald dismantle the New World Order in banking. Plus it would be a “Rapture Ready” ticket! Can’t ask for more than that! ;-)
Do you judge who won the marathon at mile 18?
Lots of losers can be determined at that point, but the winner is rarely obvious.
Just keep whistling past the graveyard, son.
Conservatism is coming, and it’s got nothing to do with Democrat Don.
That’s true....that must be why Jim Gilmore is still in the race?
Kenyan won the last two marathons.
Cue Jaws music.
Like marathons, I think many people are in it to run, rather than real expectations to win.
I've never considered Reuters to be a "real" source.
That’s no reality check. At this point in 2004, Howard Dean was running away with the Democrat nomination. In 2008, Hillary was the runaway winner for the nomination. There’s a long way to go and Iowa will change a lot of perceptions.
Over the nearly six months there has been polling, it has been the most consistent.
I've seen at least one professional critique of it's method of polling, and it was a favorable one. It has been deemed to be very accurate.
I'm not the only one to think so.
The article I read addressed the new method of polling on-line. It was a favorable commentary based on the changing demographics of our phone service in the U. S.
Traditional polls aren't what they used to be.
If you want to opt out of belief, I'm all for it.
After the events in Paris on 11/13, I will be adding
this to my posts for the next week. I'm certain our
turn is coming again soon. We stand united against
Islamic extremists.
Some music for reflection if the mood strikes you.

An honorable mention also goes out to Lassana Bathily , a Muslim immigrant from Mali.
Mr. Bathily sheltered customers at the Jewish Deli and helped police by providing info
on the terrorists, and providing the location of survivors in the deli.

A marathon is a race, a long one.
Better analogy would be that it’s a marathon not a sprint.
Or
It doesn’t matter who leads the most laps it’s who crosses the finish line first.
All this yakity yak is so foolish, as if we all have special inside information and knowledge and can’t wait to post our special feelings. Mostly we just are posting our frustrations.
The last time I was right about politics is when I was young and dumb and stumbled upon Ronald Reagan. I’m just not young anymore and have decided not to fake it any longer.
