Backstabber and sore loser Mitt Romney:
"Obama is my King. Islam is my friend.
And by Gruber, Americans are my slaves."

I love Caddyshack, hysterical.

but I didn’t like the “it’s us blacks, Italians, Irish, Jews etc. against the evil WASPS!!”

White anglo protestants have done so much for the country the list is impossible to make.

And i’m Italian Roman Catholic!!

maybe I should just enjoy it as a show. Rodney as hysterical.

One of the funniest movies ever. I laugh just remembering little parts of it :)

Here’s another laugh on good-natured Donald:

In the instance of Romney -- spokesman for the army of GOP powerbrokers who want to stop Trump -- it is hard to choose which of the movie's characters he would play in a remake

Somehow I see Mitt's character as the chief player in a booger consumption wager.

Call me Captain Obvious but the GOPe hates Trump because they will not be able to control him....and that makes me want him to be President all the more. Cruz comes in a far second because he, like Trey Gowdy in the House are all talk and no substance. Cruz will do what his masters want and most thinking people know that. We all thought that both of those gentlemen would be our saviors and shake up things in Washington but IT DIDN’T HAPPEN. GO TRUMP!

IIRC, Towery is a Georgia based pollster with his own company who’s been around a long time. However, I don’t remember him continuously predicting over a period of 15 months that Trump, like it or not, will get the nomination.

In fact, I find it hard to believe given his statement about Jeb and Rubio being ‘well-qualified’ (an implication that Trump is not, BTW).

Personally, I think Matt is trying to build up some “I told you so credibility” he can point back to when he goes begging for work from future political clients using this new “I predicted” meme. I just don’t buy it.

As for the Caddyshack analogy? Cute schtick hype come on designed to get readers and to make them remember his “predictions.”

“I’ve watched and chronicled about candidates who I know are well qualified, like Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio...”

Sigh...such nuggets of wisdom.

I’m at the point where I would describe the GOP as a fake WWE-wrestling organization which dreams up tifts and fights, which are fake but realistic. They use the news media about as much as the Democrats, and I’ve reached a point where I can’t really say there’s that much difference between the two parties. They represent something....it’s just not for the people back home and in their home district/state.

Yep.

Trump's rise has been a Cinderella story:

I agree with everything you just said here. In fact, even the Caddyshack cute schtick was ripped off from an an FR Vanity in February ...

maybe trumpinator has a copyright infringement case

-—And during all of this, I’ve watched and chronicled about candidates who I know are well qualified, like Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio,...-—

Stopped reading right there.

Just on their willingness to aid and abet the illegal invasion alone disqualifies these two.

Towery/s got a real gift....for spewing out nuggets of wisdom: “I’ve
watched and chronicled about candidates who I know are well qualified,
like Jeb Bush and Marco Rubio...”

Just put him on the junk pile of establishment flops....he/s done.

President Choom gang Barry like to ply golf so much I bet he would love the hybrid grass Bill Murray’s groundskeeper character came up with.

“This is a hybrid. This is a cross, ah, of Bluegrass, Kentucky Bluegrass, Featherbed Bent, and Northern California Sensemilia. The amazing stuff about this is, that you can play 36 holes on it in the afternoon, take it home and just get stoned to the bejeezus belt that night on this stuff.”

They are well qualified, just not by their conservative bonafides.

Gee, the consultant class must be happy as clams b/c Mitt has good hair....and loves to show it off on TV. Who else but Mitt would have taken the dumb job the consultants dreamed up to save their sorry rears?

Frankly, I/m just hoping and praying Mitt/s hair stylist is anti-Trump. Heaven knows what an errant hair clipper might do?

The writer for the Country Club and Trump is trying to get in. Ironic that Trump owns the nicest CCs in the world.

Pray America wakes
