This should be a fun rally today. I can't imagine what it would be like without our Free Republic Forum. When it crashed a few weeks ago, I was going through DTs. No one knew what had happened.

Thanks for the thread!

Is there also a press conference this morning at 11:30? I think I saw that on Right Side.

I heard a democrat yesterday (I think her name is Maryanne?) on Fox and she had a fleeting moment of truth. When asked about the general, she said that Cruz would be easy for Hillary to beat, but Trump would be the challenge. I’ll bet she regrets being caught off-guard and would like to take that one back.

I'd like to know who that was! There is a Kellyann Conway, but she's a GOPe operative.

I’m adding my post from yesterday’s here for those that missed in and might be interested in discussions on some of the shows, especially Corey and Manafort.

Here’s the Sunday Morning Talk Show lineup [note Corey will be on Fox News Sunday, Manafort will be on This Week and Priebus will be on 3 shows (I suspect the discussions will be all about Trump’s comments on delegates)]:

FOX NEWS SUNDAY (Fox):
Dr. Anthony Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases;
Corey Lewandowski, Trump’s campaign manager

MEET THE PRESS (NBC):
Gov. Pat McCrory, R-N.C.;
Reince Priebus, head of the Republican National Committee;
Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, head of the Democratic National Committee

FACE THE NATION (CBS):
Priebus;
Democratic presidential candidate Sanders;
Dr. Anthony Fauci

THIS WEEK (ABC):
Democratic presidential candidates Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders;
Paul Manafort, adviser to Republican Donald Trump’s presidential campaign;
Ken Cuccinelli, adviser to Republican Ted Cruz’s presidential campaign

It was Maryanne Marsh (sp). She’s been on quite a few shows the last few months. Prior to that don’t recall seeing her since she was always on shows during the Clinton admin.

IIRC she was on Judge Jeanine’s show. There was a Pubbie dude on and he was for Cruz (IIRC he said he didn’t like Trump).
