Like Romney or not, I’d rather have had him than BHO.

You?

At least now we won't have four more years of Romney.

Trump has 60% in the Drudge poll, that’s more than all the other 10 dwarves combined LOL

You're laughing because a self-identified Democrat is leading the Drudge poll? Okay ...

[octex]

Why have there not been any debates for the dems?
****************************
The DNC made a decision to only have about three debates before the Iowa caucas. They did so to shelter Hillary from too much exposure. .....Bernie and other Dems are now complaining and demanding more debates. Debbie W-S is refusing to budge. .............The DNC knows Hillary is weak.

Everybody who says Trump isn't beholden to any of the billionaires who like to buy politicians is missing the point. Trump is the billionaire who likes to buy politicians, according to his own bragging.

Trump is unique because he is his own special interest.

“Trump is unique because he is his own special interest.”

Fine, then he can buy himself off in office. Happy now?

“Like Romney or not, I’d rather have had him than BHO.
You?”
“At least now we won’t have four more years of Romney.”

Mittens just would’ve been ‘nice’ enough to the country to have used Vaseline, with a wholesome smile.

Therefore, I reject the conclusion of your well reasoned but miscarried reply that the candidacy of Ted Cruz should be rejected for want of conservative bona fides.

Very informative and good posting, NB!

The general public doesn’t understand that the votes by their Sens. and Reps. are often procedural votes to move things along and not reflective of their real leanings.

VERY clever. I will be shamelessly stealing this and not crediting you. LOL

[Lazamataz]

I always find myself smarter for having read one of your posts. You are one of my very favorite freepers.

[wardaddy]

Don’t forget CRUZ keeps Rosa Parks coffee mug on the desk

[wardaddy]

You should research her HP tenure

I’ve been on a few boards

You don’t fire the CEO for making money unless they break a morals clause or steal

And she did neither.....her performance was poor and she tried hard to break up what had worked in the past

Continued losses and when forced out by a 65% proxy vote the stock rose 7 % that day knowing she was out

She got 21 million

The media loves a fembot CEO but so few are up to it

It’s like BUDS

[RedHeeler]

How is it like BUDS?

[Democrat_media]

Thanks.

It’s amazing not that many on this site trust politicians so much even though they’ve never done anything pro-American

But think of it. This time around it is the GOPee that has to hold their nose and vote. They richly deserve it.

Aspects of Trump are troublesome but not new. He can seem almost petty. Nonverbal responses that make his point without interrupting can seem sophomoric but he does not let accusations just lay there. That is to his credit in the end.

The illegal invasion is something the Uniparty has let proceed to the point we have 30 or 40 million illegals here. Most of America is against this and not one politician has even spoken out against it until now. Trump is not only their creation he is their fault. Not ours. They let Soros’ “Open Border” BS almost kill the country.

The poster who brought up Soros actually deserves credit. In a real sense this is not about GOP vs the Rats. Not Hillary vs whomever. It is Soros vs Trump. Soros does not have the skill to do it himself so he just buys it. At least Trump has the balls to do it himself. After almost 100 years of progressive Rat bastard bullcrap it is gonna take a tough mother to turn it around. Not saying we need a Pinochet but maybe we do.

I think Fiorina’s little exchange with Trump over his casino hurt her. She came off as very prickly pearish. And Christie referring to her as ‘childish’ didn’t help either. It was expected Fiorina would be contentious as a means of gaining name recognition but she might have made more points sticking to the ‘pigtails and flirting’ retort, which was funny. Instead, she and Bush came off as emotional and reactive.

Trump’s timing was impeccable. He was the first focus and the last focus. He survived the initial volley of ‘he said respond to that’ stuff well. At the conclusion he turned the secret service nickname question into a win by taking advantage of Bush’s exuberance on ‘energizer’ by getting a previously flustered Bush to spontaneously high-five him. And he turned the vaccine question into a win by getting Carson to agree with him on dosing. Closing impression was Trump walked out of an advertized ‘get Trump-fest’ on a much higher note than some expected. Very Chairman of the Board.

I agree with the ‘A’ team is here’, comment made early on. There was a lot of talent on that stage tonite. Hopefully the next president will use some of them in a noticeable capacity.

None of the demo-commies are ready for prime time.

[Dusty Road]

Well said.

——Only money will determine who’s on the stage come March, 2016.-—

That rather presumptuous statement assumes one of the down stage losers can develop enough following to meaningfully challenge the Trump/ Carson leadership. Together they have more actual support than all of the rest of the field put together.

Money will not overcome that fact. the fact is, the enormous gap between the individual losers and the two individual front runners will attract money away from the losers

Biggest winner tonight: Megan Kelly.

Jake Tapper, who was, let's face it, the panel for all intents and purposes spent most of the debate bating participants to criticize Donald Trump by quoting their words. Megan Kelly forthrightly questioned Trump by quoting his own words to him.

If bear baiting is the ideal way to nominate a candidate for President of the United States, then CNN was a big winner but if honest confrontation of a candidate of his own positions with his own words according him with a fair chance to respond is the better standard, then Megan Kelly appears to great advantage last night.

He doesn’t have to - that’s the beauty of it. For Trump. He’ll save himself some significant money.
