Time will tell. Who’s he running against...Strickland?

You leaving Ohio?

[stratboy]

One + tepid endorsement from Linda Graham.

[proust]

For some reason I forgot about Linda...

[LS]

Yes.

Yes. Moving to Arizona in May.

Let’s see how their respective states match up with their voice in DC.

This has been a charade of an primary election. The race is such a lopsided win for Trump that it’s ludicrous to suggest otherwise. We are stuck with a non-winner trying to steal delegates from a winner that’s way out in front on so many levels and issues.

Team Cruz is efficient in weaseling out wins in a few caucus states known for their oddball and malleable vote counting methods.
Cruz won:
Virgin Islands by 30 votes
Wyoming by 480 votes
Alaska by 600 votes
Maine by 2,500.

Here are the rounded total votes Cruz won in his nine winning states.

Wyoming 620 people
Virgin Isl 200 people
Alaska 8,400
Maine 8,500
Kansas 35,000
Iowa 52,000
Utah 122,00
Okie 158,000
He won eight states totaling 385,000 votes.
If it wasn’t for Texas, he’d have a pile of beans.

Ted’s lackluster Texas win, Texas 1,239,393.
Cruz’s winning votes in nine states are 1,724,000.
Cruz won 9 states with 1,724,000 votes

Trump won 21 states, and nearly all the states were won by tens or hundreds of thousands of votes. The millions that have attended his rallies have voted.
Marianas (343 people)
Hawaii 6K
Vermont 20K
Nevada 35K
Kentucky 83K
N. H. 101K
Louisiana 125K
Arkansas 133K
Mississipi 191K
South Car 241K
Arizona 250K
Mass. 311K
Tenn. 333K
Virginia 356K
AlaBama. 372K
Missouri 382K
N. Carol 458K
Michig. 483K
Georgia 503K
Illinois 557K
FLorida 1,079,741

Trump won those 21 states with 6,020,000 votes. And he acquired another 2.7 million votes in the states that he did not win.

I’ve seen a surge of people leaving. Had Easter dinner yesterday with a retired friend who’d been at the helm of 4 or 5 different large Ohio corporations. He was splitting his, though. Getting condos in both places. I think he’s snowbirding from here, but living the 6 winterish months in the south.

[Jim from C-Town]

Looking at that least answers allot of questions as to why things never go the Conservative way. Lots and lots of RINO’s in that list.

[Zathras]

McCain just lurched to the right to try and save his job.
McCain and Linda are playing “good cop, bad cop” with Trump.

[LS]

Not keeping a house here. No desire.

My property taxes in AZ are 20% of here (!!). No snow. Never have to see a snowblower again. Can walk or ride a bike every day. Never have to worry about, “gee, will the weather cooperate?”

[Jim from C-Town]

Ted the Reverend Strickland is his competitor. Ted is closer to eighty than seventy.

[stratboy]

Easy one to miss, he’s very forgettable.

[Jim from C-Town]

Ted Strickland is his competitor. That alone will get him reelected.

Does anyone really think that the black inner city residents will be rushing to the polls to support either the septuagenarian white multimillionaire grandma Clinton or the Septuagenarian old communist Jew Sanders?

I predict a lower than normal turn out for Democrats in November.

[xzins]

I beg to differ!

I was driving my son’s Sonoma from Ft Irwin to Cincinnati back in about 2000 when he was deployed to the Middle East.

I was going through some high range in Arizona on I40 in JULY....and I actually got snowed on.

I’m telling you the truth.

But, I’d get away from these taxes, too. :>)

[barker]

Same here. Was sure he would be in the no response list.

[LS]

Ok, yes. If you go above the Mogollon Rim, you DO get snow in winter and most of northern AZ gets snow. I’m speaking of Phoenix. It snowed briefly there about two years ago. Nothing stayed on the ground.

[bert]

The band wagon is slow

there will be plenty of opportunity to jump on

deals must be made

[xzins]

I was just messing with you. :>)

It, the snow, is a true story.

But,the true test will be if you root against the football Buckeyes. If the Sun Devils (or whatever they are) are in the national championship with the Buckeyes, then you’ll know if Ohio’s in your blood or not.

[crz]

Welcome to AZ. Enjoy the valley of the sun.

[LS]

I’ve always been a Sun Devil. Hate OSU.
