Lol. This race hasn’t even started, but people are already saying it’s over? Stupidity.
To: Steelfish
Walkers ability to appeal to both the establishment and the activist wings of the party had looked like a strength, but now it seems a precarious balancing act, made all the more difficult by a panicky reaction to Trump. No sooner had Walker pronounced himself aggressively normal in the debate than he seemed to opt for just aggressive in an attempt to play to the passions tapped by Trump. Who could have predicted that the Midwestern candidate who tells stories about buying shirts for $1 at Kohls would have to play populist catch-up with the New York billionaire who travels by eponymous helicopter?
Doesn't describe the reality I see. Walker just sank like a brick.

He has the advantage of not caring about anything, apparently the facts, his reputation, or, ultimately, winning the presidency. Does that describe Trump?

The rise of Donald Trump is, in part, a function of a vacuum. He is thriving in a Republican field that is large, talented, and, so far
morally and ideologically bankrupt. For the vast majority of them.

How can anyone say that Trump is not a serious man? Obviously, he is, or he would not have made billions of dollars. Secondly, what in the world does the rule of gravity have anything whatsoever to do with Trump's popularity; it does not apply at all. And furthermore, we must do something about this huge alien invasion even though they are not in uniform and carrying weapons. If they were, we would have no hesitation (I hope) in deporting them, so why in the world can't we? So why in the heck is Bush's argument more reasonable?
I find absolutely nothing in Rich Lowry’s arguments that I agree with, and normally I like what he has to say. All I can say to his credit is that he did not resort to the over-the-top anti-Trump hyperbole of George Will's recent column.

The rules of gravity say Trump will come back down to earth. The media interest that is so intense now could burn out. His lack of seriousness should be a drag over time. Even if he fades, though, someone else will have to fill the screen. To this point, no one else has been big or vivid enough to do it. Pundits getting wrong again. It is more than Trump's personality. His issues of immigration, jobs, and trade are resonating with Americans. The other candidates are weak on these issues. The GOPe didn't want the issue of immigration even raised during the campaign.

Well, hell, why even bother trying then?
Sheesh. No wonder Ann Coulter referred to the guys at National Review as girly men.
Yo, Rich, ain't National Review a part of the media? Why don't you report on what the other candidates are saying and doing?

And who created the vacuum? Republicans suck, that's what caused the vacuum. The ones that got elected to disassemble ObamaCare, address the debt/deficit crisis, or reform entitlements and illegal immigration are in two camps:
* One group forgot how they got there.
* The other group is trying to love up to the reason they were elected and are vilified by the Republican party itself.
Yup - suck causes a vacuum....and The Donald is filling that vacuum and scratching the itch of the scorned and disappointed Republican electorate.

This is true. The vacuum exists because the GOP is a wholly owned subsidiary of The Cheap Labor Express and is activey trying to prevent the citizens from stopping the illegal alien inundation.
The Democrats represent the illegal aliens.
The GOP represent their employers.
No one represents the 65% of the citizens that want the laws enforced and the border secured.
That is the vacuum Trump stepped into.
The RNC thought they were going to nominate ¡Yeb! right into the teeth of their voters but the voters have other options this time.
Go Trump!

I'd say that National Review has sunk to a new low but that would be incorrect. Recall reading the NR puff piece written for "conservative" Bush '41 when he ran for Congress in the '60s.

He is a serious man, who makes his own way, and isn't afraid of what losers and hangers-on say or do.
I still want Cruz, but Trump has changed the landscape. Pushed the GOPe to the bottom of the heap.

I think I’m tired of the “All Trump all the time shows and reruns” Maybe that is the media’s plan; to make voters sick about hearing about trump all the time.

The GOP isn’t like the DNC. Voting for someone because of their skin color or because they have mammary glands is something that only low I.Q. morons do.
