Politically Unapologetic: Republicans lose debate, Kasich last hope
The Wilkes Beacon ^ | 2-14-2016 | Eric Casey

A recent Gallup poll now shows that Independents make up 42% of the electorate. That's bad news for the Democrats and Republicans as now only 29% of Americans identify as Democrat and 26% of Americans identify as Republicans.

During the debate there were plenty of unnecessary personal attacks. Especially those between Trump, Bush, and Cruz. Another thing that drove me freaking insane was the bible banging that Pastor Ted Cruz decided to whip out again. I mean, there's only so much preaching you can do during a campaign. These Republicans need to focus on their plans and strategies. What they don't need to focus on is pandering to crazy religious imbeciles and appealing to those that live in the deep woods of the south. You know, the ones that wave a confederate flag on the back of their over sized pickup truck with all the monster energy drink patches on their clothes.

However, there is one savior left in this Republican campaign season. That's Ohio Governor John Kasich. He's the only moderate up on stage. He's the only one that can appeal to Independents and possibly even Democrats in a general election.

Hey Bubba. I heard your reasons on another thread. Voting is suppose to be a private thing for the very reasons you mentioned. Who, or what party you vote for, should not have to directly threaten your livelihood.

And you’ll find that most of us here don’t belong to country clubs.

As for me, I’m glad you came. And this is one of this reasons why I support Trump. He is bringing people round to take a look. And that’s a good thing. A real good thing. Because the asswipes in the country club can’t be bothered with it, and were sick of them.
