No, but he came closer to Obama than without Ryan. Do not get me wrong, I do not like Rubio because he is more pro-amnesty than all others except Jeb Bush who is married to a Mexican woman. But Rubio could help with more votes in Florida.
Ya got it right!
Would you bet three new supreme court appointments on it?
“Trump is the only one with the experience running a multifaceted billion dollar complex business. And that’s what our government is. He will chose a staff who will solve problems ......or FIRE them.
I like many of other candidates. They too have areas of expertise But even the governors can’t match Trumps business expertise”
Very well stated, so I’m making sure it gets a 2nd play here. Trump will run gov’t as a business should be run. Read this comment above again folks.
Trumps a lightening rod for now....needs to watch it though...others are creeping up rather nicely now so he’s not going to remain there for long....
No matter how long he’s able to stand he’s done well at drawing attention where it needs it....
That’s for sure...but Reagan was a populist also...I will be more than surprised if Trump lasts the duration...but for now he serves us all well imo......including the other candidates, he has shown what the people want to hear and that with gusto! Let’s hope they all get it and there will be some great debates ahead!
Marcco will not win Florida. I don’t know a single person who likes Marco. He cut his throat with the Immigration deal and Bush with Common Core. NEITHER will gain Florida for the Repubs. I don’t care what the politicos say.
More like 4 new nominations. Have you see how old they look?
“Listen to the Boston Media, for what ever reason they are on the cutting edge of all this right now, I can’t explain it, it’s been happening for about a month now.
For better or worse, they seem sick of all politicans pro-Cruz but riding the Trump train.”
It doesn’t hurt in Boston that Trump is half Celtic (Scottish). The other half is German, by the way. Boston has a great affinity for the Celts. (I’m part Irish meself).
May be you just do not know many Hispanics in Florida? Rubio can speak Spanish to them :)
Trump is a protest vote.
“John Kerry was able to complete a nuke deal with Iran, that is one accomplishment more that Hillery ever got while SOS.”
Yeah, but Kerry got his deal by selling out our country for the second time in his “career”.
Which means Trump could have a German brain and Scottish penchant to speak their mind!
He is DETESTED by many in Florida, the many who worked hard to get him elected. He has lost his base and we will not support him again. He thought selling out to the Dems would blow over, but it hasn’t and it won’t. And Bush dug deeper in his hole last week when he said SPANISH is spoken in his home more than ENGLISH. HELLO, all those people who grind their teeth every time that have to push 1 for English won’t forget that.
Well that is quite a stretch there....Trump lacks experience and talent he's going to need as well. I doubt very much if he's going to have the connections in Washington he's had in business....that's an entirely different beast and road to navigate when you're knee deep in political maneuvers and those who pull the strings....right now he has his people running the gambit for him and since he's known and popular among he can do that....he will not have such a clear shot in Washington if he makes it there.. I'm happy he's getting the attention he has...it's good for everybody....and I hope he can last awhile longer as well. That will depend on how the media decides....right now he's great press.

The dems must be lovin the idea of running versus Trump. A 17 point spread is nothing to disregard.
I think Cruz and Fiorina have both taken some good shots at her.
Business skills can help in government, but don't provide the political sense a president needs in dealing with Congress.
If you're used to success in a non-political field, you can become very impatient in dealing with politicians and really make a mess of things.
