Tom DeLay: Trump's Done; Carson or Cruz May Nab Nomination

Donald Trump's shock slide from Republican presidential front-runner to second banana behind Dr. Ben Carson can mean only one thing — the billionaire developer's shot at the GOP nomination is cooked, former U.S. House Majority Leader Tom DeLay tells Newsmax TV.

"Trump is on his way out. People have had enough of him, he has no substance, and he's on his way out. That's what I'm seeing," DeLay, a Texas Republican who now hosts a Washington Times radio show, said Wednesday on "The Steve Malzberg Show."

But could Carson, a retired pediatric neurosurgeon who has never been elected to public office, actually grab the Republican nomination? Yes, says, DeLay, as long as he doesn't make the same mistakes as Trump....

DeLay and Carson have the same nickname: “The Hammer”

Interesting perspective from the Hammer. Not sure he is right, but I am ready for him to come back to congress and knock heads

[DouglasKC]

A couple of polls??? And he’s done?

[Fungi]

Lyin’ Ryan would never let him in.

[Slyfox]

A couple of push polls.

Says the guy who was taken out by a third-string country prosecutor.

Tom Delay sold out to the DC cartel a long time ago.

Tommy is a lobbyist in DC !

Fuzzy nuts may not have much choice. The Hammer was the master of reaching objectives, by whatever means necessary. Legal of course! :)

He is DC lobbyist.

He is the problem now.

Well, they said the GOPe would be going after Trump hammer and tongs now. Another has been piling on.

Doubting Thomas

Another blowhard self-identifies.

[catfish1957]

You stutter?????

BTW...do you know how to make sentences longer than 4 words long?

Kidding aside, the Hammer was among the most staunchest of conservatives, and any attempt on your part to taint those conservative credentials is bogus.

You have something against conservatives?

[catfish1957]

Also, do you realize that DeLay was one of the last GOP leaders who actually fought back at the leftist dim slimes?

[reaganaut]

The liberal RINO media and establishment know that most people will believe them and not check facts. Self fulfilling prophecy. Its how they got people to vote for Romney.

Delay is just another K street slug now.
He was great before he sold out .
But he wants the K street cronyism to continue and Trump is a threat !
