Somebody get the cane and pull these losers off the stage.
Why is this campaign season so long? With TV/internet, etc. the season should about 3 months and hold elections. A year and a half is getting ridiculous!
Here here. These guys are adding nothing (ideas, voters, passion) and have no support. They define the word distraction.
Lets not repeat the mistakes of last election where we had so many candidates and debates it became beyond boring.
Lets face it in 2012 for normal people (non political junkies) watching a bunch of republicans debate multiple times was about as interesting as watching paint dry.
We get it Jeb! a.k.a Governor Bush is trying to dillute the field and gerrymander the primary process but its not working and its time we start aggressively demanding in no particular order of irrelevancy that Gilmore, Graham, Pataki, Paul, Christie, Jindal, Christie. Bush needs to go but so does his shills. I’d say Rubio and Huckabee too but they are at least getting some organic support.
Huckabee needs to go because its the right thing to do and he is now damaging his brand.
The uncomfortable topic is Ted Cruz the candidate we hate to love. I’ve stated before Jeb!’s slow approach my work for him. He has a computer scientist algorithm genius billionaire PAC man behind him. If only Ted would have taking a couple more theatre classes. Everybody tells me he is brilliant. I’ve heard him on Levin - seen and read him during the campaign he is not as impressive as I’d hoped. He needs to make a move now or move because quite he is quite close to becoming the next Scott Walker. Those of us who want him to be awesome are at the end of our I’d say rather long attempt to grok the Cruz. I like that he filibustered against Obamacare - “n stuff” but I don’t like that underneath the surface it seems as though he could be a creepy jerk that nobody wants to be associated or can work with because he an ass.
Here are some things that are true in my mind.
Senator Cruz is not telegenic, he his tone deaf in his coordination with his phyical movements in accord with his argument within there context He seems to be blind to the complexities involved in communicating to the many layers of audience seeing him.
He is a rookie
He is not an outsider but merely an insurgent sitting junior senator.
Insurgency alone is not currently enough to past muster. Americans want an American Leader not an ideologue.
I not going to be disingenuous and say I hope I’m wrong I’ll just say I’m disappointed in Cruz. Simultaneously and inversely I very happy with Trump and what he has done to the primary - it is super awesome fun. Its appearing that sooner rather than later Cruz small waves have got to move aside for the the deep currents the Trump Tie brings with its’ rising
So much for the CNN-hyped ‘collapse of Trump’. He’s surging again!
