2015-11-05 : Free Republic's Patton@Bastogne's Bold Political Predictions
(1) Yeb Bush will make a good political campaign decision "intelligently" REFUSE to exit the 2016 GOP Presidential Race until he is DEFEATED in the 2016 March 15 Florida Primary. Yeb Bush's political "ace in the hole" is the hopelessly corrupt Florida Republican Party ... the ones who redistricted the great Allen West out-of-office.
(2) Meanwhile ... Dr. Ben Carson will be polling "single digits" by Christmas 2015 ... at which point he'll endorse (suprise, surprise) Yeb Bush ...
(3) Marco "Amnesty" Rubio (lavishly funded by Yeb Bush's former donors) ... will place FOURTH in Iowa (abandoned by the Tea Party Evangelical Christians for being a greedy bad-faced liar) and FOURTH in the Florida Primary (in a "blood-sport" death-match with Yeb Bush)
4) Ted Cruz SHOCKS the "Washington Establishment Cartel" with a three-percent Florida victory over Donald Trump ...
===================================
Tonight (Thursday, 2015-11-05) it was revealed that Dr. Ben Carson supports Transgendered Bathrooms (political suicide for his Evangelical Christian base) ...
... and Dr. Ben Carson has "lied" about the names of guys he supposedly beat-up in high school
... which, when combined with the "ridiculous" Pyramid Theory statements, is beginning to make Herman Cain (2012) and John Edwards (2008) look like Einstein and Gen. George Patton Jr.
===================================
"Anything" can happen in a "New York Minute" in American politics.
Just ask Machiavelli, Abraham Lincoln, JFK, Bobby Kennedy, Vince Foster, Gary Hart, Buddy Holly, U.S. Senators Hale Boggs, Ted Stevens, and Paul Wellstone, Herman Cain ...
and Napoleon at Waterloo (who was winning the battle, and Wellington admitting DEFEAT, as late as 5:00 PM in the afternoon).
===================================
Ninety-eight (98) GOP Convention delegates are at stake in Florida's "mas mucho rigged" state Presidential Primary (Winner take All).
That makes it more convenient for Yeb's GOPe Chamber of Commerce Political Whores (aka the Florida Republican Party) to hand Yeb 98 convention delegates on a silver platter.
Yeb Bush has absolutely NOTHING to lose by staying in the presidential race (anything can happen).
Is it a longshot ? Absolutely.
Has Karl Rove already planned for this scenario ? Absolutely.
Will Dr. Ben Carson endorse Yeb Bush when the good doctor is "finished" ? Absolutely.
As a romantic interest once told me ... "It's All About the Money" ... perfectly applicable to Yeb Bush, Ben Carson, and Karl Rove.

If you go back to how this country was supposed to be he is more than qualified to be President. He is 1000 times more qualified than those of the political class that have put us in the present crisis. The political class put the country in this disastrous position what makes you think they have any desire to get us out of this situation??? They live off of this condition. They get rich from it! Why would they change it?!?
No drip drip drip. It may say something in the book which I haven’t read yet but I have watched the movie several times and there is nothing about Mandela in the movie.
My bad, it was the documentaries. Never watched the movie.
Your father-in-law was really in the THICK of it too, I think, as all knew how important the roads were for bringing in the tanks and artillery.
His brothers just did their duty as Americans, as so many men did. God bless them all.
You are 100% correct, MNJohnnie.
Well put.
Yes.
Even his brothers (who were in the Infantry in Europe and the Pacific) would give him a hard time about what fun he had in the war. They were always wet and moved from one s-hole to the next.
Not so much him...he said he rarely slept on the ground and always had a good air raid shelter dug nearby. I guess when you are running the bulldozers you don’t need to “dig ditches.”
Well, my dad was older and a foreigner and didn't have to serve. But he loved his adopted country so much that he volunteered. Unfortunately he got malaria while in North Africa. It didn't kill him because he was an extremely healthy and fit man in his early 30's.
But, as malaria will do, it damaged his heart and he died too young from heart trouble, brought on by his long-past malaria.
I STILL miss him.
