Well the wine from dinner did not sufficiently anesthetize us for the debate so we are going to crack open the cinnamon whisky at 8:25 PM and tune in for awhile.
Only 0.75% of the tickets were made available to Cougar High students.
I will bet Trump has something on Cruz and Rubio that he can use if they come after him. And I will be they know it. Especially Rubio.
I would prefer Cruz, but the media has decided the flamboyant, in-your-face, Trump is the best bet to lose to the PIAPS.
It’s always the same story every 4 years, the media decides what GOP candidate is the most likely to lose to the democrap and that’s who ends up as the GOP nominee,
Rubio is a phony and refused to insist in his amnesty plan to put a restriction on illegals allowed to stay, not being able to vote for at least 10 - 15 years as part of the price they would pay for having entered illegally.
He’s willing to give the democraps what they want, 12 million new voters as soon as possible. That will spell the end of GOP and the country we were raised in. 50 years later, the left wins and the America of our forefathers is gone.
If all that matters is winning the election, then a Rubio/Kasich ticket (in either order) is unbeatable. This of course exposes the idiocy of the ‘win-at-any-cost’ strategy.

Correctamundo.
“RUBIO must have offered the VP slot to Romney!!”
Or vice versa.
If all that matters is winning the election, then a Rubio/Kasich ticket (in either order) is unbeatable. This of course exposes the idiocy of the win-at-any-cost strategy.
As they go on and on they start to take less and less importance to almost to the point of irrelevance, but it's all the GOPee has left.
If the GOP wins Ohio and Florida, they win the election. Romney didn’t win either.
When will the RNC have some moderators like TGO, Sean, Rush and Laura.
The lead up to this debate is already pathetic.
I was really sick the last time they debated and didn’t watch it. I’m not sick now, but I’m not going to watch tonight’s debate either. I think the candidates have debated enough, besides, these debates were never about the issues, but about creating drama and bringing Trump down.
Cruz is on his home turf tonight. He will be great.
I have liked Cruz but I’m really tuned off by his failing to get his NBC eligibility decided in the federal court. If he’s all about what’s good for America, he should have taken care of that issue by now instead of gambling on the possibility of being DQ’d after being nominated, possibly giving the election to the socialists. That shows me personal political ambition above America’s future.
I would not miss this one for anything. I like watching Trump play the Last Year at Marienbad game.
Yes, it could get very ugly. The GOP establishment and the liberal media’s last chance to destroy Trump. He can expect to be ambushed. The entire debate will be pointed against Trump, with Rubio and Cruz being prompted to attack Trump. Only Carson and Kasich who will try and remain above the circus.
Waiting for it to start, listening to the heads natter on.
Guess we’ll soon see if the RNC packed the hall with its droogs again.
