Declining Fox News: Paul Ryan Running Scared in Final Days Ahead of Primary Election
Breitbart ^ | August 4, 2014 | by MATTHEW BOYLE

Posted on 08/04/2016 1:52:08 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Wisconsin — House Speaker Paul Ryan’s policy record is collapsing among voters here under scrutiny from Republican challenger Paul Nehlen, so badly that Ryan is refusing to appear even on the Fox News Channel. “We know Speaker Ryan, he’s been on this program many, many times,” Fox and Friends host Steve Doocy opened an interview with Nehlen on Thursday morning by saying. “We invited him to be on today.”

Later in the interview with Nehlen, Doocy divulged even more: “We did invite Speaker Ryan to appear today, and he declined.”

The fact that Ryan is shunning former media allies and generally refusing interviews except with his closest friends on local radio shows how terrified he and his team are ahead of next week’s primary showdown with Nehlen. No recent polling has been done on the race, so it’s unclear whether Nehlen is within striking distance here on Tuesday. But Ryan’s team is certainly taking nothing for granted, especially after last cycle’s embarrassing loss by then House Majority Leader Eric Cantor to now Rep. Dave Brat (R-VA).

Republicans party-wide are aware that Nehlen may win, and are prepared to support him if he does beat Ryan.

Thank God, Judge Judy is back on. My local fox station cut Obama off mid uh and went back to normal programming. It was very abrupt so maybe they were sick of his uhhhhhs too.

From the Huffington Post which we shun here for some reason...

HuffPost is shunned for obvious reasons. There an ultra-Left relentless Trump bashing Media outlet.

Vote Trump!

“Unfortunately Ryan will probably win....
But we can hope and pray...”

Ryan wins, Trump endorses Ryan because Trump won’t endorse or sit out for the rat nominee. Trump says he didn’t want to get involved in a race among Republicans.

Game Trump and the media once again looks stupid.

Isn’t WI the state that that expert determined had had rigged vote counts for at least the last several elections?

I wonder if the Ryan team is confident at heart actually because of that.

Yeah, I was hoping for Crime Watch Daily. Instead he is droning on and on...

back on topic: Should Ryan lose, it couldn’t happen to a more deserving politician.

I know he should load up a unmarked plane filled with DDT and spray those mosquitoes himself. After it is all done and they ask Hillary about it she can explain “oh that’s old news”.

Obama is a petty, small man. I have nothing but disgust for him.

Perhaps no one informed Lyin Ryan that Republicans control both houses of Congress; so he is not under any obligation to lick Obama’s .... Um ... Boots.

I think Ryan just has a penchant for licking that man’s ..... Um .... Boots.

It sounds like a staged news conference with planned questions.
