WTF? How Karl Rove and the Establishment Lost...Again
Chin up Starboard!
Fewer men have defeated greater enemies for the cause of Freedom and Liberty.
Now is our time.
Shut up Rove.
I think Priebus predated Walker's rise to power didn't he.
Decided to take a look, and found this. Ouch.
Granted, it's Wikipedia so read with some skepticism:
On Sunday December 5, 2010, Priebus stepped down as general counsel for the Republican National Committee (RNC). The next day he sent a letter to all 168 voting members of the RNC announcing his candidacy for chairman. Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker supported Priebus' bid from the beginning, attributing the party's victories in Wisconsin to "Priebus' leadership and involvement in the grassroots Tea Party movement that swept the state and the nation"
I'm not making predictions. But if it goes the way I'm thinking, after those big early primary days the GOPe set up, from which point no conservative could ever build enough delegates thereafter, Trump will say something so stupid and outrageous (which the mediots will then amplify) that it leaves Jeb or Walker the last men standing. That Walker is already bowing out of winner-take-all Florida is especially telling. I'm guessing he's doing it to help Rubio get that one. If he does, Jeb is done. Then it switches to Walker.
Maybe I need a tag line pumping up Rubio in Florida?
OTOH, Rubio has been advertising heavily in California. Leave it to RINOs to seek a nomination victory in States they could never carry in the general election.
I wish there was somebody I could support in this nomination fight, but so far, it's a matter of whom I find is most concerning that is influencing my leanings. I don't desire any of them as President, not even Cruz. That TPA vote really sticks in my craw.
I hear ya. I thought our time was in 2014 but the GOP stabbed us in the back big time. Yet again.
Do not underestimate these people; they are capable of great treachery.
Damn boy beer come shooting right out my nose! Rove is the little girly man you beat in the parking lot for shooting off his mouth.
Reagan did have his terms as governor to point to, but Trump has his career of building a personal fortune off Real Estate ventures to point to.
I think that pretty much equals a push. Success in the Business environment could be seen to (forgive the term) trump Reagan’s experience also.
We do trash folks for having never had to run a business before, so I think that’s a fair assessment, not to detract from Reagan.
He understood this dynamic and addressed it himself regarding the government and private sector.
I don’t know! But if you have a turd with hair you need to get to the doctor pronto.
Rove works for The Cheap Labor Express.
It’s all about the amnesty and open border.
Dismiss everything he says.
Leave it to RINOs to seek a nomination victory in States they could never carry in the general election.

Good point. In the national voting contest between the makers and the takers the math is not in our favor It will be essential therefore to be smart about nomination a ticket that has a chance of carrying key electoral states.
Really, Rove and what is the percentage of people who would never, ever, ever in a billion years vote for Jeb? From both the left, right and center. I’d wager it’s much higher than 30%.
Perspective: Trump’s negatives has dropped 40% in 30 days. Rove peddles nonsense.
Okay, well we see the timing along the same lines, if this should take place.
I agree with the projected ramifications. Sadly Cruz doesn’t seem to be gaining traction. Only time will tell there, but we’ve seen the GOPe out themselves on him.
Your comments on Rubio’s plans for California are particularly interesting to me, because California hasn’t been a nomination factor in decades. Why would he possibly head there?
Perhaps the answer lies in him knowing something we don’t, the planed time of departure.
Walker is Mitt Romney with bad hair. :-)
LOL!
Lots of delegates, lots of Latinos, winner-take-all.
Ha ha!
