Even in what Rush likes to call an utterly chickified political culture, you'd be hard put to improve on the Republican Party's leading presidential candidate being taken out by an intercontinental ballistic tampon.
But not so fast... Here's the first post-debate poll from NBC News:
Trump 23%
Cruz 13%
Carson 11%
Fiorina 8%
Rubio 8%
Bush 7%
Walker 7%
So the top four are three non-politicians and my fellow Canadian. Great work, Republican establishment! Looks like we're gonna need a bigger tampon.
The sheer stupidity of the last 48 hours ought to be embarrassing to any self-governing people. Once the fake-o vapors of the Age of Outrage go bipartisan you might as well forget about America's future. Even if you think Trump did intend it as a time-of-the-month innuendo, so what? Who cares? I don't want Erick Erickson's old-time menstrual show trying to outbid the left in shriveling and narrowing the bounds of what's "acceptable". Because in the early 21st century the shrill little twerps shrieking "You can't say that!" are a far bigger problem than the stuff they object to. Let's suppose Erick Erickson got his way - and that for the first time in the history of the republic or indeed any other free society the leading candidate of a major party was destroyed by one highly ambiguous supposed menstrual crack. Is that likely to improve the quality of either public life in this country or those attracted to it? Or would it lead it to American politics becoming even more weird and detached from reality and just a con-game for freaks, hangers-on and the consultant-industrial complex?

New NBC News/Survey Monkey Poll: Donald Trump Still In The Lead After Debates

On with the circus!
Trump/Cruz: Entry of the Gladiators!

Bloody Megyn led her show with a half-minute snipe at Trump, about her not apologizing for her “journalism”. Megyn is still leading with the bleeding, she doesn’t realize that good “journalists” don’t become the story!
HILARIOUS!!
That's a keeper.
Mark Steyn is one of the greatest journalists of our generation
I believe the bleeding "wherever" was Megyn's foot, after she shot herself.
Well, I was really put off by Trump’s innuendos, especially his disengenous suggestion that he meant “the nose”, and that if anybody thought anything else they were sick. I thought this had to be it.
But no! I guess the idea is that all of this kind of stuff is not to be considered. We’ll see.
“... menstrual crack ...”
Something is just wrong with that...
Nor does her Co moderator Brett who blamed the fact that the American people didn’t get to hear enough about the issues on Mr Trump. Absolutely no responsibility for his own action.
Had hoped that he had been a little bit contrite. So turned off that show and wrote a couple of more comments for the summwe interns to read
In spite of Mr Trumps conversation and the promise made to him the minions are still not responsible for their actions nor are they journalist.
Bias toward “we the people” is still evident from the once “fair and balanced; network
JAKE TAPPER: But are you offended by him personally attacking Megyn Kelly or are you offended by how many are interpretation -- interpreting his remarks about blood?
CARLY FIORINA: They were completely inappropriate and offensive comments, period.
We got the bubble headed
Bleached blonde
Comes on at five
She can complains about mysogyny
With the blood in her eyes
It’s interesting when campaigns die
Give us dirty laundry
ICBT!!! Rotflmao
I think it was tongue in cheek. No, wait ...
Bfl
Freakin hilarious
