Not to unduly stress out Reince Priebus and the other members of the Republican establishment, but there are only 71 days until the Iowa caucuses, and only eight more days after that until New Hampshire. That's of now, Sunday, Nov. 22, a day on which a slew of new polls show that Donald Trump has improved his leads in both of those states and nationally.
Seventy-one days ago, the national Republican front-runner was ... Donald Trump, who led by 13.8 points in the Real Clear Politics polling average. Seventy-one days before that, though, the front-runner was Jeb Bush. If you add Bush's national polling average to that of the second-place candidate, Ben Carson, Trump would still be winning by two points.
This is something of a reversal. Here's the long-term trend of Trump's lead in both states and nationally.

Many are capable of doing that. So is a junior high "blogger" on a twenty dollar Tracphone.

That sounds exactly like something Obama would say when he has been caught and is on the defensive.

You misspelled 'virile'. Someone didn't watch the Barney DVDs, which are both entertaining and educational.

I guess you would know.
I defer to your superior knowledge of what Obama says in private.

You continue to make my point. You can quit now.
Besides, you’re just wasting your time.

Oh, I think answering your soggy little jabs is a good use of my time for the moment.

I’m referring to how Obama attacked the Republicans who are critical of his Syrian Refuge policies. “They are afraid of infants and widows....” etc.
