GG - sorry you missed it live! Hope you’ll be able to attend another one.
One solace is that you can be here with your Trump Family tonight :-)
Thanks for the early CSpan tip.
I didn’t listen to Rush.
While I know things can seem different when said orally than written, FWIW, here’s a link to the transcript:
Dirty Trick! Cruz Audio Sabotaged During Fox News Broadcast of New York Speech
LOL!
You’re welcome! I usually like watching the rallies on TV if I can as the screen is bigger and the sound is better; however, CSPAN was the pits during Mr. T’s speech last night, then they apparently lost feed or something, so came back to the puter. Hope their feed works better tonight. I’ve watched a lot of events on CSPAN (1,2 and 3) and don’t recall that happening before (or if it cuts out, it’s back on almost right away). Maybe we should say they were sabotaging the event ;-)
By cutting more of the ends off the permanent color is gone. He doesn’t have that fake color build up as before but seems to have a more nature color. I’m sure you’re really into the discussion of hair nikos1121. LOL
I hadn’t thought about that, but I agree. Not only the color, but there isn’t as much of a swoop/swish in front. He’s been wearing basically the same style for years and it’s him so I wouldn’t want him to change it. This isn’t quite what it was, but going back a bit more to the style of his younger years (like the pic on the Art of the Deal). In this case, a little less is more works better IMHO.
Oh yes, hair Nikos and WWF :-)
New York Marist/WSJ poll just out. Trump 54, Kasich 25, Cruz 16
Basically unchanged since Wednesday poll, except Kasich polling a bit higher and Cruz a bit lower.
Conducted April 10-13, 313 Likely R Voters, MOE = 5.5%
If it is was "mocking" on his part, he really did a poor job of it!
Kasich moving up worries me a little, though this is just 1 poll and they flop around all over the place. I would really like to see Trump get ahead in all districts and take all. I read projections that he’ll get somewhere between 65 (low) and 85 (high) of the delegates. It would be great if he could get all 95, or close to it. I think that’s why he’s campaigning upstate so hard - IIRC that’s where Kasich might do better than other parts of the state.
Oh, sorry - I missed your transcript posting :-(
I tend to agree about the mocking part. That said, I quit listening to Rush sometime ago, but when he mocked something/was being sarcastic, I could always tell be his voice, words, etc.
I don't listen to him all that much anymore, maybe I have lost the gift of understanding him!
Thanks.
I can’t watch it as it says use Chrome, Firefox or something else (don’t recall which browser). I use Internet Explorer and have for years. I like it and don’t want to change or add another, especially Chrome.

New York Province alarmingly forced to choose between flaccid cheapskate Ted Cruise and cannibal warlord Donald Trump in local election.
It's a spoof account, but consistently hilarious.

Oh, you didn’t!
I’m not sure you lost the gift of understanding him, perhaps Rush as lost the gift of understanding us out on “the fruited plain”
