Currently there is a huge struggle going on in his mind. I don't know what connection he has with Cruz or some of the other DC power brokers, but it seems he took the wrong fork, went deep up the trail, and now realizes he is on the wrong ridge, eyeing the right one in the horizon.

Very elegantly stated.

“Brit just said that Paul Ryan is a true-blue conservative.”

I hung on through Wallace because I wanted to see Manafort who did great, but When I heard Brit make that comment, I laughted changed the channel.

They can’t tell the truth about Ryan enabling Obama’s America Last agenda.

Its an old trick. Hillary uses it all the time. They lose a huge issue, something like Benghazi and then they get a willing press to clam just the opposite!!Not really new.It’
s what losers do when they can’t win.

[going hot]

"....sore losers like Cruz and Kasich...."

Never dreamed or imagined they would be thrown out on their ears, and D. Trump would win all the marbles.

Great post its hard to diagnose what limbaugh is up to. All you can do is take a close look at what he says and does and try and figure out from there. Friday I couldn't figure out anything he was saying for third party to who knows,then I took a look at what Beck had done and said and it all started to make sense.

Limbaugh copys Beck from time to time hard to say why. Unless a number of them are all aligned with the kabal,NWO types, open borders,etc. With Limbaugh if he doesn't know what to do its easy to copy a major figure. I have,caught him doing that numerous times.

I use to adore Bit Hume when he use to bitch slap Juan Williams every week on the Fox News Sunday panel.

He is a real Republican elitist now.

[patriotspride]

Paul Manafort is must watch - just to see how “fair & balanced” Faux News is with him & Trump.

Great choice/spokesperson for The Donald.

He handled smarmy Chris perfectly. He won’t be taken off point, or fall for the obvious takedown that Wallace thinks he’s pulling off.

[rodguy911]

Stuffy Stephy has about 71 members of his panel this morning. Its almost stupid. No one will ever know who is talking who they are or what? Typical DBM trying to load a show with lefties.

[rodguy911]

Rich Lowry is a complet putz saying that the size of govt. will not matter in a Trump govt.he’s nuts with bias.

[Eddie01]

“Hey, Brit, let’s talk about Ryan voting for the huge budget bill that further funded Planned Parenthood, Obamacare, and increased the federal debt.”

Don’t forget the Syrian refugees!

[BuckeyeGOP]

I want to bang my head against a wall when I watch Trump sometimes. I think, “this is the easiest thing to respond to”, and yet he instead diverts and deflects.

Point in case: Interviewed by Stephy this morning on ABC. He was asked how he has any credibility in bashing corporations for moving overseas when many of his company products are also manufactured overseas.

He fumbled around and said some incoherent thing about how his make america great again hats and other campaign paraphernalia is manufactured here....unless it’s a cheap knock off...yada yada yada

This is such a softball question that is not only easy to answer, it totally makes Trump’s point on the issue.

Simple answer: That’s a great question George. As a businessman I am frustrated that I am basically forced to manufacturer overseas due to the hostile manufacturing environment we currently have. I’d love to be able to manufacture here, but it doesn’t make sense under the current regulatory and punitive tax laws. This is one of the reason’s I am running for president, to change that so companies, like mine, find benefit in moving back here and producing here.

c’mon, this is soooo easy. The fact that he doesn’t seem to find these simple answers makes me wonder about what his advisers are doing and makes me nervous as hell about debating Shillary.

[Morgan in Denver]

The left and the media/press has been working to redefine conservatives for years. Neo-cons, who used to be fringe are supposedly now mainstream conservatives.

The problem is, these idiots forgot to admit to the rest of us what they were doing. Now it’s coming back to bite them.

[going hot]

The media generally is for socialism, ruled by them, the elite. Their political arm is the dem party. That is what the process has evolved into.

Rush was a lighthouse, with a powerful light, exposing the entire operation for what it was.

that is what endeared him to so many listeners.

Now, I am not so sure he has it in his heart. The biting wit often turns into ramblings.

Maybe just jaded, or tired of continual 24/7 pressure, he is relenting to the left?

Just as he came on the scene and transformed talk radio, I hope Mr. Trump kicks over chairs and turns over tables in DC.

God, I hope and pray for such a delivery.

And I sincerely hope Rush finds his way home.

[Alas Babylon!]

... Stephy says shouldn;t Bill be off the table, if Melania is?

Bull. Clinton was a democrat president for 8 years, and now his wife is running, touting herself as his logical and ideological successor.

I always wondered WHY a spouse of a politician who runs for office, gets a pass like some house wife or working stiff husband?

Didn't Bill Clinton declare about Hillary when he ran in 1992 that "You get two for the price of one!"?

He's fair game. He's a politician, that George has swept "incidents" under the rug to mask his depravity for years.

Sorry, George, "Game over, man!"

Much-anticipated challenger to U.S. Senator John McCain (R-AZ), state Senator Kelli Ward (R-Lake Havasu City) announced early Thursday that she is officially exploring a 2016 run for the U.S. Senate.

Ward supporters have been strongly encouraging state Senator and military wife Ward to run. In a message to supporters, Ward relayed, “I am receiving huge support from the grassroots.”

Ward promised supporters, “I would run to give Arizona a powerful voice in the fight against Obamacare” and would “stand up for the enforcement of our immigration laws and to secure the border.” In a March interview with Breitbart News, Ward reminded the public of McCain’s 2010 campaign promise to “build the danged fence,” a promise that has not been fulfilled.

Her letter continues:

I would run to support the Constitution, smaller government and individual liberty. I would run as a positive, passionate, principled non-career politician. I would run to join a fresh, new generation of leaders in DC and end the stronghold that career politicians have had on our government for decades. I would run to be the voice that so many Arizonans long for from their representation in the US Senate. I would run to be your voice.

She welcomes prayers, comments and advice while laying out her plans to “continue to travel the state to meet and listen to voters.”

Ward closed her announcement, stating:

Informed, motivated voters lead the way to restore government of, for, and by the people. If we want Arizona represented in DC and not DC represented in Arizona, it is up to all of us. Success will take time, motivation, hard work, and money. Financial support is imperative in a David and Goliath battle.

Conservative Republican Club of Kingman President Larry Schiff said of Ward, “I have often heard of her described as a rising star.” Schiff previously suggested Ward would need $10 million to overcome the McCain political machine, a task not insurmountable, given McCain’s diminished campaign war chest. A 2014 year end FEC report listed a campaign committee balance of $2 million.
..........
We need to nationalize this campagin. Its the only chance Ward has. Much of the country wants to get rid of McCain we need to help it along.

[going hot]

That’s the thing, what are they using for the carrot, and what for the stick?

[patriotspride]

Beware of those who want to “paper over” or “heal” the split. They are driving the infection deeper, not getting it out.

---

Well stated. The Donald is the doctor who sees the long term implications and wants to heal it. The GOPE only wants band aids, and a pat on the head

[rodguy911]

Good post.We all wonder the same thing. What will Rush say next.?

[patriotspride]

see Manafort is back I really like this guy and think he will go really far helping the Donald.

Me too Rod. Enjoyed meeting you the other day. Always great to make a live connection.
