A liberal friend is very concerned about the Republican Party. He tells me that Donald Trump will make it impossible for anybody anywhere running under the R column to win election. Even a dogcatcher in Podunk is doomed!
The New York Times shows a similar concern. Surely written with furrowed brow, its front page worries because Sparring in GOP Rises and because Rift Grows Wide as Republicans Abandon Trump. It joins two other concerned lefties, the Huffington Post and CNBC, in declaring that the GOP is unraveling.
All stand ready to help sponsor a dignified funeral, but that wont be necessary. Their reports of the Republican Partys death are premature. Very premature.
A new Quinnipiac poll tells the inconvenient truth. Trump and Hillary Clinton are tied in each of the three key swing states of Ohio, Pennsylvania and Florida.
The breakdown in Florida reveals how truly close the race is. As Politico puts it, Clinton has a 13-point advantage among women, 48 percent to 35 percent, while Trumps lead among men is also 13 points, 49 percent to 36 percent. Each gets 39 percent of independent voters, while Trump wins big among whites, and Clinton wins big among nonwhites. The candidates have identical net negative approvals of minus 20 points, 37 percent to 57 percent.
With the poll showing Bernie Sanders doing better against Trump than Clinton (and Sanders winning the West Virginia primary on Tuesday), I myself am growing concerned about the unraveling of the Democratic Party!

"He doesn't know it's a damn show! He thinks it's a damn fight!"
I mean in the form of indictments.
She’ll never be indicted. And she won’t be president either.
Trump lost the support of about five thousand Republican insiders. Meanwhile to date he has attracted record, unprecedented numbers of Democrats and Independents to support him while retaining the core Republican base of support. Yet if he wants to win, he will have to spend heavily on ballot security and anti fraud measures. Hillary will do virtually anything to win.
Boo Yay! Hey, is this where Howard Stern got that? ;)
I think Trump had better spend some serious dough on personal security, as well. He’s alarming a large contingent of serious people who aren’t into messing around.
NBCNews exit polling for West Virginia http://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2016-election/primaries/WV shows that 14% of Sanders voters identify as conservative. Either these are some mighty confused conservatives or Operation Chaos II is in full swing.
-—If people who dont usually vote are going to the polls to vote in Trump, how exactly does this hurt the R dog catcher and state assembly candidates??

We know it doesn’t. The R’s were going to get their clocks cleaned after passing the omni-bus and rubber stamping everything Obama wanted.
They are trying to blame their upcoming losses (and the cleaning of house) on Trump. They are either too stupid to accept responsibility, or too arrogant. I think it’s a combination of both.
I don’t see the R’s losing too much ground (some for sure), what I see is a changing of the guard, with incumbent R’s being primaried out. To them, that’s still a loss.
I know a lot of union guys who are going to vote for Trump, but they won’t vote straight GOP ticket, the GOP at large is still too globalist and anti-union for the average blue collar worker.
Hillary reminds me of a baseball team favored to win the World Series that loses the last ten regular season games and limps into the playoffs.
After it gets annihilated in the first playoff series all of the “experts” say: “Who could have seen this coming?”.
All of Hillary’s advantages are in the warped minds of the talking heads—they just won’t carry over to the real world.
Mrs. BJ Clinton can only win through manipulation. The polls are rigged and the media is also rigged. Everybody knows she’s a criminal but the democratic leadership has been bought and paid for. People know the truth and yet they still vote for her.
ASKING A LIBERAL TO HELP A CONSERVATIVE, IS LIKE ASKING A CANNIBAL TO HELP YOU FIX DINNER.
The dictionary defines Harridan as: “A scolding, vicious Woman”. I rest my Case.
Rach-Rach Madcow unraveling too? So very sad.
They're concerned about preserving EXACTLY WHERE AND HOW they got their wealth and privilege.
The polling gap is between women and Trump vs. men and Clinton. Trump can parade countless female employees of his who will testify to the man’s character and the responsibilities (and equal pay) which he entrusted to them. Hillary’s male character witnesses will include Secret Service agents she’s cursed out and abused, and one pol in particular she called a “f***ing Jew bastard” to his (non-Jewish) face.
If any Freepers are married to a liberal, hide their car keys on Election Day!
Just kidding, that would be very Cruz of me.
Clueless mainstream media being clueless mainstream media.
It's hard to believe that Rachael Maddow said something that intelligent. There must be some mistake.
