My question is, which polls have been THE most accurate in predicting the outcome of the last say five presidential races? Who holds the record for being the most accurate and second question who are they predicting to win this time? I keep hearing that IBD/TIPP Tracking (Trump +2) and LA Times/USC Tracking (Trump +5) have been THE most accurate the most often in predicting the outcome of the last four presidential races -- Are you hearing the same thing. Thanks!!

Don't take my word for it, look and observe for yourself and ask yourself the question, "why are all democrat men such Girly men." When Democrats are faced with their "High Noon" moments they slink away, they shrink under the heat of being a leader and standing up to the "bad guys," they make situations much worse through inaction and failure to lead. This ALWAYS leads to more problems down range. For instance, obama's "lead from behind," and hillary's "not my ball to carry" as the secretary of state over Benghazi -- Clearly not their Marshal Will Kane moments. They...

The countdown begins, we are now down to the last 30 days before the 2016 Republican National Convention and front and center is Governor Kasich -- The Governor of Ohio. The Governor of the state where the 2016 Republican National Convention will be held July 18–21, 2016 at the Quicken Loans Arena in Cleveland, Ohio. Thousands of people that Governor Kasich wanted to vote for him will be in attendance -- The number one question is: "how will he allow them to be treated as guests of his state." How will the Governor work with the Secret Service and Homeland...

As the GOPe (elite/establishment) threatens to/prepares to "Wage War" on the Republican nominee for President we need to be reminded just what the "their (GOPe) best ideas" have given us in the last 24 years: 1992 -- Bush 41 / Quayle -- Thanks to a third party run Perot / Stockdale and their "reform party" we were introduced to Bill Clinton and his "moral-less" behavior in office. The damage of his time in office is still felt today. 1996 -- Dole / Kemp -- Fail! Didn't fight, didn't challenge and basically threw punches like a six year old girl. 2008...

<p>I have talked to a lot of friends of mine and their friends, most retired military and almost all of the men say that there is NO "F'n" way they could ever vote for Hillary. The FEW men I have encountered that say they are voting for Hillary are not what I would consider someone that I would want to have my back if the fhit ever hit the san. Most of these guys have no clue which end is the working end of a hammer.</p>

Soon opening, the Barack Hussein Obama II Memorial Park Much like when Brig. Gen. Montgomery C. Meigs, who commanded the garrison at Arlington House, appropriated the grounds of General Robert E. Lee's mansion on June 15, 1864, for use as a military cemetery. Meigs intention was to render the house uninhabitable should the Lee family ever attempt to return. Much like the punishment that was placed upon General Robert E. Lee and his property to serve as a constant reminder that he was on the wrong side of the war, this Memorial Park is being named in honor of the...

Orozco, 29, a seven-year Omaha police veteran who was working as a detective with the department's fugitive task force, died Wednesday from a gunshot wound that struck her in the chest just above the her bulletproof vest, police said Thursday.

Above all, this irony emerges: Clinton ran on the basis of managerial competence—on her capacity, as she liked to put it, to “do the job from Day One.” In fact, she never behaved like a chief executive, and her own staff proved to be her Achilles’ heel. What is clear from the internal documents is that Clinton’s loss derived not from any specific decision she made but rather from the preponderance of the many she did not make. Her hesitancy and habit of avoiding hard choices exacted a price that eventually sank her chances at the presidency. What follows is...

If these cowards (ISIS or ISIL) were really as tough as they say they are -- Then why must they cover their faces. I mean, if the BS that they are peddling is in the name of Allah or Mohamad then why must they cover their faces unless they are ashamed or cowards. Allah knows who they are, right. So if what they are doing is "justified" why must they cover their faces, unless they are simply just a bunch of limp wristed pants wetting cowards. Are they afraid of someone or something...who, who are these cowards afraid of that...

How ironic, when you change a few words to obama's acceptance speech from 2008, it just fits. "I face this challenge with profound humility, and knowledge of my own limitations. But I also face it with limitless faith in the capacity of the American people. Because if we are willing to work for it, and fight for it, and believe in it, then I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to return America to greatness and to start rebuilding our...

Two Louisville Police Officers are being credited with saving the life of a two-year old boy who was seriously injured after an accident. The family of 2-year old Littson...say the police are their angels...and because of them...their baby boy is happy...healing...and alive. "I want to say them, thank you so much they help my baby, my baby now is happy and has the life."

Emmett Township Public Safety Officer Ben Hall is being called a hero because he didn't give a 25-year-old mom a ticket after pulling her over because her daughter was in the backseat without a booster seat. Officer Hall saw Lexi de Lorenzo driving near downtown Battle Creek with her daughter in the back seat. She had a seatbelt on but Michigan law requires a booster seat for children less than 8 years old.

“[W]e waited too long. We let the Islamic State build up its money, capability and strength and weapons while it was still in Syria,” he said, using an alternate name for the terrorist group. “Then when [ISIL] moved into Iraq, the Sunni Muslims didn’t object to their being there and about a third of the territory in Iraq was abandoned.”

RED HOOK, N.Y. — A Red Hook police officer saved the life of a two-year-old boy after stopping the father’s vehicle. Sgt. Patrick Hildenbrand stopped the speeding vehicle, prompting the father Matthew Morgan to exit the vehicle, frantic about his lifeless son. Hildenbrand put the father and his son in the backseat of his SUV and headed to the hospital at full speed, calling ahead to alert the medical staff

SHENANDOAH, Texas - A quick-thinking, local police officer protected a string of drivers from a car going the wrong way on the highway. Shenandoah police Sgt. Gary Sharpen started zig-zagging back and fourth on Interstate 45 northbound when the Montgomery County Sheriff's deputies called saying there was a driver headed the wrong way against traffic Friday night.

When I spoke just feet away from President Obama about the dangers of political correctness at last year’s National Prayer Breakfast, many were surprised. After all, my background is medicine, not politics. But it doesn’t take a brain surgeon like me to see that America is facing serious problems. And right now, the number one problem is Obamacare. Dropped coverage, failing websites, skyrocketing premiums - the list goes on and on. I wish I could snap my fingers and make Obamacare disappear tomorrow, but we both know that won’t happen. That’s why we’re launching Save our Healthcare - a national...

I like what Allen West said; "What I saw missing from CPAC was an understanding that Americans hunger for a particular image. Americans thought Obama possessed it — an image of concerned and caring leadership. It is an image that exemplifies the best of America and reflects the triumph of the indomitable American individual spirit. It does not spring from numbers and detailed calculations. It is conveyed by someone Americans believe they can invite into their homes who cares for them and their future. The image should not be of someone who offers handouts, but if there is no compelling...

So Johnny is going to the White House today meet with dear leader; To get his marching orders, To give the dear leader his leg hump, To compare lies, or To start supporting obamacare. Why in the hell is he going? Is he going with any other rino's? Is Boehner scared about losing the speakership in 2014?

West, who spent 22 years in the U.S. Army and one term in Congress before losing his bid for reelection in 2012, says he will always be ready to serve his country. “You have to have yourself in a position to be available for your country and to be obedient to God’s will,” he says.

Last night as I watched the president of the United States try and make a case for bombing Syria over the use of chemical weapons I couldn't help but think -- If he is making judgments of the Syrian leader for killing a few thousand civilians (men, women, and children) with the presidents emphasis on children all sorts of alarms went off in my head because while the president is judging the Syrian leader for killing a couple of thousand with gas, then why isn’t it equally fair for the Syrian leader to judge and condemn the US for killing...
