?For the record, Tom Brady was framed,? he says, to inevitable cheers about the Patriots quarterback. ?I?m not willing to pander on much? ? laughter ? ?but on that, Tom Brady was framed, and I have it on good authority that Hillary Clinton was responsible.? More cheers. ?Why else do you think she destroyed her emails?? This is not actually funny, but for New Hampshire Republicans, it amounts to a double-stuffed serving of red meat.

Can we just start quoting Hutch's insanity for posterity's sake. What an absolute idiot who knows nothing about politics.

Donald Trump is poised for the strongest primary performance in modern history

The usual response to these sorts of claims is that polling this far out doesn't really mean much. Contests can get especially volatile as we approach an election date, nobody is paying attention yet, and Trump is riding primarily on name-recognition. But the distinctive feature of the 2016 Republican primary polling has not been its volatility but its stability ? at least at the top, where Trump sits


What is scary is this thread was surely started in jest…but more and more it looks like he'll be the nom


I did see a funny bumper sticker today (probably been around for a decade but new to me)

Against Trump," declared the cover of the National Review, a leading voice of the American right founded by the late commentator William F Buckley.

"Trump is a philosophically unmoored political opportunist who would trash the broad conservative ideological consensus within the GOP in favor of a free-floating populism with strong-man overtones," it said in a lead editorial.

The publication followed up with essays by 22 conservative figures who took turns denouncing Trump, the frontrunner in the race for the Republican presidential nomination.

Calling him "astoundingly ignorant," a "charlatan," a "glib egomaniac" and plain "crazy," the conservatives expressed revulsion at the prospect of a President Trump – and what he might do to the nation and to the Republican brand.

With just over a week to go before the first presidential nominating vote in Iowa, their views also reflected the panic that Trump has set off within a Republican establishment deeply at odds with the celebrity billionaire's angry, populist message

National Review is a failing publication that has lost it's way. It's circulation is way down w its influence being at an all time low. Sad!

Does his responses ever sound any different?  I think he has an app that responds to everything.

Santorum acknowledges end might be near

Really, what makes you think that Rick?
that you can't even get a single percentage point in any poll might be a clue


looking like Cruz and Trump are going to go head to head
Rubio still eking out double digits in the polls, but I doubt he'll due well in the guns and butter crowd

poor jeb, all that money and no real support.  Wonder how the fat-cats who funded that $100 million super pac are feeling about their investment now. 
It is good to know you can't totally buy an election

Endorsements don't really mean much per se, but this chart is so lopsided against polling

Republican establishment has just about zero pull with the voters (or pollsters) is seems

Well, he'd probably lose a few if he shot a white guy. But a brown skinned gentleman in a turban? He probably hits 45%

The one thing that always comes to mind when I see this guy? I can't believe that he once ran a marathon.

Why Julian doesn't fat shame this guy (or Christie) is beyond me. I can only think that he simply enjoys picking on fat women more than fat men.
