The third debate is being broadcast on CNBC and being held at the Coors Events Center at the University of Colorado Boulder – Live Broadcast CNBC Stations at 8pm/EST.

With this debate being hyped as ‘in Trump’s wheelhouse’, don’t be surprised if this is not the most dangerous debate yet for the guy every media outlet is determined to bring down.
(Via NewsBusters) The RNC may regret its approval of John Harwood as lead moderator for Wednesday night’s GOP presidential debate on CNBC if past history is any guide.
The CNBC anchor and New York Times columnist admitted he and a producer helped make Rick Perry’s infamous “oops” moment even worse. In a November 13, 2011 New York Times column Harwood bragged:
“As he [Perry] scoured his memory, awkwardness drifted into levity. Mr. Perry smiled; I chuckled along with the audience. When Mr. Romney helpfully offered, ‘E.P.A.?’ Mr. Perry repeated it with a joshing wave of his hand. Since our tasks as moderators included keeping the conversation moving, Maria began asking a new question.
CBS Battleground state poll (full pdf below) of South Carolina. Interestingly, the CBS poll data was a joint effort with YouGov polling; and you might note how every MSM outlet had previously dismissed YouGov polling as unreliable. Well, that was when it was necessary to dispute the evidenced support for Mr. Trump. Yeah, funny that….
In order to boost Carly Fiorina CNBC has given her a prime stage placement ahead of Jeb Bush for the upcoming debate. While the move was transparently predictable in media intent, it’s doubtful anything can rescue her campaign. Everyone has caught on that Carly is a big fibber and has a Brian Williams problem.
Jeb Bush was campaigning in South Carolina yesterday when he angrily stomped his feet because everyone was expecting him to work for a nomination. Sad little man. (more…)
We spend a lot of time following Tom Donohue and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce simply because if you trace any tentacle of globalist advancement from DC back to its origin you’ll find Donohue and the CoC at the nucleus.
In a post Citizens United SCOTUS landscape, it was Donohue in 2011 who seized upon the unlimited finance opportunity, used K-Street lobbyists, and formerly announced his plans to attack Tea Party (conservative) insurgent politicians. Donohue followed through on this plan in 2012 with primary support for Mitt Romney, and again another announcement in October of 2013 in advance of the 2014 mid-terms.
To facilitate the prior year’s objectives, and to insure a tight controlling grip on the Republican agenda, it was Donohue who decided to take over CPAC and control the event functions, speakers and approvals for any presentations within the convention. Anti-immigration reform speakers were cast out and blocked from appearing.
It was also Donohue, and the U.S. CoC who paid Senate Leader Mitch McConnell to deliver TPA (fast track trade authority). Similarly it was Tom Donohue (through the Chamber of Commerce) who created the legislative priorities for ’14/’15 to insure McConnell/Boehner never tried to repeal ObamaCare, and pushed for comprehensive immigration reform. Implementation of Common Core education standards is also a CoC priority. (more…)
CNBC Has just announced the debate lineup for the next GOP Debate on October 28th. The RNC sanctioned debate will be held at the Coors Events Center at the University of Colorado Boulder and broadcast live on CNBC at 8pm/EST:
Via CNBC – Today marks the close of the five-week window for determining eligibility based on national polls. The results were based on methodically sound and recognized national polls conducted by NBC, ABC, CBS, Fox, CNN and Bloomberg. The debate will be divided into two parts. (more…)
(Via Morning Consult) […] Donald Trump continues to lead the field seeking the Republican presidential nomination with a whopping 40 percent of the vote, up from 34 percent in last week’s survey. Carson is a distant second, at 14 percent.
[…] No other Republican candidate breaks into double digits. Bush sits in third place at 6 percent, while Rubio and Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) are tied at just 5 percent of the vote. (more…)
CNN has released their latest national poll (full pdf below). Both Donald Trump and Ben Carson add substantive gains to their prior polling support while Bush, Rubio and Fiorina lose substantial support in comparison to prior same poll support.
However, more damaging to the GOPe plans and machinations is a reality the Vulgarian uprising is more enthusiastic and motivated than ever before.
Washington (CNN) – Donald Trump and Ben Carson now stand alone at the top of the Republican field, as Carly Fiorina’s brief foray into the top tier of candidates seeking the GOP nomination for president appears to have ended, a new CNN/ORC poll finds.
Fiorina has lost 11 points in the last month, declining from 15% support and second place to 4% and a tie for seventh place. (more…)
Lots of disclaimers in the methodology of this poll (pdf below). Consider accordingly:
♦ Dr. Ben Carson is taking a 2 week break from campaigning to focus on his book tour – […] According to ABC News, the next time Carson will publicly campaign will be Oct. 28, the day of the GOP debate, which will take place in Colorado. The last time Carson did a public campaign event was Oct. 2.
Carson will also catch up on fundraising events over the next two weeks. He has 20 events scheduled. In the third quarter of this year, Carson raised $20 million.
The latest large scale poll sample from Morning Consult (pdf below) shows that Marco Rubio and Carly Fiorina are now in a downward trend-line having had their moments of exposure and review. Conversely candidate Donald Trump now begins climbing even higher than previous polled results.
(Via Morning Consult) […] Donald Trump retains a wide lead over the rest of the field, with 34 percent of the vote. Retired neurosurgeon Ben Carson clocks in second, at 20 percent, while former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush (R) finishes at 9 percent.
Sens. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and former Hewlett-Packard CEO Carly Fiorina are tied with 5 percent apiece, just ahead of former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee’s (R) 4 percent. (more…)
