Candidate Donald Trump appeared in Birmingham Alabama today. “Sweet Home Alabama” !!

A new poll from Oklahoma shows what a disconnect there can be when using samples of “likely voters” (full poll data pdf below). Donald Trump leads with 27%, Ted Cruz second with 18.3%, Carson in third with 17.5%, Rubio fourth with 16%.
A tightening field with Cruz gaining from Carson’s slips. While Trump leads with all demographics, genders and age ranges (dominating the youth vote), the internals show Carson and Cruz base is within “very religious” segment of the Oklahoma electorate but only minimally stronger than Donald Trump – which is interesting. Overall Oklahoma looks like a four person race.

OKLAHOMA CITY – Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton remain the top choices for president among Oklahoma voters, according to an exclusive News 9/News On 6 poll.
If Oklahoma’s March 1 primary elections were held today, 27.1 percent of state Republicans say they would vote for Trump. Clinton controls nearly half of the Democrat primary vote, 46.6 percent, according to the poll. (more…)
It will probably not be up long – so here it is:
Regarding the segment with Melania Trump: Prior Prediction/Concern

What a novel concept. We believe in liberty; we believe in freedom; we believe in the rule of law; we believe in being innocent until proven guilty…. we believe in freedom – but increasingly, our government does not.
It is becoming increasingly clear, there is a clash of ideologies between the Islamic East and the Secular/Judea-Christian West. The former openly declaring war and Jihad, the latter refusing to believe/accept it.
The media narratives are nothing if not predictable – The latest NBC Poll (pdf below) reflects the preferred media candidate shifting. Ben Carson on the decline, Ted Cruz rising with the assist of disenfranchised Carson supporters, Rubio steady mid-range and Jeb comfortably playing possum.
Captain Obvious says: if you look at longer term NBC/Survey Monkey polling you find this current poll positioning is essentially right where the top-tier was in August just before Operation Hummingbird kicked in.

What that reflects is exactly what we’ve been outlining. The shaking of the field is nothing more than media grabbed the candidates like a snow globe – shook em’ up – and now the race settles right back where it was originally when the debates started. See: (more…)

OK folks, we knew it was coming – We knew the GOPe would eventually unleash the Republican “Mississippi Strategy” to attack Donald Trump, and it appears they have announced their intents using the NDfA Super-PAC as their vehicle.
Game ON !
Take Notice all ye of NDfA association – we will identify you, your businesses, your business interests, etc. and we will outline your attachments. You may have money, but there are more of us than you. To quote a prior adversary:
…”The one thing I will tell you is you don’t want those damn Tree House people up your ass!”…
(Via Politico) John Kasich has attacked Donald Trump relentlessly in debates and now his super PAC is planning to invest $2.5 million in the most aggressive takedown of the poll leader yet — on behalf of an increasingly anxious GOP establishment.
The attack, according to a blueprint shared with POLITICO, will play out over the next two months on radio, TV, mail and online in New Hampshire. Strategists with the pro-Kasich group, called New Day for America, say the budget for the anti-Trump campaign is likely to grow.
The offensive comes as some in the GOP are beginning to plot how to combat the real estate mogul and entertainer, who many are convinced would essentially deliver the White House to Democrats if he were the nominee. In launching the effort, the group hopes to position Kasich, who has lagged in the Republican contest and is searching for momentum, as a central Trump antagonist.
“We will be the tip of the spear against Trump,” said Matt David, a spokesman for the super PAC. (more…)
Hillary Clinton gave a BIG National Security Policy speech today in New York at the Council of Foreign Relations. Everything about the event was such a significant fail, it cannot be accidental. Everything was a fail, both the optics and the substance.
Secretary Clinton delivered an awkwardly high-school-like speech presented with a particularly concerning unfamiliarity the content. So bizarre is the delivery that it deserves some highlight. Here’s the full speech, but you only need to watch the first three minutes. (Note – pay attention to the wording at 02:40 “Radical Jihadism”):
“Radical Jihadism”? What the heck is that?
What would non-radical jihadism look like?
This is a former Secretary of State; a person running for the office of the Presidency, and she comes up with “radical jihadism“, seriously?
A large sample national poll conducted by IPSOS for Reuters (full pdf below) reflects an increasingly obvious reality – Donald Trump is the dominant candidate with a vast and growing support base.
Significantly, the data also shows: five times as many independent voters choose Donald Trump over Marco Rubio and/or Ted Cruz.

Political followers have noticed GOPe strategy modified and they stopped attacking Trump directly. Instead they shifted their marginalization approach by trying to attach Trump to candidate Ted Cruz.
Every effort by Team Trump should be made to keep Ted Cruz at arms length. We have previously outlined the reason(s) why Cruz’s electoral strategy is doomed to defeat. There is no winning electoral map within the campaign strategy of Ted Cruz which is based on a very narrow slice of the electorate. (more…)
It would appear that Donald Trump got the Secret Service detail just in the nick of time. One of the protesters from Trump’s campaign stop in Massachusetts yesterday is named Peter Rondon. He was arrested and convicted for trying to bomb a Marine Recruitment center in ’05: A Domestic Terrorist !

MASSACHUSETTS – […] “Police removed Rondon after he stood on his chair and started yelling “racist,” according to a police report. Police said he was deliberately pushing and bumping people around him.
“Rondon was forcefully removed from the event by police.
“Court records show Rondon was arrested in 2005 after being found in a third floor bathroom of a recruiting facility on Park Avenue with four gallons of gasoline connected by several wires. (more…)
