Regardless of whether you support or hate Donald Trump, the transparency of the Fox agenda was brutally evident from the outset. Even Instapundit, who is not the least bit friendly toward the Trump campaign, noted:

I was particularly disappointed with the ridiculous “gotcha!” questions posed by Megyn Kelly and Chris Wallace. Can Fox News please focus on the issues and not try to play favorites.

The opening question, the insufferable “will you make a pledge” question, was specifically targeted to put Donald Trump on the outside.
Remember what I previously said about the goal of Isolation through division and fear? Yeah, that.  Well, every bit of it played out exactly as was predicted – REVIEW Before Watching DEBATE RE-RUN.

Oh she’ll be on the main stage next time. Between the debate performance and this going viral, Fiorina is going to rise rapidly.

Yeah, biased much.

How do you “mistakenly” not picture the FRONTRUNNER ?   But media bias is a myth right?  (Link)

Given the transparent, albeit predictable, bias brutally evident in last nights debate, I’m going to leave this stuck to the top of the page for half the day.

In Part ONE I explained why Donald Trump’s candidacy was essentially a “nothing to lose” decision for conservatives, because all paths lead to Jeb Bush.
In Part TWO I explained why there is a severity within my position.
Here in Part THREE, as requested, I’ll expand for those who remain critical; and for those who are finding themselves called out as “ridiculous” for having the audacity to present such a non-traditional approach.
Starting with an actual defense (via comment) left by someone who presents the counter argument to my position of the GOP needing to be torn down.  The counter-argument encapsulates many traditional political followers. Here is their point:

First of all, there a difference between the GOP and the Democrats. If there had been a GOP president instead of Obama, we would not have Obamacare, or all the regulations he’s issued, or all the idiotic DOJ civil rights investigations, or the two liberal SC justices he has appointed (which in turn lead to liberal SC decisions for years to come).
Second of all, destroying the GOP as it exists today will only lead to a smaller minority party which will never win a presidential contest, and probably gift the Democrats with permanent control of Congress.
Finally, Donald Trump wrote in 2000 that he favored a single-payer healthcare system like Canada, and told O’Reilly in 2012 that illegals should be given a pathway to citizenship. Viewing him as a “tool’ to defeat Obamacare and amnesty can most charitably be described as bizarre.
Politics is a game where you don’t get everything you want, and you frequently must settle for a choice that’s simply better than the alternative. You can’t just take your ball and go home.

Various forms of this argument are found dispersed amid the various blogs and comment sections therein; but essentially the essential argument is the same.  So here’s the intellectual reply. (more…)

I’ll put up another thread prior to 9pm for the big debate:

Infectious positive broad-base “crossover” support can’t be purchased.  The enthusiasm for change is growing exponentially.  The “Salty Girls” exemplify:

The Western Center for Journalism points out that Donald Trump enters debate arena today with incredible polling data from the South reflecting the grassroots disgust with the Republican Establishment and professional political class: (more…)

‘Merica – Robert Gray was so busy working he didn’t even have time to vote for himself.  He never spent a minute campaigning, and never spent a dime on his campaign. After his victory the Mississippi Democrat party, and Mississippi media, had no idea who he was, so they asked him to stop by the capitol for introduction.
JACKSON, Miss. (AP) — The 46-year-old truck driver who won the Democratic nomination for Mississippi governor says he spent nothing on his campaign and knows nobody in politics. He didn’t even vote in the primary because he says he was busy.
Robert Gray can’t explain how he defeated the trial lawyer who was the favored candidate of the party establishment in Tuesday’s primary.
Gray, who has lived in the Jackson area most of his life, visited the state Capitol on Wednesday for what he said was the first time — and it was at the request of reporters trying to answer the biggest question in this Republican-dominated state: Who the heck is this guy? (more…)

The Clintonian parseltongue continues.   First she said “there was never anything classified on her private email server”.  Then she said there was never anything “classified at the time” it was on her email server. Now she claims there was never anything with “classified written on it”, at the time it was on her private email server.
The Clinton’s could debate the verbiage on a stop sign. 
(Via New York Post) The FBI investigation into former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton’s unsecured e-mail account is not just a fact-finding venture — it’s a criminal probe, sources told The Post on Wednesday.
The feds are investigating to what extent Clinton relied on her home server and other private devices to send and store classified documents, according to a federal source with knowledge of the inquiry.
“It’s definitely a criminal probe,” said the source. “I’m not sure why they’re not calling it a criminal probe. (more…)
