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.
Here’s a Live Stream Link:
Senator Marco Rubio, a wholly owned subsidiary of the CoC, is difficult to locate…
WASHINGTON – During a recent town hall in Derry, New Hampshire, a voter asked Sen. Marco Rubio about the large number of Senate votes Rubio has missed in recent months. “I just wanted to know what your reason for that is,” the voter said.
“I’m running for president,” Rubio answered. “I’m here in New Hampshire talking to you.”
Rubio has taken some flak — most notably, from Donald Trump — for not showing up for votes. He’s missed most of October’s votes so far. From April to June of this year, he missed about one-third of the votes, and from July to September, he missed a little over half the votes. That’s not good, even by Senate terms.
The striking thing, though, is that while Rubio is not in Washington, he is also not on the campaign trail in the early states of Iowa, New Hampshire, and South Carolina, at least as much as many of his Republican rivals. (more…)
A confluence of events creates a delicious reality in current presidential politics.
Vice-President Joe Biden will not enter the 2016 race. Meaning DC is certain nothing will come from the special Benghazi committee investigation; thus providing the globalists in Wall Street reassurance toward their ongoing support of Hillary Clinton.
Simultaneously, and ultimately as a consequence of the above, national corporate media polls (full pdf below) now allowed begin to show Donald Trump with overwhelming support:
(Via ABC NEWS) Donald Trump leads the Republican presidential field in the latest ABC News/Washington Post poll, not only in vote preferences but in expectations as well -– a remarkable feat for the non-politician who’s surprised the GOP establishment with his staying power as well as his support. (more…)
Keeping in mind the WSJ is owned by Rupert Murdoch who has a vested interest in selling a Marco Rubio / Jeb Bush narrative, the latest version of the WSJ/NBC poll shows Trump and Carson gaining distance from the rest of the field. Conversely Carly Fiorina falls from her previous WSJ/NBC poll when they were promoting her as an alternative to the vulgarian uprising.
(Via NBC) With the backing of 25 percent of Republican primary voters, Trump is at his highest level of support in the poll since entering the 2016 race. Carson now gets the support of 22 percent of Republican voters, remaining within the margin of error of his first place rival. Last month, 21 percent of GOP primary voters said Trump was their first choice for the party’s nomination, while 20 percent picked Carson.
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio is in third place, getting support from 13 percent of GOP voters, while Ted Cruz (at nine percent, up four points since last month ) and Jeb Bush (at eight percent, up one point since last month) are in fourth and fifth place, respectively. (more…)
A University of North Florida (UNF) poll, based out of Jacksonville {*ahem*}, finds Donald Trump leading Marco Rubio and Jeb Bush amid 627 registered Florida voters (who have voted in 70% of every election since 2008)
20% of those polled identify as Hispanic/Latino.
*The poll itself is typically what would be called an “agenda poll”. Both the party conducting the poll, and the ideological presentation of the poll itself reflects intended observational bias. Lots of questions omitted from presentation, no methodology contained, and example below: (more…)
In my humble opinion – now that we are approaching the THIRD GOP debate, there should be a cutoff at 5% for Top Tier candidates. Drop the remaining candidates into alternate debate formats – No-One under 5% should be present in prime-time.
Trump, Carson, Bush, Cruz, Rubio in “Prime-Time”, all others alternate debate venue.
Lots of disclaimers in the methodology of this poll (pdf below). Consider accordingly:
I’m re-posting a portion of an earlier article below because something is beginning that will have long-term consequences. Always try to pay attention to the “bigger picture” as we travel amid the daily events.
Amid the ozone layer of political consequence the Billionaire class of Rupert Murdoch, George Soros, and yes Charles Koch operate on (and invest in) issues that pertain to their interests. They may not carry the same beliefs on down-stream issues; but in their own financial neighborhoods they are globalists first and foremost. This is why we identify them collectively as the Wall Street Class.
In the most direct and consequential sense, free flowing immigration, amnesty, and open borders play into their goals and objectives. They are diametrically opposed to -and afraid of- nationalism. The Koch Brothers are open-border advocates.
In many very deliberate ways the 2016 Presidential Election is morphing into a battle between the globalists (wall street etc., corporate media, democrats, Hillary Clinton and GOPe republicans Jeb Bush) and the nationalists represented by Bernie Sanders, Donald Trump and the largest section of the U.S. electorate.
TONIGHT: Charles Koch opens up in a rare public interview. Don’t miss it at 9p ET on #KellyFile!

This decision by Fox News (via Megyn Kelly) is part of the larger maneuver to advance Marco Rubio as the vulgarian alternative. ie. Wall Street’s “fail safe”.

♦ 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.
Another YouGov National Poll (pdf below) shows Donald Trump leading with every polled demographic. Simultaneously, hidden in the data this national poll shows how Fox News is manipulating their results by focusing on a polled electorate over 65-years-old.
The full poll data is below, however I’ve pulled out the key metrics so you can see how the candidates line up amid electoral support. (more…)
