Many people have discussed the risks of putting all your viable candidacy eggs in the evangelical basket. An article via CNN outlines a group of Super-PACs and donor interests who are now setting Ted Cruz in the cross hairs.

This CNN article highlights one of the biggest challenges for any candidate who is unable to build a broad and diverse base of support. Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz, Ben Carson, Rick Santorum and Mike Huckabee are all relying heavily on Iowa voters. Similarly, Jeb Bush, Chris Christie, John Kasich, and again, Marco Rubio (firewall) are dependent on success with New Hampshire voters.

Meanwhile the breakaway frontrunner, Donald Trump, targets America-first voters, the biggest, strongest and most broad base of them all.

Washington (CNN) – Ted Cruz, staring at hundreds of thousands of dollars in negative advertisements against him in Iowa that show only signs of growing, is battling to keep pace there with his most aggressive push yet to maintain his momentum in the Hawkeye State. (more…)

The media, LEO and state attorney “uncomfortable” avoidance on the motive of Ms. Holloway -who intentionally drove into a Las Vegas crowd- continues to make the entire event seem racially motivated. 

What other reason would there be for local law enforcement to say she gave them an immediate statement on scene, but the statement itself made them “uncomfortable” discussing with the media?  Occam’s Razor = BLM Activism turned to rage.

The article below is long, and yet not a whiff of motive discussed?….

( Via LA Times ) A woman accused of intentionally plowing a car carrying her child through crowds of pedestrians on a Las Vegas Strip sidewalk spent less than two minutes Wednesday getting arraigned on murder, hit-and-run and child abuse charges. (more…)

I was meandering around the bits and pieces of an article outlining the current state of a moonbat educational story appearing Bangor Maine encapsulated within a story of a decades long teacher who is all of a sudden told her Hello Kitty Christmas tree was no longer culturally permissible, when something happened.

You see, the story is yet another typical and insufferable example of Chistmas perceived as some type of threat to the Brangelina Peacenik mindset – and yet it’s actually a little bigger.

Read the full story here.  You might find yourself saying: “yep, another example of progressive educational stupidity growing leaps and bounds beyond insufferable”.  I too had the same initial gut reaction.  That is, until I got to this part – the response from the Bangor School Superintendent: (more…)

The latest Public Policy Poll (full pdf below) shows a divergent narrative from the DMR poll of Iowa released two days ago.  The PPP Poll shows Trump on top with Ted Cruz a close second – both double digits above third place Marco Rubio:

With Senator Rand Paul also in a race to keep his Kentucky Senate seat, he is in a precarious political position.  Many anticipate a coming decision to stay in the race or exit in favor of spending additional time in his home state. (more…)

This is one of those dynamic arguments you’ll never see the leftist U.S. media bring up because the essence of their underlying ideology is only to promote those things that tear down America.

DUBAI (Reuters) – Saudi billionaire Prince Alwaleed bin Talal has called Donald Trump a disgrace to the United States following his call for a ban on Muslims entering the country, and demanded the Republican front-runner withdraw from the U.S. presidential race.

Trump triggered an international uproar when he made his comments in response to last week’s deadly shootings in California by two Muslims who authorities said were radicalized.

“You are a disgrace not only to the GOP but to all America,” Prince Alwaleed, the chairman of Kingdom Holding, said on his Twitter account, addressing Trump and referring to the Republican Party.

“Withdraw from the U.S presidential race as you will never win,” the prince added.  (link)

Mark Steyn was on Greta Van Sustern last night and delivered one of the more resoundingly common sense recaps of the entire days’ media and political insanity:

Mark Steyn website here – The last segment where Steyn points out the nonsense from the Obama administration is 100% spot on.  Unfortunately, almost every GOP candidate pounced into the furor surrounding Trump’s profoundly reasonable proposition.

The issue boils down to: (more…)

A few interesting updates today in the San Bernadino terrorist attack that killed 14 people.  Buried deep inside an ABC article we find out the ‘friend’ of Syed Farook, the man who purchased the long-guns, actually converted to Islam:

Investigators with the FBI today questioned Enrique Marquez Jr., the man who originally purchased the two “assault-style” rifles used in last week’s San Bernardino shooting in which 14 people were killed, according to law enforcement officials briefed on the probe.

[…]  An individual associated with a local mosque, who asked not to be named, said Marquez started coming there three or four years ago, after he had converted to Islam. The person said Marquez was shy and polite, but did not seem that bright. Two members of Farook’s family, but not Syed Farook, attended the same mosque, the person said.

Marquez previously worked at a Wal-Mart, and before that was employed by the California Department of Food and Agriculture, federal officials told ABC News.  (read more)

After decades of culturally-dominating politically correct drum-beating that numbs the average psyche (from accepting common sense), it might take a few minutes for the prudent position of Donald Trump to sink-in.

However, once you get beyond the trained instinct of hysteria, and focus on the substantive request, to: “shutdown Muslims entering the United States until our country’s representatives can figure out what is going on” – it actually makes a great deal of sense.

Such a position is really not the least bit controversial, and that’s exactly what makes it so brilliant on many levels.

Of course, if you are not willing to accept the concept of Islamic Jihad – and/or if you are unwilling to accept that Islamic Terrorists have been targeting us for the past decade – well, in that instance Trump’s position might seem controversial.  However, for the rest of us, it makes a great deal of sense.

Earlier today Presidential Candidate Donald Trump proposed a “freeze” on Muslim Immigration entry while national security and lawmakers evaluate current terrorist threats.  The crowd in South Carolina approves:

Fox News Stephen Hayes calls the massive South Carolina crowd a bunch of “bigots” (more…)

Anyone who is viewing the battle between Donald Trump and the media as a representative battle of thin-skinned ego is entirely missing the point.

Trump is not just taking on the construct of progressive ideology that has undermined the essence of American exceptionalism, he’s taking on the very selfish foundation they’ve used to sell out our country. Hell, he’s taking on all the “Decepticons” simultaneously.
