Joe Biden needs to get in the race quickly. The insufferable Democrat leadership are desperate to avoid talking about Bernie Sanders. It really is an embarrassing display of entitlement arrogance within the Democrat Party and their refusal to contemplate any candidate other than Hillary Clinton.
Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †
CBS has another National Poll reflecting Donald Trump with a substantive lead over the entire field of GOP candidates (Full Poll pdf below). However, beyond the leading support numbers Republican Primary Voters were asked this question:
Q17. Regardless of how you intend to vote in 2016, which one of these Republican presidential candidates do you think has the best chance of winning the general election in November 2016?
The GOPe DC apparatchik (writ large) are all-in with their demands to support Representative Paul Ryan as the next Speaker of the House (SoH).
Freedom Caucus Chairman Jim Jordan appeared on Fox News Sunday to outline what the problems are, and it has less to do with Paul Ryan “the Speaker” – and more to do with removing the GOPe stranglehold; ie. the GOPe demand on the apparatus of power.
Jim Jordan articulates the problem. The essence of the problem is what the media and GOPe want to hide.
Within those rules Jordan is describing you find out why so many of the House of Representatives are frustrated with a UniParty leadership team that demands compliance to a regime interest that remains antithetical to the desires of the electorate who sent them there.
The GOPe leadership (Boehner, McCarthy, McConnell, Cornyn) are beholden to Wall Street, The U.S. Chamber of Commerce and K-Street, they refuse to be beholden to the will of the electorate. (more…)
George Will had a column yesterday in the Washington Post about a conversation with Ted Cruz’s election strategist. Within the article Jason Johnson shares how the Cruz campaign feels they can win the GOP nomination.
The pathway, as described, is so far beyond possible, it leaves the reader wondering what exactly is the real goal of this campaign. We’ve looked at this “plan” in detail, and will outline later today. However, for those who fully understand the state-by-state primary races, you might first want to read the full plan as outlined by the Cruz team. (Here’s An Internal Tool to cross reference the states mentioned)
(Via George Will WaPo) If America’s 58th presidential election validates Ted Cruz’s audacious “base plus” strategy, he will have refuted assumptions about the importance of independent “swing” voters and the inertia of many missing voters.
Critics say his plan for pursuing the Republican nomination precludes winning the presidency. Jason Johnson, Cruz’s chief strategist, responds: “I’m working backward from Election Day,” because Cruz’s plan for winning the necessary 1,236 convention delegates is an extrapolation from his strategy for winning 270 electoral votes.
All presidential campaigns aspire to favorably change the composition of the electorate. Cruz aims to substantially reconfigure the electorate as it has recently been. (more…)
