As if there was any remaining doubt about the RNC/GOPe road map.  Well here ya go.  Jeb Bush just hired Ray Sullivan who was previously working with Austin and Henry Barbour on Rick Perry’s campaign efforts.
The Barbours’ were the bag-men for Mitch McConnell and the NRSC hit team along with Brad Dayspring when they went after Chris McDaniel in Mississippi primary ’14 (racist attack ads, and paying Dems to vote in primary).  
In essence Jeb is aligning/confirming his scorched earth election intents, and shoring up the “splitter strategy” for Texas – presumably along with Rove.
(Via The Hill)  The Bush campaign has recruited Ray Sullivan, who ran the pro-Perry super-PAC network that raised more than $17 million, tapping a vein of Texas money that’s been waiting to be redirected since Perry quit the race on Sep. 11.
Sullivan’s recruitment, first reported by the Texas Tribune on Thursday, could give Bush supporters an even greater advantage than they already have in raising huge sums of money for the former Florida governor. The pro-Bush Right to Rise PAC set records when it raised more than $100 million before June 30. (more…)

The Charge of The Vulgarians Continues

The latest Quinnipiac Poll is released today (full pdf format below).  Despite a well coordinated RNC/GOPe strategy, “Operation Hummingbird“, Donald Trump continues to maintain a sizable lead.
Obviously the non-Trump coalition of Establishment Republican Party insiders will seek to parse the polled results and internals continually seeking to diminish the risk represented by Trump to their grip on power.  However, Donald Trump is in the perfect position to eliminate the well planned RNC/GOPe road map to nominate Jeb Bush.

Governor Bobby Jindal had launched the most vitriolic of attacks against Donald Trump and now is polling at ZERO.  Governor George Pataki joined Jindal in his pre and post debate attacks against Trump, and finds himself joining hands with Jindal around a similar tent, ZERO. Over the past month Senator Rand Paul was the third most vitriolic attack dog, and has now dropped to 1%. (more…)

Here’s the South Carolina Townhall event from earlier today with candidate Donald Trump:

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 †

Knowing Operation Hummingbird was increasing with exponential frequency – We suspected the full-throated Trump hate would be showcased and polished on Fox News today. In anticipation of this display we sent out the following tweet:

LOL Trump Hater, and Jeb's Salem Media tool, Rich Lowry (NRO) shows up as guest on @megynkelly Go Figure #KellyFile #OperationHummingbird

As predicted, we were not disappointed.
Against the backdrop of National Review previously claiming Donald Trump’s comments about Carly Fiorina were “sexist”; tonight on Megyn Kelly NRO editor-in-chief Rich Lowry appeared on the Kelly File with Megyn Kelly.
The YouTube ID of cAkGD-otks4?feature=player_embedded is invalid.

Look Trump attacks everyone but she’s become a much bigger target. And I think part of what’s going on here is that last debate. Let’s be honest, Carly cut his balls off with the precision of a surgeon.

Notice Megyn Kelly’s gleeful and giddy ‘too-cute-by-half’ reaction.  Now imagine if the same thing was said about a female candidate. (more…)

“Operation Hummingbird” is dependent upon the general Republican electorate/audience and media consumer being swayed by optics and manipulation as a strategy.  In essence full-throated “gaslighting“.
Cutting through that intent and getting to the substance of truth is really not too difficult, but you won’t find many outlets (new media or old) willing to go there.  However, as you are aware for us the Truth Has No Agenda, and Sunlight Is The Best Disinfectant.
We begin by watching this video of Carly Fiorina appearing on the Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and the discussion of a Muslim candidate eligible as U.S. President:

Just sticking with raw data, and trying to avoid injecting opinion, now consider this: (more…)

This report specifically states the FBI has recovered “work-related” email from the server used by Hillary Clinton.

(Via Bloomberg)  The FBI has recovered personal and work-related e-mails from the private computer server used by Hillary Clinton during her time as secretary of state, according to a person familiar with the investigation.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation’s success at salvaging personal e-mails that Clinton said had been deleted raises the possibility that the Democratic presidential candidate’s correspondence eventually could become public. The disclosure of such e-mails would likely fan the controversy over Clinton’s use of a private e-mail system for official business.
The FBI is investigating how and why classified information ended up on Clinton’s server. The probe probably will take at least several more months, according to the person, who described the matter on condition of anonymity because the investigation is continuing and deals with sensitive information.

UPDATE:  Full Poll pdf Results released earlier today (below) Graphic Updated
FLORIDA – Marco Rubio has overtaken Jeb Bush among Florida Republicans, as he benefits from positive reviews of his performance in the most recent presidential debate.
A Florida Atlantic University poll to be released Wednesday shows Rubio, the state’s junior senator, is in second place in the Republican primary field in Florida. His political mentor, former Gov. Jeb Bush, is in third place.

[…]  That confirms Florida’s status as the most important swing state in the presidential election — it could go either way and it awards more than 10 percent of the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency. (more…)

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.
