This is an ACTION ALERT for those of you following the RNC/GOPe road map and actively engaged in following the maneuvers within the Republican Party.

Previously we shared the RNC rule changes which modified all primary elections between March 1st and March 14th 2016 to make delegate distributions “Proportional” based on a percentage of the vote.  All contests held on or after March 15th 2016 were then winner-take-all (or some assembly therein).

The construct of the 2014/2015 rule changes were specifically created to make the pathway for Jeb Bush and block any candidate who was able to garner a “movement” coalition, or what the RNC called a “momentum candidate” (ie. Non-Jeb)  To assist in that endeavor the GOPe road map entailed a “splitter strategy” to fracture the vote and create the pathway for Jeb Bush.

However, as most are well aware, since Donald Trump entered the race the RNC/GOPe road map was thrown off track and modifications to the original plan have been ongoing over the past several months. (more…)

The DNC has told their own Vice-Chairwoman to skip the Las Vegas debate because she was non-compliant in expressing that she believed in more debates.

The New York Times is reporting representative Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii,  said she was disinvited (polite word for banned) from the first Democratic presidential primary debate in Nevada after she appeared on television and called for more debates. 

New York Times […]  Ms. Gabbard confirmed on Sunday that her chief of staff received a message last Tuesday from the chief of staff to Representative Debbie Wasserman Schultz, the chairwoman of the national committee, about her attendance at the debate. A day earlier, Ms. Gabbard had appeared on MSNBC and said there should be an increase beyond the current six sanctioned debates.

[…] The person close to the committee insisted: “She was not uninvited. The D.N.C. team wanted this first debate to have all the focus on the candidates. Gabbard’s people were told that if they couldn’t commit to that, since Tulsi was trying to publicly divide the D.N.C. leadership last week, then they should consider not coming.” (more…)

In an appearance at the No Labels Problem Solver Convention in New Hampshire, Donald Trump talks about campaign finance reform, immigration reform, the debt, and climate change. He also takes questions on health care, debt, ISIS and jobs.

The “No Labels” Group is a leftist front group started by Jon Huntsman (GOPe candidate in 2012)  *Note* Abby Huntsman (Daughter) recently hired by Fox News

Mr. Johnson channels his inner Peter Finch (Howard Beale) and let’s everyone know he too is angry, and he’s not going to take it any more!!

The rising up continues….

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.

Did you ever sit on, or look at, a big passenger airplane and think to yourself:

“I wonder if the landing gear would retract if you hit the button the wrong way while we are just sitting here”?

(Story Here)

Sheesh, can you imagine being the guy(s) who were doing the inspection that lead to this outcome?  D’oh.

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 †

“Polarizing” is a descriptive term used by a pontificating media to disparage various elements they find antithetical to their own worldview.  Generally, when the term is used it is wrongly assigned. However, in the case of Ted Cruz it’s unfortunately accurate.

When Jason Johnson sits down to discuss his pathway to the nomination with George Will, it says more about Jason Johnson than it does about those who read Will’s opinion of the aforementioned pathway.  What it essentially says is there’s a need to affirm something that isn’t factually supported by any measure of quantifiable empirical evidence.

However, when you look at the recent CBS survey result (discussed here) what you’ll identify is half of the Ted Cruz supporters themselves state they don’t think he is electable.  Hence, you find the motive for Cruz Campaign Strategist Mr. Jason Johnson to give the outline; fraught with intellectual dishonesty though it may be.

Yes, 10% of the Republican Primary Voters hold ‘most-favorable-status’ opinion of Ted Cruz, yet the number evaporates to 5% when asked “can he win”?  Ergo the Cruz dilemma.

The expressed “Cruz pathway” carries numerous contingencies requiring an electorate to travel with the Cruz team on faith alone.  And yes, that’s an intended double entendre, because faith is the underlying element of the entire campaign.  (Insert first alarm bell here). (more…)

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?

BOOM !!  That essential and critical question/answer destroys the GOPe (establishment) talking point of “electability“.  By a stunning margin the Republican Primary Voter view Donald Trump as the best candidate to win in 2016.   Stick that in your pipe George Will and Karl Rove!

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…)
