Democracy

The GOP Elite are so worried about having a nominee they can't control who will lose the General Election...that they would hand the nomination to a candidate they think they can control who has lost terribly in the Republican Primaries. So, replace the big loser...with an even bigger loser.

Earlier today I had an interesting interaction with a person who happened to be a Hillary Clinton supporter -- although this same dynamic could have occurred had the situation been reversed I think-- with me being the fan of HRC and her the Bernie person. Exactly what we were discussing isn't even all that relevant. It was the dynamic of the conversation that struck me.

Tomorrow's primary in Wisconsin could be a remarkable turning point for the Republican party. If the results match the polling of the last week and Cruz beats Trump, the most despised Republican politician by Republicans could end up the likely nominee of their party.

In a startling display of irrational hostility, Donald Trump accidentally beat himself up in front of a raucous crowd during a rally in Phoenix, Arizona today.

Coming on the heels of Mitt Romney's unintentionally ironic attack today on Trump, the knives will be out for Trump at the debate tonight from all directions. You're invited to join us right here for a live chat during the debate, the best way on The Planet to watch a debate!

Will a bigoted reality show entertainer and billionaire come in first in a Presidential primary? Will a 74 year old Democratic Socialist top the wife of a President, a former U.S. Senator and Secretary of State? The New Hampshire primary is under way, join the conversation here throughout the day and night!

The Iowa Caucuses close their doors at 5:00pm PST tonight to start their caucusing process. We shall see if they also close the doors on some of the candidates' campaigns when they announce their results.

Satire explained, "The final straw for us was really Sarah Palin endorsing Trump. We leveraged ourselves big time into a Trump/Palin product line and lost everything when Reality came out with the identical product. We just can't compete any longer with Reality so we have to close our doors."

There is one very important number that makes it impossible for Donald Trump to win the Presidency. And ironically, it is 47%. No, it's not Mitt Romney's 47% but it's just as destructive to Trump's hopes.

How is it that gerrymandering is legal? It is in essence, the power to corrupt democracy. I certainly understand why many politicians would want gerrymandering to continue to be legal but neither they nor anyone else can argue why it is not anti-democratic.
