Shame on the established Democratic Party for reading talking points from Rush Limbaugh about one of their candidates. Bad enough, they rig the debates by offering fewer amounts and poor viewership slots but since that has failed now they've reduced themselves to grab low hanging fruit by saying no one will vote for a socialist.

Kasich is now second in recent polls for NH, above Cruz. Way behind Trump, but at least there's some sanity.

With all of the candidates, I wonder who benefits the most from so and so calling it a day. For example if Bush were to bolt, who gets those votes?

I see Kasich getting two of his votes, Cristie 2, Rubio, Carson divide Jeb's other two votes.

What if Rubio bails? Who gets those votes?

I have a feeling alot of guys aren't going to bail because they are going to count on getting the other guys votes. For example I wonder if Christie/Bush might be paired up - where one of them gets the majority of the other guys votes. Carson - where do those people go?

Every candidate is a LOTR character:
Ben Carson as an Ent, if there were bad Ents. The Ents are the best characters in LOTR, and it really pains me to give Dr. Ben Carson the satisfaction of comparing him to a really cool wise tree who can take a joke. But since both talk and move and react at the pace of a slightly alive rock, this seems apt.

Jeb Bush as Boromir Son of Denethor, the Steward of Gondor. Boromir has daddy issues and brother issues and confidence issues, just like Jeb! He succumbs to the temptation of The Ring and tries to kill Frodo but eventually dies an honorable death, which is really the best we can hope for in terms of Jeb’s political career.

Ted Cruz as Saruman the White. Saruman is learned as hell and used to be a big deal wizard, but eventually sides with Sauron because he wants that ring. I guess in this analogy Ted Cruz was always aligned with the dark side, but he did go to two Ivy League schools.

Bernie Sanders as Bilbo Baggins. I will allow that Bernie has his [expletive] a little bit more together than Bilbo, but he is a very stubborn 74-year-old, so this seemed like the best option.

Martin O’Malley as Legolas Son of Thranduil, king of the Mirkwood elves. Martin O’Malley is so much like Legolas. He’s hot in a boring, elvish kind of way, and I can’t remember any of his lines.
plus more

What a jackass. I hope the parents take her to court. I guess you'll do anything for attention when you're stuck on the JV Stage.
