keepthefaith Posted September 22, 2015 Posted September 22, 2015 Whoever can persuade voters will win. The 4 with that are most persuasive IMO are in no particular order: Fiorina, Trump, Rubio and Christie. Cruz should be on this list too, but there is just something about him that turns me off even though I like his position on many things.
Rob's House Posted September 23, 2015 Posted September 23, 2015 Though he wouldn't necessarily be my choice, my guess is Kasich ends up the nominee. Wouldn't surprise me. If would be consistent with the trend across the last 2 cycles. And again, all the liberals who claim to be moderates who would vote for a Republican if Republicans weren't so extreme will once again pass up the moderate for a far left idealogue.

GG Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 There's way too much political correctness in politics & media, and The Donald is the one who will fix it. ...... Unless the Un-PC talk is directed at him. Behold, Mr. Thin Skin.

Unless the Un-PC talk is directed at him. Behold, Mr. Thin Skin. Lowry knew precisely what he was doing last night, and Trump bit hook, line and sinker. I've said it before but it bears repeating...Trump could walk away with the presidency if he would do the one thing regular Republicans want him to do: take all the effort he uses as a cry-baby who whines about the other GOP candidates, and apply it toward Hillary and Bernie. But no. Kinda makes you wonder why, no?

Kinda makes you wonder why, no? lol, you guys still believe he's a Dem plant to help Hillary? as for the GOP embracing him, that could never happen because (1) he offends Latinos, and (2) they don't know whether he'll play ball with the Chamber of Commerce and other big business interests. The South Park ep was hilarious, btw
B-Man Posted September 24, 2015 Posted September 24, 2015 FRANK RICH NAILS THE TRUMP PHENOMENON: ‘A MUCH-NEEDED WRECKING BALL:’ Frank Rich hates Republicans, hates conservatives and is just about as reliable a liberal as they come. He’s also generally wrong about everything, from the worth of Andrew Lloyd Webber’s musicals to contemporary politics. But, man, does he nail the appeal of The Donald and the seething hot mess that is the GOP establishment and the entire political establishment in general,”

Ozymandius Posted September 26, 2015 Posted September 26, 2015 I don't necessarily believe this data, but interesting nonetheless: http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/monkey-cage/wp/2015/09/25/if-republicans-nominate-a-strong-conservative-it-could-hurt-them-on-election-day-a-lot/ If we assume that there is zero percent chance of a successful third party Trump run, he has a 54 percent chance of being elected president if he is the GOP nominee. Under the plausible assumption that Trump’s true electability falls in between these two estimates, he is as electable as Bush and Kasich and more electable than Fiorina and Rubio.

Trump doesn't know how close he is to becoming President, and likely won't get there because he's incapable of self assessing and refining his message and he's apparently incapable of articulating solutions with facts, numbers and important details. If he had some of these skills and put them to use he'd be running away with it.

B-Man Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 (edited) Hey, y’all! There’s a new poll out from NBC/WSJ/Telemundo on how Latinos view the GOP presidential candidates. Not looking good, right? Poll: Latinos Give Poor Marks to Trump, GOP - NBC News Nearly three in four Latinos say they have a negative view of Trump, with 67 percent saying their view is "very negative." But there’s something a little odd about who’s not included in the poll. That’s right: the two Latino GOP presidential candidates are missing: Let’s keep in mind that the poll is a national sample of just 250 Latino adults with a high margin of error, which makes its usefulness even more suspect: The NBC/WSJ/Telemundo oversample of Latinos included interviews with 250 Latino adults between September 20 and September 24. The margin of error is +/- 6.20 percent. But this still doesn’t explain why Rubio, who was polled in the last NBC/WSJ/Telemundo oversample of Latino voters in July, was left out Also note that only 73 percent of the respondents were registered to vote. .

Chef Jim Posted September 30, 2015 Posted September 30, 2015 You could take Trump's ideas regarding immigration and pose the idea to Hillary supporters and you'd get a decent percentage that would agree. You could do the same with Trump supporters posing Hillary's ideas to them at Trump's and they'd love it. People are !@#$ing idiots.
