Conscience Clause in RNC Delegates Future?
The anti-Trump movement growing from within the RNC delegates is pushing to add a “conscience clause” to the convention rules to allow delegates to vote for the candidate that best aligns with their conscience, presumably not Donald Trump. Even if such a “conscience clause” is introduced at the Republican convention, the strategy will simply not work.

Big Win for Kasich
John Kasich claimed another big win after Ted Cruz announced he was suspending his campaign.
Make Carly Upright Again
At a recent campaign stop, ersatz Vice Presidential candidate Carly Fiorina accurately portrayed which direction the Ted Cruz campaign is headed. Continue reading “Make Carly Upright Again”
Republican Ethics Bar Set Even Lower
Yes, Republican standards just got set lower, if such a thing is even possible, and incredibly Donald Trump was not the one lowering the bar, although he has certainly been making an effort.
Troy Story
Donald Trump has been making “birther” claims this whole campaign that Ted Cruz is not a natural born citizen and not eligible to be elected President. Well, he was born in Canada, eh? I am not prepared to go into a Constitutional interpretation here as both Cruz and Trump weave in and out of the Constitution whenever it suits their needs. My point is that after losing to Cruz in the Wisconsin Republican primary election, Trump has completely confused his birther argument against Cruz along with his followers.
Trump’s Wisconsin Mistake
The political gasbag pundits on TV can analyze all they want how super PAC’s derailed the Donald Trump campaign for at least a little while in Wisconsin. They missed what really was Trump’s downfall, but the people of Wisconsin did not.

Insults Fly at Republican Town Hall

Cruz Campaign Takes a Hit
Just as the Cruz campaign grabbed a little momentum yesterday when Ted Cruz overwhelming won the Utah Republican caucus, it suffered a momentum-halting, huge setback today.
Trump Threatens Cruz’s Wife
It seems completely normal to hear that Republican Presidential candidate Donald Trump is threatening Ted Cruz, but now the wives are involved, the gloves are off and food may be spilled.
After an anti-Trump PAC tweeted out revealing pictures of Melania Trump from a GQ photoshoot, husband Donald came to her aid and threatened via twitter to “spill the beans” on Heidi Cruz. He didn’t provide more details about what dirt he was planning to dish on Heidi. I hope it is not the police report from 11 years ago that indicated she was having some mental health incident. Yawn. I mean, she MARRIED Ted Cruz. I think anyone would have mental health challenges being married to that creepy guy.
Last Republican Debate Canceled
The final Republican debate has been canceled, but not because Donald Trump and John Kasich have decided not to participate.

Chicago Proud Today
Let me see if I have this straight. Donald Trump mocked Bernie Sanders when protesters interrupted campaign appearances of Sanders last summer.
Weapons of Republican Percussion
As I watched the penultimate Republican primary debate last night, I speculated about what orchestral percussion instrument each candidate would play.
Marco? Rubio! Marco? Rubio!
In honor of Marco Rubio’s crashing and burning presidential campaign, I suggest the kid’s swimming pool game of tag formerly known as Marco Polo now be called Marco Rubio. That’s about the only thing that will ever be named after him as it is becoming clear that there will never be a Marco Rubio Presidential Library. Consider this …
Happy International Women’s Day 2016!
The 2016 International Women’s Day theme is Pledge For Parity.
Release the Trump Tape?
Marco Rubio and Ted Cruz sure want Donald Trump to release a supposedly secret tape.
I’m Excited About Being Wrong
I swear I heard that the previous Republican debate was the final one. Hence, this highly entertaining blog post about the debates ending too early was generated by yours truly too early as it turns out. My mistake, but I’m ready to celebrate.
And Then There Were 3 … Stooges
Now that Jeb! has exited the Republican Presidential primary race, we are left with 3 legitimate contenders: Donald Trump, Ted Cruz & Marco Rubio, the 3 Stooges of the Republican party.
