I'll take Rubio over that corrupt crook Hillary any day.

You don't get to be a politician in this country by not being a sleazebag.  They have to make too many deals along the way.

My bold. I actually agree with this 100%. I never see it as voting for a good person, I always see it as voting for the lesser of 2 evils. In the case of Trump and Hillary though, I don't think there is a lesser.

Last night, on MSNBC's All In, former RNC chairman Michael Steele... one of the few republicans I have any respect for... said that if Trump has the majority of delegates and they try to prevent him from being the nominee at the convention "all hell would break loose."  He called it a 'civil war.'  Seriously.  Is there anyone who thinks that Trump's fans would just calmly bend over and take it up the ass?

Trump/Christie just might be able to pull that off.

Now, I've long predicted that the Establishment GOP will find some way to fuck Trump, even if they have to resort to a brokered convention. I stand by that prediction. But -- damn! -- I'll be disappointed if it turns out I'm right. I'm ready to see grown men weep on Fox News. I'm ready for the public mass nervous breakdown on the Right that would ensue if Trump got the nomination. I'm ready for the torches and pitchforks.

I've glimpsed the promised land, and I want to see the milk, honey, and blood flow!

You'll get even better with a brokered convention: you'll get a Donald Trump Meltdown©.

Atlas shrugged. America will, too.

True. From this point on, for me it's win-win . . . unless the bastard somehow gets elected. But I'm not holding my breath on that.
