Trump: I’ve always liked Cruz and haven’t ruled him out as VP [not a Canucki anchor baby?]
Post Date: 2016-02-05 18:00:10 by Tooconservative
22 Comments
One Red State diarist wonders whether Trump’s four-day journey from gracious concession to sober self-reflection about his ground game to shrieking about fraud and a do-over in Iowa to low-key “it’s in the past” dismissal means that he’s actually insane. Old theory: Trump is erratic. New theory: Trump is bananas. I don’t think he’s bananas. I think this is what it looks like when a candidate decides to test out new lines of attack in real time, with the entirety of the media hanging on his every word, instead of with focus groups behind closed doors. In a striking reversal of rhetoric, Donald Trump would not rule out Ted Cruz as his hypothetical ...

Marco Rubio’s 7 Top Achievements in U.S. Senate
Post Date: 2016-02-05 08:29:31 by cranky
11 Comments
Following Rick Santorum’s inability to name a single achievement of Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL), the media sought to answer the question for themselves. Yet many reporters appear to have come up empty handed. As The Washington Post’s Chris Cillizza writes, a “major part of the problem is that Rubio doesn’t have all that many accomplishments in the Senate.” “When Rubio is asked to name his single greatest achievement in the Senate, do you hear crickets?” tweeted the National Journal’s Ron Fournier. Though Rick Santorum was unable to name the accomplishments of the man he just endorsed, there are indeed several accomplishments that are quite noteworthy. ...

Trump resists staff calls to change course

In the lead-up to Donald Trump’s loss in Iowa, staffers sought additional funding for campaign infrastructure and were denied. Now, six days from the New Hampshire primary and looking for his first win, Trump is still refusing to shake up his ground game. He has added just one paid organizer in the state, a move that came a month ago. Instead, he is pushing ahead with plans to campaign outside of the state in the final week of voting and will count on the glamour of famous surrogates, including his sons, who plan to tour New Hampshire beginning this weekend. Even as Republicans here warn that Trump does not appear to have the ground game to match his sky-high expectations and the ...

Shock PPP national poll: Trump 25, Cruz 21, Rubio 21
Post Date: 2016-02-04 14:17:37 by Tooconservative
17 Comments
Cruz’s numbers here aren’t a shock — he’s been in the high teens and low twenties for awhile — but Trump hasn’t dipped as low as 25 percent in a national poll since November and Rubio hasn’t seen a number as high as 21 percent since … ever. That makes some righty poll-watchers nervous since PPP’s credibility has been attacked in the past. Not only are they liberal, they were the subject of a famous critique of their methodology by Nate Cohn in TNR a few years ago. If you’re looking to throw out this result, which no other pollster has captured, there you go. On the other hand, RCP finds them credible enough to include them in their poll ...

Trump last night: In retrospect, we could have done much better with our ground game in Iowa [cheap bastich]

As I said in the last post, what makes this morning’s “fraud!” screeching especially bizarre is that Trump had been sober about why he really lost in the aftermath of Monday night’s upset. At his presser yesterday in New Hampshire, he conceded that skipping the debate might have backfired, a claim for which there’s some evidence in the most accurate pre-caucus poll of Iowa. Then he went on Fox News, where he was asked if his GOTV operation was as good as it needed to be to counter Cruz’s famously sophisticated data-analytics team. Nope, Trump admitted. “We didn’t have much of a ground game because I didn’t think I was going to be winning,” ...

CNN, NOT Cruz staff, responsible for Ben Carson campaign suspension ‘rumor’
Post Date: 2016-02-03 20:39:08 by Tooconservative
15 Comments
SEE UPDATES BELOW (Please come back for updates, as this article is being regularly updated) Evidently, a damaging “rumor” that Dr. Ben Carson was suspending his campaign started during a Monday broadcast on CNN at around 7:43 pm est, while the Iowa caucus was in full swing. The “rumor” led to Cruz campaign staffers informing their precinct captains that they should urge caucus-goers to vote for Ted Cruz. The Cruz camp, along with many other media sources had the same impression. Consider this article at Business Insider, which still has the original link: The article, written by Pamela Engel, explains in an updated version: Ben Carson’s campaign on ...

Cruz: Let’s face it, Trump is “losing it” and might nuke Denmark on a whim as president

Skip to 1:20 below for the key bit. If you’ve been waiting for Cruz to hammer the point that Trump is erratic and potentially dangerous as president, a fear that seemed to have resonance in Iowa, here it is in spades. That’s a smart way to appeal to undecideds, I think, even more so than attacking Trump’s conservative heresies because unpredictability is a quality that most voters naturally disdain in someone running for the world’s most powerful job. Even if you’re at peace with Trump deviating here and there from Reagan orthodoxy, chances are you’re not thrilled at the thought of presidential tweetstorms whenever he doesn’t get his way on something. ...

Progressivism’s Vanquished Foe—Conservatism GOP Politics in a Nutshell (Part 3 of 3)
Post Date: 2016-02-03 18:17:12 by Deckard
4 Comments
Note: This is an excerpt from Progressivism: A Primer on the Idea Destroying America (2014).  The utter failure of conservative Republicans to combat progressivism in any meaningful way explains the nature of GOP politics today.  Like the Seinfeld sitcom, it is much ado about nothing, but without the laughs. Having failed to roll back any major progressive program in the last 100 years, how does the GOP manage to keep the votes and donations of the rank and file flowing in sufficient quantities to keep the GOP machine in power? Highly paid and talented GOP consultants have brilliantly risen to the challenge.  There must be something that keeps the troops anteing up their ...

The Big Loss For Donald Trump: The Dog That Didn't Bark [new voters, Iowa] [Full Thread]
Post Date: 2016-02-03 08:31:44 by Tooconservative
59 Comments
Before getting to that, let me pass along a theory from Pat Caddell. Pat Caddell noted that New Hampshire voted for Clinton in 2008, after Obama had won Iowa. He doesn't think New Hampshire really loved Clinton. Rather, given that Obama had won Iowa, New Hampshire voters were confronted with a dilemma: If we vote for Obama, essentially Obama is the winner of the entire primary. Back to back wins will make him nigh-unstoppable. Caddell's idea is that it wasn't that New Hampshire was really backing Clinton, so much as it was saying "Let's make sure this Obama is really acceptable, let's have a longer nomination process." He thinks that given all the talk that ...

Ben Carson on Monday night accused his opponents of conducting "dirty tricks" directed at his campaign and after the results from the Iowa caucus came in, spreading the false rumor that he had suspended his campaign. Carson made the claim in an email to supporters after Sen. Ted Cruz was declared the winner of the Iowa caucuses. Carson came in fourth with 9.3 percent of the vote, behind Cruz, Donald Trump, and Sen. Marco Rubio."For months, my campaign has survived the lies and dirty tricks from opponents who profess to to detest the games of the political class, but in reality are masters at it," Carson said in the email. "Even tonight, my opponents resorted to ...

Exclusive — Donald J. Trump Makes the Case that Electing Him President Is the Only Way to Stop Obamatrade
Post Date: 2016-01-31 08:38:14 by cranky
3 Comments
DES MOINES, Iowa — Donald J. Trump, a billionaire and currently the front-running 2016 GOP presidential candidate, made the case exclusively to Breitbart News on Saturday that the only way to stop Obamatrade is to elect him President of the United States. Obamatrade is the combination of and intersection between the Trade Promotion Authority (TPA), which passed Congress last year and greases the skids for the congressional approval of various trade deals by lowering U.S. Senate vote thresholds from 60 votes to 51 votes and killing the ability of Congress to amend those deals, and those various trade deals. Perhaps the most egregious of those globalist trade deals is the Trans Pacific ...

Ted Cruz: A Vote for Rubio Is a Vote for Amnesty, a Vote for Trump Is a Vote for Obamacare
Post Date: 2016-01-31 08:36:19 by cranky

Republican presidential candidate Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) is ramping up his attacks on rivals Donald Trump and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-FL) (R-TX), telling voters in Iowa that “a vote for Marco Rubio is a vote for amnesty, and a vote for Donald Trump is a vote for Obamacare.” Earlier Saturday, Cruz released a new ad titled “No More Deals,” which goes after Trump for being a crony who will strike deals with his Democratic friends if he’s elected president of the United States. The ad insinuates that Trump would govern like former House Speaker John Boehner and Senator Minority Leader Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and give America legislation like Obamacare. Cruz is also ...

How President Obama’s campaign used big data to rally individual voters. By Sasha Issenberg on December 19, 2012 Why It Matters The Obama 2012 campaign used data analytics and the experimental method to assemble a winning coalition vote by vote. In doing so, it overturned the long dominance of TV advertising in U.S. politics and created something new in the world: a national campaign run like a local ward election, where the interests of individual voters were known and addressed. This story was originally posted in three installments. Two years after Barack Obama’s election as president, Democrats suffered their worst defeat in decades. The congressional majorities that ...

By Brandon Turbeville For those who may be unaware, the Council on Foreign Relations is essentially a sister organization to the Royal Institute of International Affairs, one of the primary Anglo-American policy developers, and functions as one of the most effective direct control mechanisms in the world in regards to government-based decisions and governmental policy. It is from the RIIA and the CFR, as well as the other relevant sister organizations set up in nations all across the world, that the direction in which the world will go is decided and implemented through a number of other front organizations, conferences, publications, foundations, and NGOs.

Campaigning in style: How Jeb Bush blew through his war chest

NEW YORK (Reuters) - There were stays at boutique hotels featuring rooftop pools, private soirees at members-only, jacket-and-tie clubs and fundraisers at the Four Seasons, the St. Regis and the Mandarin Oriental. In the world of Jeb Bush, the campaign for the 2016 Republican presidential nomination has at times been a whirl of private planes and high-end affairs, according to the federal filings of Bush’s campaign and his Super PAC, Right to Rise, which can raise unlimited funds for Bush as long as it does not coordinate directly with him. It is not unusual for U.S. presidential candidates to fly private or even sometimes stay in luxury hotels. But some disgruntled donors say they ...

Why Donald Trump Is Merely the Lesser of Two Evils

When Trump’s presidential campaign first began, everyone was baffled by how quickly he rose in the polls and left every other contender in the dust. In retrospect, his success makes sense. Trump managed to resonate with voters who were tired of the establishment, and wanted anybody but Bush or Clinton. They were tired of Ivy League pontificators, and were ready for a candidate who said whatever he wanted without any kind of filter. It was almost as if Trump stumbled upon a secret cheat code for winning elections. Say what you want in simple terms, no matter how brash or un-PC it may sound, and the people will notice you and respect you. This has allowed him to wriggle out of every ...

With mom still running, Chelsea Clinton’s already gearing up for White House bid

The private invite to Chelsea Clinton’s Wednesday night fund-raiser, to be held at a swanky Upper East Side residence, reads that it’s in support of her mother’s 2016 presidential bid. But some of the big spenders plunking down the big bucks to attend say Chelsea’s future in politics has been the talk of her campaign rallies. “You’re seeing the beginning of Chelsea Clinton preparing to run,” says a donor who attended Chelsea’s rally at Dr. Paul Boskind’s Midtown home last week, where “limited availability guest” entry started at $250 and $2,700 “champion” tickets included a photo with Chelsea. Our insider says: “A ...

Rand Paul did not participate at all in the last debate after he fell short of qualifying for the main stage. | AP Photo Sen. Rand Paul is poised to make his return to the main-stage Republican presidential debate on Thursday. The cutoff for the polls that will be used to decide which candidates qualify for the main stage and which are bumped down to the undercard debate is 5 p.m. Tuesday. The Paul campaign earlier in the day announced a conference call “with political reporters this evening to discuss the 2016 election cycle, Iowa caucus, and upcoming RNC/Fox News debate.” Fox News has set the same criteria for qualification as last week’s Fox Business News debate: the ...

Cruz Bets on Tradition to Upend Trump in Iowa [Cruz army of precinct captains]

DES MOINES — Among the hundreds of Ted Cruz volunteers that have cycled through a dorm-like outpost here, a select group proudly calls itself the "2 Percenters." They are fans who remember when Cruz was a decisive underdog against then-Lt. Gov. David Dewhurst, polling in single digits before pulling off an upset win in the 2012 U.S. Senate election in Texas. Now they are putting their lives on hold to help his presidential bid in Iowa, where Cruz has slowly risen to the top of the Republican field and emerged as the chief rival of billionaire Donald Trump. For Timothy Hoy, a Republican activist from Dallas, the Feb. 1 caucuses carry added significance: They fall almost five ...

A veteran of Presidential campaigns stretching over four decades, Caddell has had a front-row seat at many political defining moments in recent history. For Caddell, the 2016 ...
