Fiorina and Christie leave the race. C-Span 4 AM EST. Is anyone really surprised ? They had no money (in comparison) and were as much on the attack as they articulated policy changes. Who doesn't think Carson is already gone ? Did Kasich surprise ?

What say you ?

Fiorina never stood a chance, Christie is a blowhard and a bully, i love that he gave rubio shit, but it was too much apparently:)
The amount of money Bush has spent has blown away records per vote.
Carsons practically in a coma, I dont see him going much farther.
Kasich surprised, but not unhappily, except today he has promised to defund PP.
SO he has joined the dumbfucks who wouldnt know the truth if it bit them on the arse.

I know. It seems as if few repubs in this race, miss a chance to disappoint.

I love this bit I read this morning...
its about rubio
There were a lot of long faces at Fox News Tuesday night, but there's a silver lining for Marco Rubio. Now he can go be a bartender like his dad! (Have you heard him tell the story about his father being a bartender? Rubio was his pop's best customer after the debate.)

He can wear a flowered shirt, tell yarns about his father, and if he's asked to make any complicated concoctions: JEB CAN FIX IT!

Gov. Chris Christie will always be remembered for the noble service he performed for his country Saturday night. He must have known his campaign wasn't lighting the world on fire, but he was damned if he was going to stand by and let that pretty-boy mountebank win.

Christie smacked Rubio down at the GOP debate by dramatically exposing the fact that Rubio's only skill is a weird ability to regurgitate "the memorized 25-second speech that is exactly what his advisers gave him" -- as the governor memorably put it.

In a surprising move, Rubio responded by regurgitating the memorized 25-second speech that was exactly what his advisers gave him. And then he did it again three more times.

This is what Rubio said, all within about 3 minutes:

(1) "But I would add this. Let's dispel with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing. He is trying to change this country."

(2) "And let's dispel once and for all with this fiction that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing. He knows exactly what he's doing."

(3) "Here's the bottom line. This notion that Barack Obama doesn't know what he's doing is just not true. He knows exactly what he's doing."

(4) "I think this notion -- I think this is an important point. We have to understand what we're going through here. We are not facing a president that doesn't know what he's doing. He knows what he is doing. That's why he's done the things he's done."

Far from "an important point," it's an incredibly boring point: The president knows what he's doing! But Rubio kept pounding out the words as if he were announcing the theory of relativity.

Proving that he had memorized words written by someone else, he even made the exact same grammatical error twice. Either we need to "dispel the notion" or we need to "dispense with the notion." We don't "dispel with" notions.

Public speakers fumble over their words all the time. But if they're using their own words, they don't keep making the same unusual grammatical mistake. That's the smoking gun of Rubio's party trick of passionately delivering someone else's speech.

I kinda liked Christie but I knew he never had a chance with the WEAL TWUE Conservatives since he once actually touched a Democrat.

That made him a RINO.

If nevada was before SC rubio would have had a chance. But its not.

Unless some kind of real fluke happens in South Carolina - its all over but the shouting. Trump's the nominee. Cruz needs to get within 10 points of Donald to make it interesting.

Bush has the Superpac money to go all the way to the convention - but at some point he has to realize - he missed his window. If the republicans aren't willing to sign up for 4 more years of bush (hell no) the country sure isn't.


What would it take to extend the process?

Kasich cracking 21%
or
Cruz getting within 10 pts of Donald.

My read on it is that trump will go through super tuesday gradually get 35+% of the vote. The people that don't like cruz for his personality and far right stances are more than don't like trump for his moderate policies and blowhard personality.

The clown car gets....roomer....

...But it is STILL a clown car. None of them speak like they are a President. Its all about their egos and 'being more conservative then others'. Not once did any of them really discuss a problem faced by the nation; and explain how exactly to over come it. Nor how much it would cost to over come. They could have talked about Flint, MI. State "Here is list of current problems" and "Here is how I would fix the problems with solutions....". Because that is material that is to complicated and complex for the 'Low Information Voters" to handle. The caliber of people supporting Mr. Trump have no clue how to understand that problem let alone how to fix it. All they understand is someone saying "the problem is fixed".

Watching Republican Debates verse Democratic Debates is like watching two groups of dock workers. The first group argues over which crates should go into the ship first; spending the whole day doing that. Verse the other group of dock workers argue over which can of beer to take because all the crates got on the ship in an orderly process earlier in the day. Republicans do not talk about problems faced by Americans; Democrats talk about the finer points of the solutions to those problems. Likewise, Republicans spend their time name calling each other like they are in junior high school; while Democrats are very respectful to each other and carry the discussion on at a college level.
