QOTD: "Trump is spending his own money on local political operators in Iowa and New Hampshire so he can compete at the street level, but without the massive overhang of the consultancy and their party patrons...

...That’s certainly part of what is unnerving Conservative Inc about the Trump campaign. If this crude rich guy can buy his way into the game and then shove aside the commentariat on his way to the nomination, why will anyone bother catering to them in the future? ...

...The parties will still have a role as the legislative bodies are regulated to the benefit of political parties. As dangerous as Caesarism sounds, the American system allows for the legislature to claw back its authority in hurry if it cares to do it. Maybe the specter of billionaires buying the White House is what’s needed to slap the political parties to their senses and maybe is is what’s needed for the Congress to reassert its role in government." --The Z Man

"Conservative, Inc"?!?! I think you mean "Establishment RINO Weasel Inc.", there fixed it for you. There is no evidence of any real conservatism in Washington DC-- outside of Mike Lee and Ted Cruz and maybe 3 or 4 others...less than 25 reps could be found to vote against the last Amnesty bill, so the actual makeup of DC politics is 90% Progressives and less than 10% Conservatives. That the Progressive buffoon Trump gets the support he does just shows the depth of the Crony Capitalist vein in that town. Real Conservatives value the rule and supremacy of Constitutional law- I haven't heard Trump even say that particular C word.

And as zer0's administration rolls along, people don't pay attention to the scandals within the Scandal. I listened to a part of Kerry's UN speech several days ago and when you brush away the fairy's, the pixie dust, the unicorns, and the rainbows, at the heart of it was a disgraceful, and poorly written speech about hope and learning. That this tripe would be parroted in front of the world is a reproach to the United States, but it is de rigueur now.
And now the Press trots out the latest stories that are told to inflame and sway the ignorant conservative masses as Hitlery sets sail for the WH. Seen her in Black Face with Bill? How about "I want to rule the world" by Long Dong Cruz? And Oh, how about that Trump? You know, Glen Beck hates him; and Barry sez the Conservative platform doesn't make sense. And on it goes as somehow this meaningful discourse sets parameters for November. This is worse that watching sausage being made, it is a mad house, and I for one will vote, but I have tuned every last bit of it out of my life.
