Super Tuesday III – Trump and Clinton prevail
And the day afterwards, President Obama nominated his choice to replace Antonin Scalia on the SCOTUS. Merrick somebody or other.
Kasich carried Ohio which was needed for a contested convention. If Cruz can suck enough delegates away from Trump, this may prove inevitable. Rubio finally met his fate in Florida where Trump smoked him. He has suspended his campaign and will save the money for another four years.
Mrs. Clinton has, for all intents and purposes, won the nom for the Dems. Bernie is all but done.
the only real questions left are who are the VEEP candidates?

March 3, 2016, perhaps the most interesting day in politics ever
First, we had Mitt “the Glove” Romney come out of the blue or from under whatever rock he has been hiding under for the last four years and give a speech that lambasted the republican front runner Donald Trump. And what a speech it was! He calls Trump, who was a big-time Romney backer four years ago, a fraud, a phony and a failed business man. Call him what you want, but I really don’t think Trump is an idiot or a failed businessman. Romney, actually advocated a contested convention by suggesting voters vote for Rubio in FL and Kasich in OH, should STFU and go back under his rock. Deep under. He did more damage to the party of Lincoln and Reagan in that speech than Trump has done in the entire campaign. Don’t they realize how horrific they come across? How stupid and petulant they sound? He is a failed candidate and the principal architect of Obamacare and no one really cares what he has to say anymore since he is no longer relevant. I was surprised he got so much press, but it was planned that way and I don’t think it really worked.
Then, the debate. Just wow. The thing devolved quickly into a shouting match and a “whose got the bigger dick” contest. I have concluded, after watching the debate and reading the reviews of it today, that John Kasich has the biggest schlong on that stage by a goodly margin. His balls must dwarf those of Ted “Don’t Call me Tom” Cruz and Marco “The Little Bot” Rubio. Kasich did not engage in silly personal attacks. He did not insult his opponents or make snide personal comments. He didn’t talk over the other debaters or the moderators. He was respectful and intelligent and offers real hope and good ideas. Kasich comes to the dance with nearly impeccable credentials. He doesn’t shout. He has real Head of State experience and serious cred in the national arena. He doesn’t act like a third grader who just got his favorite toy taken away by his diapered arch-rival in the sand box.
John Kasich would smoke Hilleroid Clinton in the general election in my opinion.
John Kasich is now my guy. Which puts me in the company of strange bedfellows since for Kasich to get the nod, he has to see a contested convention at this stage. Maybe Romney should give a few more speeches before returning to his very expensive hidey hole.
PS: Megyn Kelly is a goddess.

Trump prevails in Nevada
The results are in from Nevada and Trump trumped the field. Kasich and Carson are soon to bow out. Rubio showed a strong second and thus Ted “Not Tom” Cruz is about done too. Not long before we see a Bloomberg in this race…

Feeling the Bern? Enjoy the most hilarious bit of irony ever!
Oh, Bernie. For the man who never had a job til he was 40 (and surprise, it was a government job), this is so fitting. Please pass along to any economic illiterates you may encounter!

New Hampshire has spoken
Yesterday, it was New Hampshire’s turn in the every-4th-year-spot-light. Normally, they are a meaningless state with very little to offer the rest of the world. I hear it is lovely in other times of the year. However, on Fat Tuesday 2016, it was cold and snowy and the voters clearly stated that they are fed up with the status quo and they want something different. The Donald and The Bern won hands down. I don’t know if that is a good thing or a bad thing, but I am sure that Hilleroid is in pain again today. Rand Paul, Mike Huckabee and Rick Santorum all got votes and they weren’t running. Kasich came in second and Ted “Not Tom” Cruz, Jebidiah Shrub and Marco “The Bot” Rubio all basically tied for third. It looks like NJ Gov Chris “Big Boy” Christie will be bowing out of the race and returning to a buffet in Newark immediately. Fiorina and Carson may have seen their last campaign stops too.
Now it gets good. South Carolina and Nevada are next. The big political families (i.e.: Bush and Clinton) have a bit of an advantage in that they have more money and are better organized. They kinda know how this works and have been here before. Can you say SuperPac? Jebidiah even has his mother out barking for him and that is a good thing. He is still my guy, despite rather abysmal showings in Iowa and NH. I still like the idea of a Bush/Rubio ticket. I think the electorate is going to grow tired of xenophobic ranting and raving. I think we are not ready for Sanders (“Don’t call me Colonel”) and his democratic socialism (whatever the fuck that is). I like what he has to say for the most part but I am just not a fan of redistribution of wealth to the proletariat because that is communism. The Donald just doesn’t have the suave interpersonal skills and sage wisdom to be elected. I could be wrong and the stupid hippies of NH certainly didn’t agree.

How'”bout those Broncos?
In a stunning upset, the Denver Broncos and their 39 year old QB Peyton Place Manning won Super Bowl 50. It really wasn’t Manning’s doing, he didn’t play all that well. However, the Denver Defense and Von Miller in particular were stunning and controlled the game.
