... he had confused New Jersey with the Middle East. That's understandable. It was in East New Jersey, Iran.

So does corporate media want people to think so and that this is a way to discredit him? Discredit? How about reflection.

It is way too early for sure, but the rumblings have started to edge towards serious discussion by at least some republican establishment types.
If Trump wins enough primary delegates to take the nomination prior to the republican convention watch for republican establishment pols to, in essence, boycott the convention. This is potentially 3rd party stuff. Real, actual, effective 3rd party stuff. If the republican establishment leaves home they will not give up politics but unfurl a new banner with, potentially, some very powerful national and state players in their new party cadre. The next 10-20 years of american domestic politics would become very interesting indeed. Reminiscent of the Federalist-Whig-Republican mashup of the first half of the 1800's?
Republicans to flee convention?

Generally, I wouldn't stand between a man and national fame and fortune but in this case Moose is too valuable to us here. I don't think we should give him up so easily.
The Jeffersonian Party?

Hillary - 49.9
Bernie - 49.5 Ted - 27.7Donald - 24.3 Marco - 23.1 The only unexpected was Marco Rubio finishing such a strong 3rd nearly overtaking Trump. The Republican establishment may have found their viable candidate. Neck-to-neck horse race for Hillary and Bernie will make a good show for the Democrats. On to New Hampshire next Tuesday Feb 9.

Bush 3, The Heir Apparent, apparently isn't.
After spending heavily in So. Carolina, then running out of funds in the final week, he has folded his campaign.

...one would expect more than just one person to express an interest (Anglagard above in Message 881). Hours slaving over a hot internet. All my hard work has come to naught. I am feeling so low. Nobody knows the trouble I seen.Nobody knows my sorrow.

We interrupt this thread for a important announcement of actual on-topic news.
In the South Carolina Primary: Hillary 73.5%Bernie 26.0% The moderate and conservative democrats turned out quite heavily for Hillary leaving Bernie out in the cold. Interesting to me that in the S. Car primaries there were a total of about 367,000 votes cast to the Dems and about 738,000 to the Reps. Super Tuesday March 1: AlabamaAlaska (Reps only) Am Samoa Arkansas Colorado Georgia Massachusetts Minnesota Oklahoma Tennessee Texas Vermont Virginia Ex-patriots abroad (Dems only) We now return you to your regular squabbling already in progress.

Super Tuesday is Hillary time.
On the other side it is also the time the entire country breathes a collective sigh of relief or collectively shits in its pants. I'm buying shares in Kimberly-Clark. Edited by AZPaul3, : No reason given.

With 100% of the votes reported Cruz got 57 delegates and Trump got 20. No other candidate got any. What happens to the rest of the Texas delegates? I'm not sure but I think the rest of the delegates go to the Democrat's convention for Hillary.

3/16 - 1 am Eastern
Donald - 621 delegates pledgedTed - 395 Marco - 168 John - 138 Marco Rubio has dropped out of the race after losing his home state, Florida.John Kasich won his home state, Ohio, but trails the delegate count badly. Donald Trump now has more than half the 1237 delegates needed for nomination already pledged to him. Hillary - 1094 pledged with another 467 super delegates in supportBernie - 774 pledged with 26 supers in support At 1561 pledged and support delegates Hillary now has more than half the 2382 delegates needed for nomination. With the Democrat leadership fully on board, barring a Bernie-led miracle (2405 delegates still to be selected), Hillary will win the Democratic Party nomination. The Republican leadership, however, is not so well enamored of their lead candidate and are, so rumor has it, maneuvering (1136 delegates still to be selected) to prevent a first ballot win at the convention thus releasing the majority of delegates from their pledges to specific candidates and into a brokered convention. This is gonna be fun. Edited by AZPaul3, : No reason given. Edited by AZPaul3, : No reason given.
