GOP at a crossroads after Trump sweeps Super Tuesday - 2 views

  •  
    On the morning after, one thing is clear: the Republican party is at a crossroads Many party leaders and establishment Republicans see two paths ahead. One is to accept what appears to be the increasingly likely outcome in the 2016 race - that Trump will soon clinch the GOP nomination - and offer the New York businessman their blessing.

$182 million: Bernie Sanders equals Clinton - 3 views

shared by egessert on 22 Apr 16 - No Cached
  •  
    The Vermont senator began his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination last year with a sizable financial disadvantage compared to front-runner Hillary Clinton. By the end of last June, Sanders had raised just shy of $14 million for his campaign, less than a third of the $47.5 million Clinton had raised for hers.
  •  
    It's crazy how much he has raised. Considering most of his money just comes from average citizens like you and me, and not big corporations.

    she would have never got caught if she wasnt being stupid and tailgating. I bet if she wasnt tailgating she would have never got introuble in the first place!!!

Ted Cruz, John Kasich join forces to stop Donald Trump - 1 views

  •  
    Within minutes of each other, the pair issued statements saying they will divide their efforts in upcoming contests with Cruz focusing on Indiana and Kasich devoting his efforts to Oregon and New Mexico. The strategy is aimed at blocking Trump from gaining the 1,237 delegates necessary to claim to GOP nomination this summer.
  •  
    I still think that Trump will win Indiana even if it is only Cruz and him going head to head. I think whatever states that Kasich and Trump go head to head over will be won by Trump. There is a part of me that thinks that this is not a very great idea but there is a not much else they can do. Trump is gaining votes quickly.

Poll: Hillary Clinton still tops in 2016 - CNN.com - 3 views

shared by jborwick on 18 Mar 15 - No Cached
  •  
    Hillary Clinton continues to be a dominant force heading into the 2016 presidential election, according to a new CNN/ORC poll. The former secretary of state maintains a broad lead over the field of potential Democratic challengers she could face in a nomination contest and sizable advantages over the leading contenders from the Republican side in general election match-ups.
  •  
    I would think what is going on in the media right now can hurt her in the Presidential run because people might think different of her so 2016 could get a little interesting.
  •  
    Honestly, in my opinion, and take it as you will, i think that people are just choosing Hillary so we can say we got the first female president. They don't care about anything she stands for. Just like with Obama, i asked many people before he was elected, and a majority said, well it'll be a thing "get the first african american president in, the next one we will get in for the right reasons. but lets get the first one in there." so i feel its the same with Hillary, everyone wants to get the first female in. 'then they'll vote the right one in for the right reasons'

Donald Trump rages against the machine - 0 views

    "The system, folks, is rigged," Trump told supporters at a rally Monday night in Albany, New York. "It's a rigged, disgusting, dirty system." Trump is coming to grips with the creeping possibility that he could narrowly lose the Republican nomination at a contested GOP convention despite landing in Cleveland with the most delegates.

Kavanaugh’s confirmation all but assured - POLITICO - 7 views

  •  
    I still find it quite astonishing that he was confirmed onto the Supreme Court, just for the sole fact that his accusations were those of pretty serious ones. No matter if he was found guilty or not, I believe that people will still have that distrust in him, which is really hard since he should be looked up to as the highest honorary power in the United States.
  •  
    I think its astonishing that even after he was found not guilty you still believe he shouldn't be on the supreme court. He's had a pretty good run in the court systems working as a clerk and a partner in a law firm he was nominated to be a judge by George W Bush. Now he's on the supreme court. I'd say that's a pretty successful career. But he shouldn't have this job due to accusations?I believe that's wrong
  •  
    I think Kavanaugh being accepted was the right decision. The accusations that the women had made about him were not proven to be true nor false so you can't punish a man for something he possibly didn't do, innocent until proven guilty. The women also came forward right as they heard he was in the running to be on supreme court, the actions that they took was very suspicious.

  •  
    Clinton is almost certain to clinch the Democratic nomination by the time the California race is decided on June 7. But with Sanders suddenly taking off in the polls, the Clinton campaign is leaving nothing to chance and pulling out all the stops to avoid ending the primary season with an embarrassing, if only symbolic, loss to Sanders.
