March 4, 201610 yr There is nothing, I repeat, nothing, worth getting a time out for. Just wondering, say my piece or hold my fire. Weighing my options.
March 4, 201610 yr When your meal ticket is about to get taken away from you and your buddies, you'll say just about anything. The RNC may have offered him the nomination at a brokered convention.
March 4, 201610 yr The RNC may have offered him the nomination at a brokered convention. I'm guessing someone has been offered, but I'm not sure who at this point.
March 5, 201610 yr I'm guessing someone has been offered, but I'm not sure who at this point. I think that statement describes the state of the RNC right now.
March 5, 201610 yr I respect the man for saying what he believes no matter the backlash. 2 candidates have spent countless hours running down Trump's ability to run the country, but at the end of the debate they sheepishly said they would support this man in the general election.
March 5, 201610 yr Trump vs. Hillary = Gary Johnson for me. Agreed, of course there's not a matchup among any of these candidates that would result in a different vote from me. It's really frustrating.
March 5, 201610 yr I'm not a huge fan of Trump but I don't agree with the way the GOP regime is attempting to use every possible angle that will lead to a brokered convention. I've had other candidates on my mind to vote for besides Trump but now I think I will just vote for The Don just to send a message to Romney and the other power brokers of the party. I'm getting ready to head out to Lee County to vote in about 30 minutes. The poll at Happy Top opens at 10, so I will have plenty of time to get back to watch College GameDay, Vandy-A&M, and finally UK-LSU on Senior Day.

March 5, 201610 yr Republican voters in Kentucky are getting tossed around like rag dolls. This caucus cacophony today is due to the state GOP accommodating Rand Paul's dual run for Senate and president. And the end result may be a brokered convention with Mitch and his Boys from Dixie trumping the will of the people. Nothing like democracy in action.

March 6, 201610 yr "Mitch an his boys" .. better sit this one out. Anyone trying to broker this convention will be done politically. Maybe 100 year's ago, but people won't stand for that bs today.
March 7, 201610 yr Nothing like democracy in action. It's the worst form of govenment...except for everything else.
March 7, 201610 yr I am simply not amazed or surprised at at all. The GOP has been divided for years and just are NOW starting to realize what we non-GOP's have known for quite a while. Even with a very weak HRC candidate for the Dems, she is going to landslide the election. Many on here called for a change in the Republican Party after the Obama landslide in 2012. Those changes were to be more inclusive and understanding of diverse cultures and ways of thinking and solving problems. Instead the people in the Republican primaries and caucuses are supporting a guy that is non-inclusive and divisive. The GOP establishment is not going to lose control to an outside non-establishment type who can't be bought and who has the largest ego in America as their problem, not his divisiveness. The Dems don't have to spend a dime until late summer and then they can slam it all at the GOP candidate and have some left for the congressional races that are close. Trump has been a God Send to the Dems, even if he wins he will not bow to the old guard GOP. This may be the establishment in the GOP's last hurrah.
